A:AnswerExact decibel level alternates. Loudest sound occurs when water level is low and the pump struggles more to move the water in the storage reservoir. (This can be mitigated by keeping the water level higher) otherwise it’s mostly ‘off’ or resting and only kicks the fan on to make ice. The fan is comparable to an older refrigerator as far as sound output. Hope that helps!
A:AnswerNo. It has a large and small cube size setting, however, place the finished cubes in a freezer zipper bag and hit against your counter a few times and you'll have crushed ice.

A:AnswerClean the interior with diluted detergent, warm water, and a soft cloth, then rinse with clear water. Take out the ice basket and clean it. Unplug the water drain cap to remove all water. Replace the water drain plug before filling with water. Clean the ice maker at least once a week or every three days if your water quality is poor. * Do not use bleach or vinegar to clean the internal components
A:AnswerThe ice this machine makes is like a 1-1/2 inch finger with a hole in it. The ice is not clear, but any ice machine of this type would not make crystal clear ice. Some refrigerator ice makers do, but that is a different system (ice tray is filled and then left undisturbed until frozen and then harvested. This machine dips finger shaped freezing coils in a trough with water. The water then freezes around the coils until frozen and then harvested. Hope this helps!
