    Liked it at first...turns out ice quickly. Pump died in two months so that was disappointing. The ice falling into the storage bucket can be loud and annoying since it is running constantly

    Ice machine

    It starts out making tons of ice cubes and after a couple months it takes almost an hour for the first batch of ice cubes. We clean it all the time and it'll help speed up the process for about a week and then back to an hour to make a batch. When I say batch I mean one cycle of ice cubes which is 8 ice cubes. Look for another one with better reviews. Also make sure you buy the warranty on it. It's been 2 years and 2 months and now it doesn't work at all. I strongly suggest you DONT BUY THIS ITEM!!!

    Not Worth it

    I have been wanting an ice machine for a few years so I finally bought this one. I couldn’t get a full tray of ice because the ice would melt, so it was a big circle all day. The machine didn’t keep ice cold, only made the ice. So u have to put ice in freezer but then the ice would freeze together in the freezer and then u have a big chunk of ice. Over all not worth it. I returned it and just bought a bag of ice.

    Very disappointed, Poorly designed & noisy. Requires constant attention. Ice reservoir fills up 20% - 30% then shuts off because ice piles up & machine thinks its full, push ice out of the way, will run some more till blocked again. Makes loud squeaking noise

    Loved the idea of this but it is VERY hard to keep clean. It builds black mold after a few weeks and tried every cleaning method possible. It becomes an annoyance.

    Worked great when I first got it, but it didn't last one year. Used it every day for a few hours, never let it run dry, kept it out of harm's way, etc. Just died tonight after less than 11 months. Should have gotten the protection plan, since I can't return it. Won't buy again.

    Do not last very long, first purchase broke about 1 year in. Returned for a replacement under warranty. Next broke just after warranty. Had to purchase 3rd. But can't live without. So if it breaks again I have a 2 year warranty

    I have now had 2 of these and both broke within 2 years. First time was literately in a week where it started to randomly leak from the fan on the side. Wet floors are a great time right. I exchanged it and the new one last a bit of time but suddenly stopped working for reasons unknown. I do not have kids or pets and i have never moved it since installing it around a year ago. I'm very disappointed in this ice maker
