    It seemed good at first, but believe all of the reviews when they say it noisy. The fan motor is too loud and because it runs a lot, you'll hear it all of the time. Ice drops are loud too but that's expected. There are others that cost less and run much quieter. Took it back for a refund.

      I'm disappointed to hear that the Insignia Portable Ice Maker with Auto Shut-Off is not meeting your expectations. Two years is a relatively short lifespan for a product, and I can understand why you're frustrated. The fact that you've had to rely on Geek Squad service to get it fixed multiple times is also concerning. At Insignia, we strive to provide reliable and long-lasting products, and it's clear that this one has fallen short of that standard. I'd like to apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and offer my assistance in finding a more reliable solution for your ice making needs.

    It doesn’t hold the ice after it makes it. You need to put the ice in the freezer afterwards. If it makes ice it should be able to keep the ice it makes without needing to put the ice in the freezer.

    Good item, we enjoyed having it “while it was working” but after 4-5 months the motor burned out. Luckily there is a warranty on it for a year but it’s just annoying that we had to go through this

    Not sure what I was expecting but it just wasn't it for me. The ice tray didn't have enough time to fill up to even have a cup of ice before they all melted. I could have just had a bad one but I ended up returning

    Was doing great until 7 months here, this was my only source of ice because my freezer didn't have a nice machine and has now completely stopped working. I'm totally sad and I'm going to look to see if there's a warranty for this and if it will be replaced. If not I'm going to look into another brand. I've always backed insignia but I don't know anymore.

    Hot price on an ice maker that is PAINTED silver. Looks to be stainless BUT only in color. Returned as it appeared easily scratched potentially making it a countertop eyesore?

    In less than a year, this product started making a loud noise when machine cycled water to make ice. It contantly runs because ice never stays frozen for long, even tried changing from large to small cubes.

    I bought this icemaker at the end of January and it stopped working today. It won’t freeze the ice no more. Of course it’s out of warranty and not returnable. It should have lasted more than a few months. A total waste of my money.
