    Makes ice quickly as advertised. Like the sleek design, relatively quiet function, and ice volume for the price point. Cover doesn't provide much insulation so ice begins to melt quicker than competing alternatives.

    Nice little model. The icemaker on my fridge went out and the repair was going to cost $600. I got this at a fraction of the price and sits nicely on my counter. Ice does come out cloudy but quick. Not too much of a size difference between large/small cubes. Pretty quiet while running.

    Purchased for GF's house, works amazing. She was using bagged ice from the local grocery store up until we started dating. The ice would be freezer burnt and it was just a pain going to the store for ice when needed. We've been using filtered water from the store to fill it, and the ice cubes come out crystal clear and quickly. Always have ice on hand, and highly recommend. Just waiting for this to go on sale again, so I can also get one for my own house.

    ok so trying not to make this an essay but we will see. So my first purchase of this ice maker was a horrible experience. I bought one during the beginning of the summer. Turned out to be defective which I do not blame the store. I also do want to note that I bought the extended warranty, which did hurt my pocket a little but felt it was necessary. My sister a while back bought one, not sure what brand but was also defective so that was my reason for the warranty. The machine would stop making ice and the light would turn on saying the ice tray was full when clearly it wasn't. So i tried to stick it out and hope the machine was not defective but was and after a few months I called and asked what I needed to do. They told me to return it and i would get a new one. After that my new one hasn't been acting out and works just fine. I didn't pay much out of pocket just a few dollars.

    This is the best ice maker. I use it a lot. I like the small pieces of ice that it makes, it makes different sizes. It's a nice size and doesnt take up too much counter space.

    My refrigerator ice maker quit working so I decided to get a small ice maker. This one is great! It has a small footprint and fits perfectly on my utility room countertop. It makes ice quickly and without having to keep adding water. I'm very pleased with this purchase!

    I bought a different brand off of amazon a couple of years ago and never really used it till covid cut my ice supply from sonic and the gas stations that have crushed ice. Then i remembered this lil number and cleaned it and hooked it up and it was ice heaven. But i was at my mothers at the time. So when i wanted to pack it up and take it home ahe was like what about me. So i left it and bought this one let me say it works just like the first one and I'm as happy as a clam.

    Bought to replace a unit that was much older and the gears inside went all gross with rust and whatnot. It’s been great so far, quiet and produces a lot of ice for such a small maker. Great purchase, so much so that I don’t know how I’ve lived without one.

    Bought a few weeks ago. So far so good. Have been running pretty much nonstop with no issue. Makes ice quickly and much less hassle than using ice trays. If your fridge doesn't make ice, I'd recommend.

    Outstanding performance for a machine at this price. Make sure to place it in a cool place indoor, cycles shorten after machine warms up and chamber becomes cool. It stops automatically when water runs low or ice is full. Minimal water is used for a full bucket. It's super easy to set up and operate, reliable and amazing.

    I’ve run this all day every day for the last 8 months and it’s been better than I expected. It’s not loud at all, either. Not much more to say, it makes ice, quickly, and it’s little thimble shapes. Small and large cubes are not much different. If you want an ice maker, this ones great.
