This is a great ice machine and current pricing makes it an excellent value. Can’t speak for long term reliability, but it has worked great since purchased 3 weeks ago.

We waited for it to go on sale to replace our off brand ice nugget machine. Makes quality & softer ice extremely quickly, self cleans, and fits nicely on our counter with a nice black color that’s not an eye sore. Plenty of tutorials online to maintain this machine as well. We are very happy with this purchase and feel it’s worth every penny.

Functions great! Very easy to refill the water tank. The water tank base is magnetic and can switch from the left side to the right side if needed. Very well build, but is very heavy - which means its well made. Not the easiest thing to move, but once its set up you don't need it to.

The ice is great but I’m actually switching to a different machine. This one can be very loud and it’s only been a month and I already have to try and fix “add water” alert when it is fuml

The ice maker works great and fast. We do have to check at least 2 times per day to make sure there is still water in the pitcher part.
Very easy to assemble and does not take up a lot of space.

Have a Frigidgaire nugget ice maker and this one is so much quieter than the Frigidaire. That is worth the increase in price there since I use this at work. Makes ice quickly, and make a full batch in an hour or so. So far this is a much better machine. The Frigidaire also leaked. This one does not leak.

I got this ice maker as a gift for Christmas and it has been a great product so far. It has incredible ice recovery speeds and only took 5 minutes for it to start spitting out ice. I would highly recommend this product there isn’t another machine quite like this one.

This ice machine is incredible. I love the side tank which allows you to put water in without having to take the ice basket out. We love using it a little too much, as I am constantly filling it back up. I highly recommend this machine.
