    Do not buy this product. Quit working 1 month after factory warranty went out. Best Buy and GE were no help. Just look at YouTube at all the how to fix videos for this machine.

    nope. no. just no. lasted 8 months before it bought the farm. massive internal failure. sadly this is still better than the other brands. wait for a *massive* sale and get it then. maintaining the thing is also a massive pain.

    Love the ice maker when it worked. This is the second one we purchased. Both barely made it a year before they quit working. Expensive piece of JUNK
