Great ice but........
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ice maker is awesome in many ways and many ways it's not. First off, the product is perfect in size and frozenness. Best ice hands down. But it's definitely not portable its very heavy so it stays where u put it. You're not going to be moving it much for sure. It's kind of hard to fill and keep up with. like if you want the amount of ice advertised you need to empty it 30 times it can't make a lot of ice but not unattended. Hefty price worth perfect ice ? for me no

My wife is THRILLED
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had it for about 30 days and it has worked great so far. My wife absolutely loves it. I would say that the capacity of the ice bin is a little bit on the small side, but my wife’s ice demands usually outpaces the ice maker built into our refrigerator (the reason I bought this one) - now she uses this one only and it hasn’t gone empty yet. So the output is greater than my built-in.

Cooler than an Eskimo’s hubcaps
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I nearly pooped my pants when my wife told me this thing was $600. Needless to say, I weaseled a new Apple Watch out of her for it. I am EXTREMELY pleased with this purchase. It makes ice JUST LIKE Sonic and Zaxby’s. Setting up and first cleaning took about 30 minutes. We had ice to test in about 10 minutes. It was entirely full when we woke up the next morning. Keeps ice for several hours and the ice that melts re-freezes and makes more ice. Would definitely recommend this to a friend if I could talk someone else into spending $600 to make ice.

Great addition to newly finished basement
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome counter top ice maker. I have not yet gone through a full cleaning cycle but overall after a month or two this item is still awesome. It makes ice quickly and relatively quietly. The ice lasts awhile in a cup. I was able to catch this on a bit of a sale and since we purchased for our basement windows w have had 2 or 3 family and friends go and get one. Not the cheapest option out there but looks good on my counter and fits our decor without sticking out.

Nugget icemaker
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my absolute favorite kitchen appliance. If you have soft water, water, recommend descaling at least every 4 to 6 months if not, and your water is hard, would recommend descaling at least every other month. The machine operates so much better.

Great Ice machine
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best purchase of the year. I will never go back to using ice on the refrigerator door. Easy to use and you can't beat the nugget size ice.

The Good Ice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ice maker is worth the cost as it makes the really good ice. If you like to chew on ice without ruining your teeth, get this. If you like a cold drink that doesn’t get too watered down, get this. But pay attention to the instructions as you have to totally drain it every 1-2 weeks. It’s heavy so it’s not the easiest procedure. Also, this will not fit under your cabinets. The listing says 16 inches tall but it’s 17 inches.

Such good ice..
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the right model. It makes a lot of really good ice very quickly. Just a two scoops is enough for a cup of water, but when it's full there's a dozen scoops easy. The side water tank attachment is a necessity, as it can be very difficult to fill the in-unit water tank, requiring removing the ice tank and an awkward angle for most pitchers.

Ansolutely Awesome
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife and kids eat ice. This machine makes more ice than they can eat, the first countertop ice maker to do so. To make it better, the ice is soft so it is safer for teeth! Far exceeds expectations in quiet performance, production, well worth the extra money when compared to other countertop ice makers.

Love/Hate Relationship
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me begin by saying, "I LOVE THE ICE!" However, I do not love the sounds this device makes. Sometimes it works great, but other times it squeals and hisses so loud that I have to turn it off. This is so disappointing, because I love everything else about the machine, but I can't stand to have it running because of the noise sometimes.
