    Quickly makes “the good ice”. We all love it! Our freezer ice maker may never be used again.

    I like it other than sometimes it gets clogged up and I have cleaned it just like it says and still has buildup inside , called customer service and they suggested I clean it again and wait 48 hours , done that and still not working properly, maybe I just got a bad one

    The only reason for less than5 stars is the noise level. Otherwise, fantastic ice without opening the freezer.

    Quick production and style of ice are the best features of this ice machine. This thing rattles loudly (out of the box) and always seems to be dripping. It could also use better insulation. It seems to make ice (or not) whenever it feels like it. For me, this would be a great product for $50 to $100, but it’s not worth $500+.

    It does what it says…I wish it would keep ice cold but doesn’t. The ice will melt and keep the ice reservoir full…kind of a back up system or way for machine to recycle the water to keep making ice…. so I scoop top 2 layers of ice only that seems dryer…. Put in zip lox bags and store in freezer…then I don’t use it until I need to make more.

    Sonic has some of the best Ice, but this Ice machine, will definitely give it some good competition! I love my ice in my Iced tea and juice! I’m so glad that I invested in this product!

    We love this ice. I was skeptical at first on how often I'd have to fill the water but it lasts even when we don't use as much ice. It works great!

    This is my second one. Moved the older one upstairs to gameroom and put the new 2.0 model in my utility room. Very quiet and makes ice fast. Worth the price to me!
