    Great design and we'll thought out. This ice maker is much better than the more common ones. Makes plenty of ice nuggets in a fair amount of time. I would recommend this ice maker.

    Loved the icemaker while it lasted which was about 7 months... It's still under warranty but the warranty service is absolutely the worst in the industry. I finally got the exchange submitted in August and I'm STILL waiting on a replacement as of 11-03-21

    This was a Christmas gift to our parents from my sister and I. My dad would go to sonic to buy the “good ice”, so he was the happiest about the gift. So far so good! They say it’s working fine.

    Worth every penny. Ice is made super quick, it has a great texture and it’s fun to use in cocktails. I understand why opal ice is referred to as the good ice!

    Makes great sonic ice. It produces it fast and even though it can’t keep ice frozen. It will drain the melted ice and refreeze it. Wish it had a bigger water tank.
