Sonic Ice
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Epic ice maker. You should get about 3-4years out of it ( thats what we got on our first one). Great tasting ice that makes quickly and quietly.

Posted .We are so pleased to hear you are loving your nugget ice at home. This is definitely the Good Ice and we're glad it is working quietly and efficiently. The side tank option is the best! It is installed flush to the front of the ice maker so that it does not block the air flow vents on the Opal. Fill the Opal Ice Maker Dispenser's lower water reservoir, if desired. Water will flow from the Side Tank but will have a slow start as it needs time to fill up the water reservoir before the ice maker can begin.

The spousal unit approves :-)
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a gift to my soft sonic style ice worshiping wife. Over all we enjoy this unit. It's quieter than I expected even though I wish it was just a little bit quieter. Also I wish that the refill tank was top fill, but other than those things we love this ice maker.

Pretty good.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good product overall. Only gripe is it is pretty loud when making ice. But there are ways to avoid by only running at certain times and/or storing some of the ice in your freezer.

Game changer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this because our refrigerator ice machine went out and had been buying bags of ice. This is a game changer! We love this pellet ice and it works great. We haven’t had to buy anymore bags of ice since getting this and it is always replenishing the ice. You do have to fill the reservoir with water, but that is no big deal.

Very loud - 73 decibels
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the ice this makes, but it is very loud. I put a sound meter on the counter beside it and it measured at 73 dB. It is loud to the point that it makes having a conversation in the kitchen difficult.

Best Ice Ever!
