Stainless steel ice machine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very excellent ice machine. It makes ice like at restaurants. I use my ice machine everyday. I actually had bought two of them several months apart to give one of them to my niece. I gave her the stainless silver one and I got the black stainless steel.

You get EXACTLY what you pay for
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy to clean ice machine that produces reliable and satisfying ice. I was hoping the app allows for selecting between nugget ice and regular ice but as the title implies, only produces nugget ice.

Awesome ice maker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had an interest in this ice maker for sometime, and finally gave in and purchased one. It has been well worth it. I have only had it for about six (6) weeks, so I don’t have much of a review.

Great ice, terrible machine.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good while it works. The machine developed an unberable grinding and whining noise. I purchased a protection plan for it, but Best buy is refusing to service it even with 2 year protection plan because the protection plan is only good for 1 year... apparently.

Extra water tank
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ice is fantastic when the machine is finally working. I had to return my 1st one because the extra water tank wouldn't refill. I returned the ice machine and Best Buy gave me a different one without the tank. This one works better but I refill it which can be a pain. I was told they are moving away from the refill tank. Not sure if this is actually accurate info. We do love the ice ... my advice is to purchase the warranty and keep replacing as needed. It's kind of a hassle.

Great ice maker
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had the ice maker for a few weeks now and it is working like a charm. I have a First Build design that was used when I got it. It never quite worked right, and was kind of loud. This 2.0 model is great. Always have a good supply of the pellet ice. Totally satisfied

Crushed Ice
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this machine! My wife and kids are addicted to crushed ice and use it all the time. Would highly recommend using distilled water, prevents break downs. We have used ours constantly for the last 16 months without a hitch.

Mixed Bag
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When it works, it's the best ice at home you'll ever have. The problems started about 6 months in when it completely locked up. It was under manufacturer's warranty, but they replaced it with a refurb. It has been working, but that sucker gets REALLY hot. If/when it dies and is out of warranty, we'll replace with another one.
