Stopped working within 4 months I’m glad I bought the warranty but the geek squad is terribly inefficient

After a year and a half and 4 different machines. I can tell you the quality of the machine is horrible. It will not last. From squeeling all the time from the beginning of ownership to sensor and even wifi issues this thing has it all. Does make great ice but be sure to keep a good warrenty cause you will be let down. Swapped mine a week ago that just quit working all together and even upgraded to the newest model. Day 1 wifi wouldnt setup (only nice for scheduling). I overlooked that just to get making ice. 1 week later its quite working and has the dreaded "add water" issue. I'm done
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
