Doesn’t make ice
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just got this out of the box and sat up yesterday. We have not gotten one single piece of ice from this machine. It fills up with water and that’s exactly what it dumps back out pure water. Unfortunately because we waited our return date just passed and we are out the money for a broken piece of junk.

Icemaker Disaster
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product did not last 2 months, it started making funny noises and eventually stopped working. Thankfully, I purchased a protection plan but could not have it returned due to the Pandemic. This manufacturer is known for awesome product and I can only assume this is a one off issue or a default factory issue.

Does not keep the ice cubes frozen!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It looks nice, and it is a great idea...however, very disappointed in the product for the price. It doesn't keep the ice cubes frozen after making them. They melt right away. Also, within 3 days of having it, the "out of water" indicator quit working.

Poor Design
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No way to clean without first disassembling the entire thing, DO NOT BUY. These clowns should have made a way for you to be able to clean the internals. Unit has failed in less than a year. First month was great, then started making grinding noises, a few months later and ice production is back to zero.

Worked ok when it worked.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked for about a year then died, don’t expect it to last much longer, I think that’s when warranty went out too. Convenient for them but no chance I would buy another.

Something not right
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I encountered the exact same issue with 2 of these exact same models. They had an identical leaking issue as though the tubing was either not connected or broken inside. Maybe I could have fixed this but should not have had the issue out the box. Other models, I understand, work fine.

Ice melts inside the ice maker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ice melts inside the own ice maker; the only reason that I’d get this appliance is if it was gonna keep ice handy all day, Instead it melts inside the machine making a vicious cycle of water recycling.

Defective
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Out of the box this did not work. It kept telling me to add more water despite having it filled to the prescribed level. Powering it off, waiting, and powering it on again did not solve the problem. I returned it.

Don't waste your money.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was very disappointed when I used it for the first time. It makes ice very slow and it's not refrigerated so the ice is melting and sticking together.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lid had somethi g jiggling around inside when opening ans closing.

Not worth the money or counter space
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unit arrived with dent in back. No biggie as long as it worked. It worked but not at all close to expectations. Product said it produces 33 lb.s of ice in 24 hours, it did maybe 5 lb.s. Big and bulky unit. Ice cubes begin to melt as soon as they are dumped in holding bucket.

BAD CHOICE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.THIS WAS BOUGHT FOR THE 4TH OF JULY & CAME THE MACHINE CAME BROKE. AFTER 3 HOURS, THE MACHINE STILL HADN'T MADE ONE ICE CUBE YET. I EVEN CHANGED THE WATER AND ICE CUBE SIZE AND NOTHING HAPPENED.
