    I Absolutely Love this ice maker. I’ve one before I won’t name the brand but this is so much better. You can have 24 ice. I will making another purchase for this item to gift it to my Sister she has an ice maker on her refrigerator but it’s not enough because of our family and everyone likes ice so I took my ice maker to house and almost didn’t get it back. So I’m sure you will be selling many more.

    After a month or so of usage, I can definitely recommend this. I used to do the ice trays in the freezer and after 20 plus years of utilizing those I didn't think having an ice maker machine at home was a possibility without expending hundreds of dollars. I drink an Iced Coffee every night for work, so this is amazing it gets used pretty much every day.

    I bought this ice maker because the refrigerator in the apartment I live in doesn't have one. We obviously can't get a new fridge, so I was looking at a way to get some convenient ice. From there, I had this ice maker for <1 year and ended up returning it. During that time it worked well enough and made ice consistently. I put it on a smart outlet and the electricity cost for us came out to about $10/mo for 2 people with it running continuously which isn't bad. Note that when I say "continuously" I mean it's plugged in and on, but it will pause and not make ice when it becomes full. So why did I return it? During cleaning I kept noticing plastic flakes in the water reservoir. I thought it was mold, then took a Q tip to the area on the refrigerant tubes to swab it away and found it was some black material behind the chrome plating, and some chrome plating came off as well. Obviously having this in something you're consuming isn't an option, so it was a "whelp time to take it back" moment. It also sucks to clean. I'm not sure the intent of the design but there are so many nooks and crannies in the upper portion. If you could remove the "lid" where the electrical controls are it wouldn't be bad, but you can't. You've seen it in some other pictures uploaded by customers if you've taken a look. There are also areas that more or less are inaccessible, the tray that moves to fill with water has no real way to access behind it to clean. A cleaning cycle would also be a welcome addition, to get it to flow through the internal tubing and fill the tray with water to clean the refrigerant probes that come from the tubing you have to run it as if it's making ice. Would be nice if it had some sort of cycle to just run the pump without the compressor to chill the tubing, but it doesn't. Why 2 stars instead of one? It did function correctly for a while, and despite the flaws for the price did fulfill its role. So, here are my recomendations; 1. If you are intending to use this occasionally (parties, special events, etc...), drain, and clean it after it may fit that role fine. I would question if this is worth it instead of buying ice at the store; but thankfully it's your money and not mine. 2. If you are intending to use this continuously in lieu of an ice maker built into a refrigerator I would advise against it. It's inconvenient to clean, and ultimately I had the same case and the chrome plating didn't last. If for some reason you do want to get it anyway, I would at least advise you to buy the protection plan. All that being said returning this in store (with the protection plan) was very painless, so glass half full?

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Use this regularly to refill ice basket as the ice maker in the frig is shot. Portable enough to bring to other locations; camping, cabin, etc. No issues so far, wondering how long it will last but please so far. Takes about five minutes per batch, which amounts to enough ice for a good sized drink.

    My fridge icemachine stopped working so I got this Portable icemaker. My family love this machine because it makes ice fast and the smaller cubes are easier on the teeth. This portable icemaker requires no tubing, just pour water until it meets the water line.
