Didn’t like the size or wetness of the ice.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It made ice, but the difference between the large & small was not noticeable. The ice was always wet, so when I dumped it in my freezer bin it clumped together & we had to use a fork to separate it. I returned this item. It wasn’t worth the trouble. I’m back to using ice trays.

Worked For A Couple Of Days
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this ice machine because my family loves having fresh ice and it fit perfectly in my kitchen. It worked great for a couple of days and then suddenly stopped making ice. I followed all directions, made sure my home was always nice and cool even changed the location of the ice maker and it just never worked properly.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot worth it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked fantastic… for 1 year. I had no issues for the first year then randomly 1 day the plastic that’s hold the water up to make the ice cubes snapped. Not sure why, there was no ice in it at the time but it just broke.

||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.works well, does the trick. Nothing special, but gets the job done efficiently
I would recommend this to a friendGreat at making ice, impossible to clean
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Makes tons of ice very quickly. But the inside where the ice is made, is impossible to access for cleaning. And it does get very nasty and moldy in there, particularly in the tray underneath the metal parts which freeze to make the ice. It's super frustrating. I would not recommend this model because it's impossible to keep it clean.

Slow Ice Machine
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is pretty slow.. and the ice is really wet. I'm kind of disappointed..
No, I would not recommend this to a friendTakes too long
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Takes like 2 hours to make a couple of cubes. Youd have better luck just throwing water in the fridge.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot Worth it
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been wanting an ice machine for a few years so I finally bought this one. I couldn’t get a full tray of ice because the ice would melt, so it was a big circle all day. The machine didn’t keep ice cold, only made the ice. So u have to put ice in freezer but then the ice would freeze together in the freezer and then u have a big chunk of ice. Over all not worth it. I returned it and just bought a bag of ice.

Descent but too noisy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works as advertise but is quiet noisy had to take down to basement to be able to use it.
I would recommend this to a friendIce machine
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It starts out making tons of ice cubes and after a couple months it takes almost an hour for the first batch of ice cubes. We clean it all the time and it'll help speed up the process for about a week and then back to an hour to make a batch. When I say batch I mean one cycle of ice cubes which is 8 ice cubes. Look for another one with better reviews. Also make sure you buy the warranty on it. It's been 2 years and 2 months and now it doesn't work at all. I strongly suggest you DONT BUY THIS ITEM!!!

- Pros mentioned:Ice making speed
The little ice maker that died quickly
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Liked it at first...turns out ice quickly. Pump died in two months so that was disappointing. The ice falling into the storage bucket can be loud and annoying since it is running constantly

Cool machine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It makes a lot of noise but it works great if you can ignore that
I would recommend this to a friendDisappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very disappointed, Poorly designed & noisy. Requires constant attention. Ice reservoir fills up 20% - 30% then shuts off because ice piles up & machine thinks its full, push ice out of the way, will run some more till blocked again. Makes loud squeaking noise
