    It was working quite well for a while. Then the sensor to stop the pump when the water was too low broke so now it runs all the time. And it's running rougher and rougher.

    Yes, it makes ice, but I wanted to keep the cubes in my freezer for future use. Tired of refilling trays. However if you transfer the cubes to the freezer they freeze into one large clump. Not good. So, back to the trays.

    It doesn’t hold the ice after it makes it. You need to put the ice in the freezer afterwards. If it makes ice it should be able to keep the ice it makes without needing to put the ice in the freezer.

    Good item, we enjoyed having it “while it was working” but after 4-5 months the motor burned out. Luckily there is a warranty on it for a year but it’s just annoying that we had to go through this

    I bought this icemaker at the end of January and it stopped working today. It won’t freeze the ice no more. Of course it’s out of warranty and not returnable. It should have lasted more than a few months. A total waste of my money.

    Was doing great until 7 months here, this was my only source of ice because my freezer didn't have a nice machine and has now completely stopped working. I'm totally sad and I'm going to look to see if there's a warranty for this and if it will be replaced. If not I'm going to look into another brand. I've always backed insignia but I don't know anymore.

    Not sure what I was expecting but it just wasn't it for me. The ice tray didn't have enough time to fill up to even have a cup of ice before they all melted. I could have just had a bad one but I ended up returning

    Hot price on an ice maker that is PAINTED silver. Looks to be stainless BUT only in color. Returned as it appeared easily scratched potentially making it a countertop eyesore?

    Ice maker convieniently lasted just outside of the warranty period. Bought this maker in July of 2022, it broke september 2023. Best Buy support said they could not give me a replacement, and the warranty is no longer active as it is only a one year warranty. If you MUST buy this, buy some sort of an extended protection plan. Or just buy a better made model.
