    Sadly it stopped working a little after a year and the warranty was over. It was good while it lasted but it stopped making ice and it was over heating.

    We loved this ice maker until it stopped working. The lever that turned the ice came loose on one side about a week ago. It was annoying but it still made ice. Now it says add water although the machine is full. It no linger makes ice. We have had the ice maker almost seven months. I have been pleased with most Insignia products we have purchased, but not this ice maker.

    Bought this because my fridge ice maker broke. But I takes way too long to make ice like over 5 min for very little ice. Would need like 3 load for one cup full.
