    17 months of use. The ice maker no longer works, it doesnt move to make ice. I do not recommend. While it worked… the ice was not making the proclaimed pounds of ice it says. But it served the purpose.

    Bought it as a birthday gift for my mom and first time opening it was covered in what smelled like gasoline and did not work, when tried to return it we where told it can’t be returned after 15 days. Absolutely ridiculous! Send us a broken product and won’t even take it back. Don’t ever buy this!

    Only gave a one star because 0 is not an option. Bought my first one and warranty. Of course it lasted just past the return date and had to use the warranty. When returned, got another one, different color. It lasted only a couple of weeks past return. Have to return this one also!
