    I like the ice machine, but as others have mentioned it is impossible to clean and you do have to clean it even if you use bottled water to keep the contaminates down. For some reason they used screws that rust. I unfortunately purchased the four year warranty and my machine only lasted one year and eight months. So I have a new machine and had to purchase a new warranty. Yes it is loud, but it does make ice quickly. Enough ice to fill a large Yeti glass. It takes about four bottles of water to fill the machine. I had to purchase an ice machine because our new refrigerator made ice that tasted like plastic.

    I have absolutely loved my ice maker! I recently realized that there was mold on some spots. I cleaned it with a brush and water with dawn. I've been running it through repeated cycles. It now has a plastic taste to the cubes. It was fine initially but now it doesn't taste right. I've tried tap and bottled water. I'm going to try distilled. I'm just really disappointed that it seems like a disposable product if I can't clean it.

      Thanks for sharing your experience, EKing. It’s great to hear how much you’ve enjoyed the ice maker, but we totally understand your frustration with the recent issues. That plastic taste can be tough to get rid of—distilled water is a smart next step. You might also try running a cycle with a mix of water and white vinegar, then several rinse cycles to clear it out. We hope it gets back to making fresh-tasting ice soon!

    We love this little ice maker! With the summer heat, and all of us home all the time, we couldn’t keep up with our ice trays. We also dont have a water line for a fridge ice maker, so this machine was perfect! Easy set up, and it makes ice so quickly!

    I’m obsessed! We rent an apartment and it does not have an ice maker in the freezer. I don’t like purchasing bags of ice to take up room in our freezer and I definitely don’t have the patience to make my own. I have this on our countertop and use it weekly. I think it’s a great value considering the price of some other ice machines. The large cube size is what I use most of the time. I wish it came with a little ice storage to toss into the freezer. I’ve tried various ways to store the ice with Tupperware’s and the best is a ziplock bag. I shake the bag each time before putting it back into the freezer after adding ice so that the pieces don’t get stuck together creating a large clump. I do air it out so that it doesn’t get that weird nasty water smell and I also wipe it down before and after each use to ensure it is dry.

    Best counter ice maker

    The best in awhile. Make ice really quickly and it not hard to operates. Beats waiting for water to freeze in a regular ice tray. Great for parties also. Doesn't take up space and only makes noise with the ice drops into the bucket (sweet sound).

    This thing is fantastic! We do a lot of camping and having plenty of ice is always a concern. This little machine makes plenty of ice for drinks and to keep our small cooler supplied. Highly recommend using distilled water for best ice.

    Wanted countertop ice maker to have and then ice maker on fridge stopped. Purchased this out of need. Had this model for several weeks and pleased so far. Hubby and I use every couple days to fill ice tray up. I do like the large ice better than the small size. You do have to put in freezer or melts fairly quick. I normally let ice make 3x's and then empty. The low water feature works and if too much ice is in basket, ice maker halts making ice till emptied. Good purchase for what we need.

    Worked until it didn’t. These ice makers, regardless of brand or where you buy them, are pretty much the same. I’ve owned 3 of them and this one has lasted the longest. The first 2 I had lasted about a year, this one made it 18 months. Highly recommended the Geek Squad coverage, you’ll need it!!! Don’t spend more than $100.00 on one.

    Bought this to replace our Igloo brand version that didn’t last a year (sensor to tell machine ice is full broke with no luck in fixing it) as it was on sale for under $100. Bought the 4 year warranty to go with it as I’m afraid it might break again and this will ensure coverage for 4 years. Runs great so far! Definitely is a good idea to run a full basket of ice before using as it tastes like plastic otherwise. Great machine, I definitely recommend it. As title says there’s a lot of other machines with this exact same style but I chose to go with this one so I can replace it at Best Buy if needed.

    This has been one of the most important purchase in my household. We used to buy a bag of ice every 2 or 3 days and with this we fill up an ice bucket every 3 days it just saves so much money with how little water this uses and how much ice it can make. Plus the bullet ice on the small setting is about the same size as SONIC ice which the wife simply loves.

    Great little ice machine. Makes ice very quickly and is small enough to not take up a lot of counter space. I just plug it in when we have company and it makes ice within minutes.

    I love this ice maker. I've had several different kinds but this is by far the best one I've had. I'm on my fourth one. Two for gifts and one for each home. I have never had any problems with either of them. The ice is perfect for making smoothies as it is easy on the blades and we have never had a problem with it keeping up with the amount that we needed. I would highly recommend purchasing this one. We have enjoyed it from the day we turned it on. We have hard water in our area so I just buy distilled water to keep it from having a hard water buildup and it really keeps it clean that way.
