    Does an excellent job making ice. Just be patient. Always use bottled water as the instructions say. I would never even think of using our disgusting city water in this thing. I saw some reviewer's complaints about mold build-up in the back of the unit on and behind the vertical metal bars that push the ice out. Never had a problem with mold yet (great to know about this however - thank you reviewers). Anyhow my wife has small fingers, so we put a small amount of dish soap on a damp cleaning rag and wipe down the fingers and behind them, then using a wet cloth to rinse and remove until there's no more soap. I guess if you constantly use this to make ice, the condensation buildup on these vertical bars and behind them could catch dirty air particles and cause mold. Also, I saw one person pose the question of how to prevent ice from clumping once you transfer to your freezer. The ice does start to immediately melt as the tray fills up and you will get a large clump of ice once it refreezes. Just agitate the ice either with your fingers or a wooden spoon every minute or so. This works for me.

    This is a very nice unit and works exactly as described. I purchased this because once again our built-in Kitchen Aid refrigerator had another ice maker failure. Faced with the cost of repairs, likely over $300, I decided to try a countertop ice maker. After checking out several brands and models at BB, I ended up with this one in red. There is only one problem with countertop ice makers sucvh as this one. The ice comes out wet, and when you transfer the ice to a freezer, it can freeze together in a huge clump, necessetating a hammer, ice pick, or some other tool to break up the clump. I thought, "Well I must not be the only one with this problem", so I did a bit of research. Most solutions said store the ice in paper bags, the paper will absorb the excess water and the ice won't freeze together. Well, yes and no. Yes the paper bags do absorb some of the water, but it does not prevent wet cubes from freezing to the bag. Yech, now you have paper stuck to your ice. Not cool. So, knowing the problem to be wet cubes, why not dry them off a bit before dumping them into the freezer bucket? Taking a clean white towel, I laid the towel on the counter, dumped the ice onto the towel, and blotted the ice mostly dry before dumping into the freezer ice bucket. Yup, it works and now the ice remains relatively free of water and no longer sticks together. Problem solved.

    Excellent machine. It runs quietly. It has 2 different size setting but I don’t notice a difference in the size of the ice when switched. It also works fast. You get ice within 6-8 minutes

    We love this ice maker!!!!!!!! It makes 9 large cubes every 7-8 minutes. I don't know how many small cubes it makes because we haven't used that size yet. We never lack for ice anymore especially during this hot California summer! Its pretty compact. We have it on our kitchen counter and enjoy the convenience of having ice readily available. One of our best buys ever! We would dedinitely recomment this product.

    Nice ice maker for the price

    This ice maker works well especially for the price! Don’t expect it to produce enough ice for a large group of people, since it takes around 45 minutes to 1 hour for it to fill the ice tray holder, but it works well for a small family. The auto stop feature is nice, simply fill with water and once the ice tray is filled it will shut off and if left on/unattended the melted ice will be recycled to produce new ice. I personally make the ice then store it in the freezer (in a larger container), then repeat, that way there is plenty of ice and I’m not rushing to make a bunch of ice all at one time.

    This is a great ice machine! Compact in size so it is countertop friendly and does not look bulky! The amount of ice it makes is perfect for our family of four! We use bottled drinking water to lessen the water stains from tap water. This was an inexpensive ice maker compared to most others we looked at and works perfectly for us!

    This ice maker is awesome, it cranks out ice every few minutes when powered on and it stays cold for quite some time. I let it run during the day and shut it off at night. The ice cubes are a nice shape and you can select either small or large ice. Its easy to use and I would recommend it to anyone that needs an ice solution.

    Had it for 3 month loved it would clean every week but I missed the most important part the piece that scoops the water at the very top while it’s freezing the ice . Mold lots of mold my hand are not baby size to fit in that area to clean and it can not be removed with out damaging the machine . I called and complain and was told to rise out with a dish soap but it doesn’t just disappear you need to wipe it off. Sadly you can not and u don’t even realize ur consuming the mold. Not worth making you and your family sick. Be safe and just pass
