    A little loud. It's in the kitchen, you can hear it from all over the house. But it did make a lot of ice.

    Great when it works. But breaks after about a year so make sure you get the warranty. The basket that holds the water that makes the ice cracks and stops moving. Seems to be made of low quality plastic. Replacing my second one and will be looking for a different brand.

    Great while it works, makes that softer, chewy ice. It only lasted for 17 months, then died. The unit will still (kind-of) make ice for one cycle if you unplug it, power it on, off, then on again. The last unit we had only lasted for a little over two years. I am guessing these things are just prone to breakage. Would not recommend.

    I have a piece of junk Samsung refrigerator which the ice maker has stayed frozen up on always. It was replaced several times and was never a long term fix so this is my only ice maker. It makes enough ice for my husband and myself and I really like it. It is rather hard to clean I think.

    Works fine in cold months if you are one person. I don't see this working for multiple people who want to fill more than one glass with ice. Also, now that it is warmer the ice is melted into tiny hail inside the machine, even the producing ice is now flattened like a mint.

    Survived 13 months of near constant use. Worked great until just this past week. A weird fluid started coming out of the side and it just stopped making ice. I tend to buy warranties on things with moving parts, and I got the four year on this one. Glad I did.
