    Great for the price. I though more money meant better Ice maker, but none keep the ice cold in the unit so they all need to transferred to a freezer so its all about amount of ice produced in one batch, but if your transferring to freezer they what difference does it make. This unit works great, after a few batches the cubs get bigger. We have been running on and off for days and has worked perfectly.

    Our icemaker on our refrigerator stopped working. This was an inexpensive solution to getting ice. Works very well and produces all the ice we need.

    Ice maker has delivered on all promises. I recently bought it and have used it multiple times now to fill up a cooler. The bin is a bit small so you have stay on top of storing the ice. I have easily filled up a medium sized cooler with the ice made from it in just more than a days time. Clean up has been easy, and stores easily in the box it came in.

    Best Buy’s machine was a good value

    It didn’t exceed my expectations, but it makes serviceable ice fast. You have to store ice in a freezer or it melts quickly. It is not big clear cubes but it is cold and as pure as the water you use to make it with. Shipping, unpacking, fits use all went great. I believe that Best Buy’s price was as good or better than comparable items. It is a bit noisy but not necessarily bothersome.

    this unit works like a charm. Our current refrig. ice maker is intermittent, and unreliable. we purchased this unit and ran it through a cleaning cycle. Then we set the unit up and let it run. It made a nice amount of ice, the auto feature of filling and completing a cycle until the water reservoir emptied. This unit is not large enough to supply a large party, but will help to keep some ice available.

    Great small ice machine

    It makes about 10lbs of ice in a day. You have to be on top of it, b/c it shuts off after the small bin is full- about every hour. Then you have to empty the ice into your freezer for storage. If you leave it and the machine shuts off, the ice will melt back into the water reservoir. This is why 24hrs of ice is not realistic unless you don’t sleep and just watch the ice bin... otherwise it’s a good little machine for the price.

    Does it make ice? Yes, in fact its pretty fast at making the ice and it is relatively easy to set up. However, every single week the ice starts to taste really bad, forcing me to clean out the ice maker. Wouldn't be a problem except the ice maker is too big for my kitchen sink.... They should add a water filter or something so that I do not have to haul this thing into my bath tub every week just to clean it out. Otherwise it is great at making ice. I just have to taste the ice everytime I use it to make sure its not bad ice.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Fast and simple to use. It starts producing ice with 5 minutes. Its ice container is small. The container is about two large hands full of ice. But this is what this portable ice maker is advertise to be. I can make a small bag of ice ( the 5 pound bought in stores) in a couple of hours. It recycle ice water that's melting if not empty. The ice cubes are great.
