AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'd say it's a peice of garbage but that would insult garbage. Didn't last 3 months, started leaking from the bottom. Cleaned it regularly using the clean cycle. Only used distilled water. Broke anyway. Took it back to BestBuy and they didn't even look at it and just gave me a refund with store credit. Just go to Amazon and save some money if you want one.

Makes Ice Rocks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall ok, not ground breaking and you get what you pay for. Ice scoop is too long for the tray. As others pointed out you will get water everywhere when you try to refill it. I think if they did not have the openings on the sides you could manage it a little better. The touch button is a poorly adhered sticker that was half off when opening it. And the biggest let down is how hard the ice is. I have had 'soft' ice nuggets...and these are rocks. Should last a little longer in the drink but not great to chew on.

Loud!
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loud! Like really loud. Much louder than I expected, makes okay ice. Small pebbles rather than cubes or chips and they melt really quickly.

Don't Buy this Dog
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ice maker is pretty noisy. Ice nuggets are smaller than the nuggets you would find in a fountain drink at a fast food place. We purchased in December 23 and this machine died at the end of March; barely 3 months after purchased. I did not purchase the extended warranty and it is no longer returnable. Don't buy this dog.

Piece of Junk x2
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned the 1st one due to a catastrophic failure of internal components. It spit out chunks of plastic into the ice bin. The second one I received made the same noises the other one did and started to vibrate my entire coffee station in my home office. I would stay away from this particular device. I went with a GE Opal 2.0 instead and it is so much nicer.
