Bad pump and leak
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pump went out after 3 weeks. This also caused a leak in the drain tube which was secured by a small tube clamp that was also stripped. Glad it was under warranty.

Cheaper to buy bags of ice
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It broke after a year and 7 days. Seven days after manufacture's warranty expired. Having 25 lbs of ice on had is great, but the machine melts and refreezes the ice daily. Regardless if its full or not. A total wast of power. So you have to remember to turn it off. It should be automat like a refrigerator.

Quality machine that makes very small ice cubes
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would normally give this well built ice maker higher marks. It is attractive with quality construction. I have however given this ice maker a below average rating due to the very small ice cubes it makes. The cubes are small and melt very quickly. I would not buy this machine again.

Quieter than alternatives, VERY difficult to clean
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So the way this unit works requires some explanation. In the top of the unit, there is a cold plate that it passes water over. Eventually that water freezes, with the most pure water freezing earlier than impure water, so you end up with a mostly clear sheet of frozen ice. When that sheet reaches an appropriate weight, it slides off this cold plate onto a grid of heated wires. As it melts through the wire mesh, small square ice cubes fall into the bin. This is much quieter than semi-commercial units that typically spray water into vertical molds where a heat cycle then causes the large cubes to drop out into the bin. The downside to this unit is the whole water ramp, wire mesh, etc. are tucked away in an inaccessible part of the unit that is impossible to reach. You have to disassemble the entire unit to get at this area to clean it. And yes, you should clean it, because even with filtered or RO water, you'll eventually get both scale and mold. I discovered this on mine way down the line and it was a nightmare to clean. It's also impossible to keep clean unless you remove it and take the whole thing apart a few times per year.

DO NOT BUY
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have owned this ice maker for three years and have had significant, costly repairs annually. Water inlet valve and recirculation pump failed and the quote to repair is over $700. Repairman said these ice makers are the worst and recommended a service plan. My recommendation is to not buy it. Also have a Kitchenaid fridge with french doors, lower freezer that the ice maker always stops working because the design allows for the ice maker to turn into one big block of ice. Maybe just avoid Kitchenaid products.
