    Bought ice maker for my wife for her birthday. We loved it. Kinda a lot of work because ice melts fast but good size and made ice quickly. After 6 day it stopped working. Add water light flashes and will not pump. Will be boxing it up and returning it.

    Let it sit for 4 hour, filled it with water and started it up. It ran for barely 24 hours then stopped making ice. Would try to start but keep stopping. Like compressor failed or something. Returned and bought bigger one of another brand.

    This ice maker does not store ice, it starts melting as soon as it is made. The unit got very hot on the bottom and I was not sure it worked correctly
