Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was a bit concerned about buying this because the reviews were not too good. But it arrived on time and in good condition. As one reviewer pointed out, the user guide leaves a lot to be desired; I still can't figure out what one grey, flat rectangular part is supposed to do (but not using it doesn't seem to be a problem, so it can't be too important). There's enough info in it to get the process going, though.
For some reason, I expected it to start making ice faster, but it does take awhile (at least 30 minutes or more) for the unit to reach freezing temperature, so don't give up too soon. The ice it produces is clear and tastes "restaurant" great (I used bottled drinking water in the reservoir), and I am very finicky about the taste of water and ice. I'd read that with some other ice makers users had needed to run vinegar through the system to get rid of a funny taste at first, but that is definitely not required for this unit.
You'll need to transfer the ice cubes to a container that you keep in the freezer to keep them frozen. The ice making unit is just for making the ice, not for storing it.
This is a pricey solution to eliminate the monotony of filling ice trays day after day after day, but I'm thrilled to be able to do so.

For high-volume, high-quality ice cubes from a portable machine, turn to this convenient countertop appliance. The easy-to-use ice maker produces up to 33 pounds of ice cubes per day--great for keeping guest's refreshments chilled at a weekend work conference or at a large party with family and friends. Change the size of the ice cubes with the simple press of a button--choose from 1/4-inch wide to 1/3-inch wide. The appliance also comes equipped with a fluidization system that ensures perfectly transparent ice cubes. Its internal fluidization system--a process normally only found in restaurant ice machines--freezes ice cubes in thin, transparent layers instead of one large block, which ensures crystal-clear results, eliminating any output of less desirable cloudy cubes. In addition to its portable design, the handy machine offers quick start-up times as well. Simply add water to the reservoir and plug it in--the unit will produce up to 28 square ice cubes in the first 18 minutes. Thoughtfully designed, the water reservoir removes for easy refilling, and an audible signal indicates when the 2-1/5-pound-capacity ice bin has reached capacity and/or when the 1-2/3-quart water reservoir needs to be re-filled. A full ice tank or empty water tank will cause the machine's compressor to stop automatically for safety and peace of mind. Other highlights include rugged construction with all internal screws made of stainless steel, integrated side handles for secure transport, and an attractive silver-spray finish. The 195-watt countertop ice maker measures 13-1/2 by 11-3/4 by 14 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
