I was spending too much time runnings downstairs just for ice. This little machine is perfect. I use bottled water, fill to the line, press the button and in ~20 minutes my ice cup is full. The noise is more than a reasonably quiet while making ice. Very clean and easy. I don’t use much at once, but the basket holds extra ice for extra uses. Well made with handy accessories.

Yes it has a sound I can hear from the other side of the house only when it turns over the ice /not a it deal at all. It turns on automatically when it runs out of ice.It Also turns off automatically when it’s filled up. As soon as u take ice out it turn on again. It’s automatic. Kind of amazing . The nice thing is the option for smaller ice cubes. Having this is helping me drink more water. My ice maker in th refrigerator was good but when u push it the ice sometimes comes out so fast flying onto the floor. The cost to replace the ice maker is ridiculous might as well buy a new refrigerator. This works fantastic . It’s not a huge amount of ice for a party but it is actually a good idea because it makes fresh ice for your quests . Not taking it out of a cooler where everyone is touching the ice. Sanitary comes with a scoop. Worth the money.Great for the summer.

So far this little ice maker has worked great, just a little noisy when it is cycling the water through. Pushes ice out quick. It's fairly easy to clean and drain! It's the perfect size for my counter top, and it's a cute color!

This thing is amazing! It is just as described. I looked at so many reviews of this and other ones. The common complaint was the ice freezes into one big hunk. It started that way for me. It holds way more water than ice it makes off of it. You need to empty the ice out of it every few cycles. keep in mind this is NOT a freezer really. Makes a ton of ice and quickly. Altho it does produce cold air as a by product of the ice making, it doesnt make it to keep the ice frozen. The ice does get dumped with "water" on the outside of the ice from the way it is made. I found the work around of the big block of ice was to first put the bin full of ice in a bowl and once fully "dry/frozen" put it in you big ice bin breaking apart anything that froze together. I use alot of ice and made dang near a weeks worth in a day. Also it is pretty quiet just a hum like a desk top computer fan running.

The ice maker on my fridge died and was too expensive to fix so I ordered this. Easy to use easy to fill and makes ice quickly.

It’s worked like a charm, I can’t keep up with the amount of ice it makes, it’s small and much cheaper than what I had been looking at, I was worried because it was cheaper it may only work for a short period of time but it’s been 4 months the thing still works and you can change the size of ice easily, it’s a cute color and small so it fits perfectly in my tiny kitchen

I love this icemaker. It is kind of loud when it’s making ice, but it definitely serves his purpose. Its very easy to clean and makes cubes fairly quickly.

I was surprised at how quickly this little machine can fill up a bag with ice! I was tired of buying ice and jamming the bag into my freezer; now I have control over my ice supply. I like the neat little "bullets" this produces on the large setting. I expect the small would be too small. The first run or two after plugging it in, the ice is a bit soft and watery, but the pieces become firmer and more substantial the longer it runs. Note that the ice tastes strongly of plastic at first. I ran it through two self-cleaning cycles* with a vinegar and water solution, then ran another self cleaning cycle with plain water to rinse it out, using the plug in the bottom to drain the reservoir each time. After that, the plastic taste was gone and the ice was perfect! *To run a self-cleaning cycle, hold down the power button until the small-large lights start to blink (several seconds). The cycle takes a little while. I didn't time it, but probably 10-20 minutes. I'm sharing this info because I found most of it via some web searching. Also, if the bracket for your scoop comes wedged behind the metal ice-making prong thingies, don't despair. Just turn it on and off a couple times and the mechanism should "sweep" it out to where you can get it.
