Do not waste your money on this product had machine for 1 year and maintained it every two weeks. I started noticing about 4 months ago that the ice was a yellowish color with black specks.. use the descaler and only used distilled water in the ice maker. Today I was fed up I opened it up today and was so grossed out at the inside of the resivoir it was black with mold floating on top!! I let my family use this ice never again. Please look at the pictures as proof. For as much as I paid for this and I never leave reviews but felt the need too how many other families are eating ice like this??
