My son was notorious for not refilling the ice cube trays that we have in the freezer.  This countertop unit is compact easy to use. Makes two sizes of ice cubes and is actually kind of amazing. It can get a lot of ice cubes out of one bottle of water just to give you a measurement and it starts making ice cubes in about 5-7 minutes.  It’s also self cleaning and has an easy way of emptying it from the bottom.  Yes the ice does come out a little “wet”, but that isn’t an issue for us. As long as you shake the bin they fall into to drain out excess water it’s not a problem.  I would definitely purchase this again. ￼
