After owning this for 6 months, the ice maker has stopped functioning altogether and now we'll have to buy a new one.  This ice maker makes mini crescent ice in the same shape that traditional refrigerator ice machines make but thinner, which was disappointing but not that big of a deal.  What was super annoying and inconvenient was that there is no drain and often times if the door isn't shut perfectly, the ice would melt just enough to form into a great big block which you'd have to then pick away at or dump to start a fresh bin.  I bought this thinking it would be good because of the 5 star reviews and I want to set the record straight for anyone else thinking about buying it.  Do yourself a favor and buy better quality than this.
