purchased to make ice for a small family as we decided on which new refrigerator to go with as the ice maker went out on our current refrigerator  using it for several weeks and can say it does make ice fast so fast you need to keep an eye on it and get it in the freezer before it starts to overflow in the basket and perhaps melts a bit  the ice from tap water is slightly cloudy as there is no filter on this unit for clear ice use bottled or purified water  ice is a dome shape with a flat bottom and a hole in the center  may melt a bit faster than the cubes that were produced by the ice maker in the refrigerator but it makes up for this in how fast it works  how to really clean this at the point we stop using it is not clear will have to google thatthe issue is the bottom plug that drains the water  it has a silicontype stopper on top of a plastic piece that seemed to be at first well attached to it  now after draining it many times to keep the water fresh or dry out overnight the silicon has come off of the plastic and is a pain to remove and place back in this is unfortunate that it was not designed as one piece so that it would not have come apartfor a dorm room this would be great as ice could be made for one person as needed and the unit shut offfor a small family as a tide over it has been ok and maybe even better than ok as we were able to make a good decision on a new refrigerator freezer with an ice maker and not be rushed because we had this handy deviceit has its limits but again for the price it was worth it i do not see this being a longterm workhorse ice maker based on the issues with the very basic plug at the bottom and the melting of ice that builds up in a basket and is an ice block sort of that is to be broken up before use
