Product review (4 stars): Works as suppose to.
It makes ice , small bullets about 1" long. It is slow as all of them. So if you are planing on party cook the ice days before , store it in zip-lock and keep it in the freezer and turn it on just while you party as an extra supply. The ice comes out wet and stick a little , I use meat tenderizer to separate ice while holding zip-lock with one hand in the air. You will not crush as much ice as if you put the bag flat on the surface and beat it. Wait 24 hours before operating it , the gas in the ice maker should settle down. I gave it 4 stars because at first it couldn't start and the tech brochure was not helpful. However the seller shop247usa contacted me fast regarding this matter. I have it now for more then 2 week and it satisfies my needs.
