Product review (3 stars): Okay after it "warms up"
I was really excited to get this ice maker to put in my camper.  I  decided to try it out at home to see how it worked.  At first I was pretty disappointed, the first couple batches of ice were so thin and would melt as soon as they contacted warm liquid.  I decided to just let the machine keep running and by about the third or fourth batch the ice cubes were a reasonable size.  I guess it just has to warm up (or I should say cool down) before it produces substantial ice.  I turned it on the second day to see if it did the same thing on the first couple of batches, and it did.
On the bright side, it does make a batch of 9 cubes in about 6 minutes; however, don't think you can start the machine six minutes before you want ice and you'll have some because the first two batches, when the machine has been turned off for a long period, are useless.
