Product review (1 stars): 1st one lasted less than 6 months.  Second one makes horrible noise.  Frustrating.
I bought this ice maker for my 95 yr old father-in-law and it made a horrible noise as soon as we received it.  It was the second one we had.  The first one just stopped working in less than 6 months.  We took it back to Walmart and they would not take it back because it was more than 3 months even though it had a 1 year warranty.  We actually tried to get it replaced from the company that actually made it but it was a huge hassle so we ended up just buying a new one.  Very frustrating.  The instructions says always keep it up right but amazon shipped it on it's side.  That may have caused the problem.  When it works it is nice ice maker.  I am going to see what it takes to send it back to Amazaon.
