Product review (1 stars): Lasted only 6 months
UPDATE:  Purchased unit on December 26, 2015.  Unit is now dead and will not cycle or make ice as of May 9, 2016.

Works as advertised and makes ice rather quickly.  9 small cubes per cycle (I do not use the medium and large cube options) at about 9-10 minutes per cycle.  Shuts off automatically when the ice tray is full. Has a timer for auto-on and auto-off but I do not use that feature.  Instructions were not as clear and concise as I would like, but I do not deduct a star for that.  Unit is very easy to operate and monitor, and I just use the manual shut off.  Because the ice compartment is insulated the ice will remain a long time (hours) after you shut it off.  When the ice melts it simply goes back into the water compartment and is used next time.  Unit is very quiet and does not take up a lot of space.
