Product review (5 stars): So far...So good!
These ice makers are the cat's meow! I only run it a couple of days a week and it makes enough ice to keep my family going (we use a lot of ice in the summer) for several days. I keep a couple of shoe box sized containers in the freezer and we're never out of ice. I have an ice maker in our freezer but I've never used it...they're to unreliable and it makes unfiltered ice and that's the main reason I use these, so I can have filtered ice with my drinks.

This makes much better ice than the Magic Chef I had purchased earlier. The Magic Chef conked in about a month, if this one last's a year or two I will be very happy...I purchased the warranty as well. From what I've read it doesn't matter how much you pay for these things they all seem to conk out rather quickly. This unit appears to be identical to the Magic Chef but it  makes bigger ice cubes...time will tell how good it is, at least I'm covered for a couple years with the buyer protection plan.
