Product review (4 stars): Works well
The first time I ran it, it took awhile to make ice, about 25-30 minutes for the first cycle,  and over an hour to get half a tray. After the first time, it's about 10 minutes per cycle and about an hour to get almost a full tray. I haven't run it until it's full yet, haven't had time, but it works well, and it's relatively quiet.

My 4-star rating comes from the fact that when you transfer the ice to your freezer, there's still water in it and it's soft, so it clumps together once it freezes. An easy fix to break the ice apart, so only mildly annoying, but enough to take away 1-star.

I'd recommend keeping the extra little plug that comes with it and I'm also going to look into ordering more. I haven't lost it yet, but it seems like something that would be easy to lose.
