Product review (5 stars): Great Ice maker
Despite it's weight (I will explain in a minute), I give this ice maker 5 stars for appearance, reliability, durability, quanitity of ice per batch, and size of the ice holding basket.  The first batch puts out smaller cubes, but the second or third batch will produce full size ice cubes.  The machine will continue to make ice cubes until the ice basket is full,  or all day long if you keep using ice cubes and refilling the water bin.

Quality of Ice:  Remember, this is ice-machine ice, not freezer ice.  If you have used ice at a hotel or motel, then you will recognize the clear, slightly wet ice cubes.  Freezer ice is white, dry and  several degrees below freezing.  If you want to turn these ice cubes into white, sub-zero (Celsius) freezer ice, but them in a plastic bag and stick them in the freezer.  At the end of the night, we put our extra ice in the freezer and save it for the next day, so we don't have to wait for the first batch of ice to come out.

Noise level.  the fan and condenser are quiet.  The only real noise is the falling ice cubes at the end of each batch.  If you are in a camping trailer or live in a small one-room studio apartment, you don't want to run this while taking a nap.  Except for the falling ice cubes, it's about as quiet as a regular desktop computer.  (and much quieter than a gaming computer)

Our ice maker lasted about 5 summers.  Admittedly, that would be only be 18-24 months of continuous use, but if you use this for summers or camping, I suspect you will also get about 5 years of use.

Maintenance:  Our house has no A/C so when not in use, the ice maker becomes room temperature (80 degrees or more) and the interior becomes warm and humid.  To keep the ice cubes fresh tasting and prevent eventual mold in the water basin, every week or two, I empty any remaining water in the sink and wipe down all interior parts with a paper towel.  When the ice maker starts up each batch, it runs water through the water tubes a minute before it starts to make ice, so this helps flush out the water  tubes.

CONS:  My only complaint about this ice maker is the weight.  It is heavy to carry to the sink and turn upside down to empty the water.  I suspect the manufacturer is aware of this concern and they put a drain at the bottom.  However, the drain is too slow and lugging the ice maker to the sink and pouring out the old water is much faster.
