Product review (3 stars): Ups and downs
Now I've had this unit for about six months.  First I'll say it make great ice if you use great water.  I use distilled. The cubes come out amazing. That said, it's far from perfect.  A few things are less than desirable about it.  1) it has become loud, too loud 2) it's a pain to clean.  there are two small filters that my large hands have a hard time getting to.  They must be cleaned on occasion or water doesn't flow right.  If you don't use pure water the dispersion tube gets fouled up and has to be taken out with difficulty and great care 3) it has a tendency to freeze over when it doesn't detect its full because a lever freezes or get blocked by other ice.  I Got use to the sound it makes and push the power button for five second to put it in reset thaw mode.  Then it's fine though.  We bought it for our RV.  It saves us using capacity in the freezer and about $3 a day on buying ice.  It makes more ice than we need, and we do use it constantly.  I may try a different" next time.
