Product review (1 stars): The sound progressed to the point where there wasn't a second that the power was on and the room wasn't filled with the terrible sound. You are probably wondering why I continued ...
I received this ice maker as a gift. We were told to hold off on purchasing a $300 ice maker which we were intent on buying due to someone already purchasing this for us. The description is exactly what we were looking for. The issues stared pilling up a few weeks in.  It made about 15 rounds of ice here in there over a few weeks. It then began to screech as the pump struggled (I'm assuming the pump) to work efficiently. The manual states to clean the filter. The manual doesn't even label where it is in the diagram, nor does it say how to clean it.  The sound progressed to the point where there wasn't a second that the power was on and the room wasn't filled with the terrible sound.

You are probably wondering why I continued to run it when it was making the noise. I called customer service in hopes of returning the ice machine due to it possibly being a faulty device. They won't even deal with you if you don't have a receipt. No trouble shooting, nothing. They stated that I will either need to find the receipt (it was a gift from several months ago) or fix it myself. Naturally I called the grifter up and they did not have the receipt.

Now I'm left with a screeching ice maker that will probably burn out in a matter of days just trying to make some ice. Please do yourself a favor and don the buy this product. They only make one ice maker and customer service is not effective.
