Product review (1 stars): Mold! Can't be cleaned! Stay away!
Buy at your own risk. I cleaned my ice maker per Scotsman instructions and with the Scotsman cleaner and still could not clean the area on top of the ice molds where the water enters the pump reservoir. This is black mold and was in contact with my water and you will never see it unless you disassemble the unit as I did when making repairs to the hot gas valve. I'm glad I did because I would have never saw this disgusting mess.

I contacted Scotsman for help in preventing this should I decide to purchase a replacement. They were no help at all and only replied with the following:

"Mold can form for various reason and heres a few when its damp, warm & moist. Mold can be found almost in any environment. Often regular cleaning may not help and cleaning/sanitizing with mold fighting agent is required"

I used a reverse osmosis filtration system from day one and still could not prevent the mold. This is a terrible design. I highly recommend anyone to stay away from the Scotsman brand based on the customer service and lack of adequate cleaning/sanitizing procedures available.
