Product review (5 stars): I wish I bought this sooner, I love it!
Love it! We have used this ice maker daily since we've purchased it (literally non stop 9 months now) and it's still going strong. I'm actually delightfully surprised it hasn't died yet. We go through a ton of ice daily and it's working great. It doesn't take long to churn out a basket full of ice (about a batch every 7-8 mins). The first few batches of ice (if you fill the reservoir with cold tap water) will be little, wimpy ice cubes until the water chills to a colder temperature, but if you use already chilled water (filtered water from your fridge for example) you'll have bigger ice cubes right off the bat. I typically dump the first few batches of ice back into the water reservoir to cool down the water there if I'm not already using chilled water to begin with. We keep ours right by our kitchen sink so it's easier to clean.

There's a plug on the bottom on the front of the machine to drain the reservoir and daily cleaning is simply wiping it down inside and out with a sponge and dish soap. About once a week, we run a few cycles of vinegar/lemon juice/water mix to make sure it is thoroughly clean internally. Just rinse after this, run a few batches of plain water, toss the ice, replace with more fresh water and you're all set!
