Product review (5 stars): Great little ice maker!
I love this ice maker and it works great so far. After reading the reviews on it I went ahead and purchased the extended warranty and we'll see how that works out after the manufacturer's one year warranty runs out. Got the unit quick, took it home and set it up on my counter for about 12 to 14 hours before I turned it on. The manual said a couple of hours, but I wanted to give it ample time to settle. Made the first batch in about 8 minutes on the large setting. There's only 2 of us that use ice and it don't take long to generate enough to last use 2 or three days. It's moist ice and we put it in the freezer after the basket gets full so it tends to clump and freeze together. It breaks apart pretty easy so it's not a issue. Being as the ice is hollow it doesn't last as long as a regular ice cube, but it's working out fine for us. I do recommend it, but have only had it about a month so far.
