Product review (3 stars): Makes enough ice but it's a bit noisy.
The Della Countertop Ice Machine makes plenty of ice as advertised, but the cubes are wet and if put in a freezer the ice will freeze harder and stick together. My plans to make ice prior to company arrival and store in a freezer didn't work out very well. Perhaps storing in a cooler may be a better option, but I haven't tried that yet. The machine is somewhat noisy and beeps whenever ice is full or it wants more water. I have mine in a separate pantry from our kitchen and great room so the noise isn't too bothersome. You wouldn't want this machine operating near bedrooms. For the most part, it does the job and supplements the ice maker in our refrigerator which we often out run when we entertain or have family members staying with us for several days.
