Product review (1 stars): Update 12/21/2012--Not So Great Machine
Received the machine today, in its original box set in a larger box with corner bumpers. No box damage at all. I wiped it out, washed the tray & scoop, filled it and within 15 minutes it dropped two makings with no noticeable smell. The cubes are not as large as hoped, but just fine as is. I don't think it is very noisy, but my ears are old! The color is like the cinnamon color of our counter mixer; both units compliment each other and sure brighten the kitchen.
With 2 day shipping from Prime and the great price, buy it, you will enjoy!

Update 12/21/2012: Well, as with some other reviews here, I am sorry to say the machine has died. It will still make ice; however, the gearing that moves the water tray has frozen and will not move. Sad that it is only several months out of warranty. I will call NewAir and see if they will make this right. If not, we will not buy any of their makers, but go with a more expensive one. We had hoped this little unit would last at least 4-5 years.
Maybe I will attempt to remove the casing and see if I can get the gearing apparatus to release.

UPDATE: 01/15/2013: I removed the back and top covers finding the drive motor had a rusted/frozen shaft. There was no grommet/o-ring sealing the shaft from moisture exposure. Therefore, nature took its course and moisture did its job. Sad reflection on the maker of these units that they could not better protect the motor and shaft. Guaranteed shaft freeze down the road. The next saddest thing is I called New Air and tried to order a replacement motor; I was told that they had to check if they could get one and would email me with info. After 24 hours and no reply, I searched and found the part on Magic Chef's parts order site and then verified the motor type with Magic Chef: [...]. Seems that many different ice makers are made by the same company and under many different brands.
The part w/shipping was $35.90.
We will no longer purchase from New Air; they may have good prices, but not having immediate access to parts? Sad...
