Product review (2 stars): I want my money back!
Definitely not built to last. Considering this has an evaporative cooler like a refrigerator or air-conditioner, which are permanently sealed from the atmosphere with no possibility of leakage or contamination, this thing should last a very long time. However, the manufacturer seems to have used so many other cheep throw-a-way components (such as for the control mechanism) that this unit is likely to be taking up space in the land fill way ahead of it's time. Mine has not been shutting off when then ice basket is full since it was new, and more recently it only produced tiny little beads instead of ice cubes, hence useless.

Hello Global Corporations - if you want to do the so called "sustainability" thing, built it to last!
