Product review (2 stars): It is giving off a smell like the motor is burning something
I just got this and am not impressed so far. I waited the 2 hours with it on a level surface before I tried it. It is giving off a smell like the motor is burning something. The smell is not that strong so I can't tell if it is normal or if there is something wrong. Also it is not quiet like others suggested. But maybe my idea of quiet is like a refrigerator hum...this is so loud I can hear it in the next room. I got it for my bar and it is just so loud I don't think I can keep it.....also, this part I guess I should have realized beforehand, but the ice cubes are not that cold....like they will melt fairly quickly in your drink. I like my ice super cold so that it doesn't water down my drink...I'll take the blame on not connecting the dots on that one....but the noise and smell are turning me off....
