Product review (4 stars): and so far everything is fine. I keep the ice maker on the "large" ...
So I have had this about a week, and so far everything is fine.  I keep the ice maker on the "large" setting which makes what I would call a medium chunk of ice.  A bullet shape maybe a little more than an inch long and a little less than an inch in diameter.

The ice comes out pretty quickly, especially if you leave the machine on.  As it cycles water through the machine, the water in the reserve tank gets colder and colder and takes less time to make ice.  So - once up and running it makes ice faster than I need for someone that drinks ice water all day long.

It is pretty loud.  It has a small compressor and a fan, and both are pretty loud.  I use it in my office, and not a lot of noise escapes the door, but I need to turn it off if someone comes in to chat.  It would be impossible to use in a cubicle.

The instructions recommend using either lemon juice or vinegar to clean the machine for several cycles.  I recommend vinegar unless you want to clean a lot of pulp out of the machine.  Maybe if you can strain the pulp it would be better.  That said - the hint of lemon for a few cycles after cleaning is probably more pleasing than a hint of vinegar.

Now - many cycles in the ice tastes like ice should - which is no taste at all.  At no time did it have a chemical taste - but I did throw out the first several cycles during cleaning.

I use filtered tap water from the water dispenser in the office, and the ice is fairly clear and tasteless.
