The item arrived quickly in just over 24 hours on Amazon Prime, it was a bit tricky to lift out of the box but not because it was heavy but because it was so securely packed. The instructions were easy to follow and after letting the unit settle in place for an hour or so (so the compressor liquids levelled out) I turned it on and set the timer. Wow was I impressed! In no more than 15 minutes my first ice cubes were ready! This little unit has 3 cube sizes to choose from and can be programmed to start and stop at certain times throughout the day. I would not recommend running the unit at night because when the ice container is full it has a really loud alarm to let you know - a great feature but not when it goes off at 4am. The unit itself looks great on my kitchen counter and make the perfect hollow ice cubes for blending smoothies as well as for ice cold drinks. If you are considering buying a small ice maker for your apartment or house this is a good choice.
