Product review (5 stars): Better than expected
I don't usually write reviews because what I will say will be a repeat of all the other reviews. That being said; I love this machine. We have had this machine for a three months and it has been running everyday. The biggest thing I will have to note for everyone is the ice is wet ice. I read previous reviews and the one comment that helped the most was, put the ice from the basket in a zip lock bag and put it in the freezer. The ice will freeze together making it difficult to break apart. Putting it in a bag every batch makes it easier to break up and put into a bucket for storage or use. The noise level is louder than a refrigerator, but it doesn't bother us at all.
