Product review (4 stars): Good ice maker, but not perfect
I "like" this ice maker. It keeps my freezer filled with ice, but I highly question the "poundage" calculation that the advertisement says it can make on a daily basis. This would be under the assumption that you run it 24 hours a day while emptying the ice bucket as it will stop producing ice when it is full. So don't get this ice machine based on the amount it says it can make. I use it moderately for a 4 person family and run it consistently when guests are here just to keep the freezer replenished. With that being said, The ice tastes deliciously pure because i use purified water. It does have 3 sizes to choose from of bullet shaped ice with a hole that goes to the top but not completely through. Because of that, the ice will melt faster in a drink than a solid piece of ice. Which I don't mind. The ice maker itself is very durable. It is tall and you must have room to let the fan breathe or it will get to hot and it will take longer to make the ice and can ruin the machine itself. Overall I give it a rating of 4 stars because it suits my needs but is not perfect.
