Product review (4 stars): Almost perfect
Its been working for several months,  maybe even a year. No major complaints. The only thing is that the sensor that supposedly determines when the machine should stop making ice doesn't work. I had the machine replaced under warranty and it does the same -  sometimes it'll stop making ice when the bucket is half full, sometimes it will stop when I made so much ice that the shovel is stuck because it can't push anymore ice. But it works, I have ice.

It's not loud, but definitely you'll notice it. It has that humming so old school fridge like. And when the ice cubes drop from the thingies that make it,  they make noise when they hit the plastic. Not terrible, but I turn it off to watch TV at night and leave it off when I go to bed.
