Product review (2 stars): Not worth the asking price LESS THEN ONE YEAR OF USE
We bought our machine from K-mark. We have had other portable ice machines in the past to compare this one to.  It was some what faster due to  size or the ice cubes. It is a lot nosier then our other maker. For the most part I was pleased with the machine for it was lighter the our old one and easy to move around and clean. I learned from my past ice maker to use distilled water for It helps by keeping it clean of hard water  chemicals forming as well bacteria.(learned that from my old machine.)  BUT IN less then one year it is no longer working.. The basket that holds the water  while the ice forms no longer rotates . Totally hung up.... The water pump is fine and no mold but with out that basket working there is NO ICE able to form. It is a very high price to pay for less the a year of use. So disappointed after taking the extra care of distilled water and following all the recommended directions.
