Product review (4 stars): Nice ice maker for the money.
It has been operational for about a week.  The unit was received in good condition and was well packaged.

We dumped out the first two batches of ice before we started using it for drinks.  The ice cubes are fairly thin and I would prefer that they be 2X wider, however this is personal preference only.  Since the unit is on the 2nd floor, I tossed out the plastic water line that feeds it and installed a good stainless steel braided line.

To give you an idea of capacity, 12 pounds isn't a whole lot.  6 people using large red solo cups can go through that ice in a couple hours.  For the price, I would say that this is a good value and the unit does not require the installation of a drain line.

I am sorry to say that I do not have enough experience with this product to let you know what the production time is to produce a full tray of ice.
