Product review (5 stars): Great Ice Machine!
I got this Ice Maker as a gift for my boyfriend. I was hoping the cubes were going to be smaller, but they are still a good size. The "small" is just a thinner piece of ice compared the the "large" which are thicker pieces. We had a party and realized we weren't going to have enough ice for drinks, so I started making some. Within an hour, I had roughly a full gallon-sized bag of ice cube for drinks! Bonus: The machine is quiet too!
Some tips: as the ice is in the process of making, constantly remove the ice cubes as they drop in the catch-tray. This is not a storage vessel, but just a catch, and if you don't empty this often enough, the ice will begin to melt. I dumped the ice into a gallon size bag and placed in the freezer in between runs. Since the ice is still wet, it will stick together, but with a slight tap on the counter, it easily breaks apart!
This ice is also really great to chew on!!
I highly recommend this product. No, it's not as small as a traditional "rabbit poop" or "hospital ice", but it's not bad either. If you are looking specifically for either of those, this is not it. I still recommend it though!
