great but noisy

Like the idea and larger capacity. But the cubes don’t break apart and come out in sheets. They were clear at first but now cloudy. They don’t melt as fast as the round ones which is really nice. But hate the sheets of ice and that they stack and freeze together

Used this to fill bags of ice to store in my chest freezer and while camping to have extra ice for the cooler and for drinks. Works great for both. It is best to break the cubes apart after two or three cycles or the sheets start to freeze together. It holds a lot of water so it doesn't need to be refilled too often and the bin holds a lot of ice. I'm very happy I purchased this one.

We LOVED this ice maker! We used it nearly every day for about eight hours a day and it finally stopped working a little over a year after we got it. For what we paid, we're happy with how long it lasted and how much money it saved us over buying bagged ice. The reason I didn't give it five stars is because it's fairly difficult to clean. It would get mineral deposits (normal, even when using distilled/filtered water) that were really hard to remove and it's quite heavy, so deep cleanings could take two people up to two hours. That said, this appliance was a work horse and sometimes we had to turn it off because it was making too much ice! Since it died, we just ordered a replacement and are eagerly awaiting its arrival this week!

Very glad I bought this, it sure beats filling ice trays every day, or running out of ice altogether. Just add water to the reservoir, turn it on, and you'll have a batch about every 20 minutes. It's pretty quiet and makes small clear cubes. The machine makes ice, but does not keep ice; you have to transfer it to a container in your freezer or it will eventually melt. So far very happy with it.

i ordered "staiñĺèss steel" colori got was 1/3 stainless steel and 2/3 pale blue!! Ɓlùe is my favorite color ..but almòst everything in my ķìtcen is either red, blàck or white!! I think this one was more expensive! The instruction booklet was NOT written by an English-speaking person. Makingit difficult to understand. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS FRIGDAIRE 40 %23 ICEMAKER.

Beats ANY fridge ice maker! We use filtered water from our kitchen faucet Waterdrop brand filter and this machine makes the best tasting, clear ice cubes - and i mean CUBES - outside of the best restaurants. Clear ice lasts longer, tastes so much better and looks fantastic! Don't bother with the machines that make the white bullet-shaped ice that stinks and melts when you look at it. They may be cheaper but if you really want 40 lbs of perfect ice every day, shut your fridge ice maker off and get this machine! Fantastic!! Never buy ice again, and get the BEST!

I bought this ice machine as a Christmas gift so I cannot report on its performance. I selected this particular ice maker because it claims to make clear square ice cubes that last longer than the cloudy pellet ice made by other makers. I hope the machine itself is a bit smaller than the box. It is also quite heavy. I feel I sacrificed the sleek look of a counter machine for performance. Lets hope so because who wants ice that melts quickly, right?

I am truly an ice snob and have been looking for an ice maker that makes restaurant quality ice which won't cost me an arm and a leg. Have had this Ice Maker for about a month now and I must say that I love it. Now it does make clear ice but that greatly depends on your water if you use tap water the ice won't be as clear as if you used bottled water. It does make alot of ice and the only issue is that you have to break it up when it falls which is not a big deal either. The size is not bad either about the size of an Airfryer, so you can put it on your counter. When cleaning it when your done the smaller your hands the better cause it is a little tight in there. Overall I really do love this ice maker and would highly recommend it if you are one of those people like me who hate freezer ice and want somthing better then you cant go wrong with this bad boy.

This ice maker is one of the best! You will want to use water with a low TDS (Total Desolved Solids) preferably 000 to have clear ice. Tap water needs to be filtered by a Zero Water filter pitcher or use distilled water. Check your water with a TDS meter which you can get with a Zero Water filter. Clear ice is easy to break up after the sheet drops into the basket. Just tap the top side of the sheet with the handle of a bread knife and they break easy. The TDS of my strait tap water is to high where I live to achieve clear ice with out filtering but not all states TDS are the same. I do recommend draining the ice maker if the TDS of the recycled water under the ice basket gets high. Ice freezing pushes impurities out of the water which build up in the recycling water.
