the ice maker takes upwards of 15 mins to make ice, and it dont break down into cubes like in the photos. the ice comes out in sheets. But it's not bad, just not like the description says or the photos. oh, and when it falls into the basket, it's loud and startles us because we forget it on.

Seems to work well. It makes a lot of ice quickly and that is our %231 necessity for our household. The water capacity could be a bit larger. It seems to hold less than what is stated. Could be more stylish for the price. I purchased the 3 year warranty just in case. Overall, I would recommend.

I does make ice but requires a lot of attention. Ice is not clear. Ice is very wet, when placed in a colder freezer for later use it sticks together in one solid block. It is slow depending on room temperature the only way to get 40 %23 per 24 hours would be to start with water at just above 32 degrees, make sure you are standing by to empty Ice and refill water immediately when needed.

Little bit larger footprint than a bullet shaped icemaker but still fits very comfortably on my countertop the electronIcs controls are functional and easy to use. Makes great ice. Ice is a solid square ice cube no hole in the middle like with a bullet shaped ice cube, much longer to dissolve then with the bullet shaped cubes. Great color choices. Haven't found anything I dislike about this ice maker.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Makes ice quickly. Top water lid is cheap and flimsy and not designed to stay on. Ice cubes are on the small size. Very quiet. Somewhat heavy. Instructions are poorly written and surprised at the amount of spelling errors. Not expected from a name brand like this. Box was heavily damaged that it came in although the unit appears to be okay.

Works as advertised, but note that countertop units (all brands/models) are not a "set it and forget it" machine. If you want an ice maker that has on demand ice sitting in it ready for you 24/7 (i.e. equivalent of a freezer ice machine), these units are not a great option because they a) require constant attention (filling water, emptying ice bin) and b) are not cold/insulated enough in the bin to keep the ice from melting throughout the day. The unit does work perfectly though to fill up an existing freezer, or to supplement an existing automatic ice maker, or during parties/high demand periods whereby the ice will be used before it melts in the bin (note it takes hours to melt, so the ice remains perfectly usable as long as you either use it, or empty the bin in a reasonable time). The machine makes clear, square(ish) ice the size of a quarter (see pics). It does not make perfect, evenly sides squares, it makes parallelograms with a dimple on 1 side (dimple visible in pics). The timer(cube size) button does not change the cube dimensions, it simply determines how full or empty that dimple is when the ice ejects by shortening or lengthening how long the water runs over / fills in the grid. The machine is not noisy, but you can hear the fan in a quiet room. If a TV is on, you won't notice the machine at all (except when the ice ejects into the bin). Some reviews note a problem with the ice sticking and not ejecting into the bin. I've yet to encounter this issue. My guess is they did not level their unit. it is important to make sure the unit is level during use as the design uses gravity to fill the cubes AND to eject. If the unit is not level, the water will not fill the grid evenly, some cubes will be thicker than others, or worse, if the unit is tilted backwards, the angle won't be enough for the ice to fall out during thaw/eject cycle. Simply make sure you put it on a level surface and that the water is running over each column of cubes evenly and you won't have stuck ice. I prefer the -6 (fastest) setting as the ice is easy to break up and is more chewable, have had zero issues with the unit so far, and would recommend for persons who a) have no (or a broken) freezer ice maker, need to supplement an existing freezer unit, or have frequent need of on demand ice during parties/events.

The first ice maker came in with a big dent on the back of the unit and it would never freeze the water. I don't blame that on the product, the shipping packaging was not sufficient. The replacement ice maker works like a charm! We use it to supplement the refrigerator ice maker and it performs very well. The box says it will make ice in as little as eight minutes but usually it takes about twenty minutes for a tray to freeze. We make up a couple of ten pound bags in a day and stash them in the deep freeze for later. So far this ice maker has performed up to expectations and I would certainly buy it again. I highly recommend this item.

Works great! Instructions are vague when it comes to adding more water so you'll have to use it to learn it. If you have a quiet home it will startle you and your pets when the ice has formed and falls into the bucket. The unit is bulky, requires a lot of space so it doesn't work well under cabinets. Purchased because our $3,000 Samsung refrigerator icemaker keeps freezing up and jamming every few days so this thing is a God send for my Ice junkie husband

Works great. As others have noted, it does make large blocks that you have to break apart. You will want to learn how to properly clean the unit. Run some bleach through the unit once a year. And run some CLR through it a separate time. I always let my whole unit drain and air dry between every use to prevent mold. But otherwise great machine. Does what it is supposed to.

Received my new ice machine on June 30, 2025. It seemed great and worked great at first, but by july 20th, 2025 it simply quit. Had a light blinking on it that the manual thay came with it said was a ''bad solenoid''. I initiated a return to walmart and after seeing other reviews for this machine breaking soon after purchase, I elected to just get a refund. $200 is a high price for anything that's only going to work for less than 6 months, not to mention the inconvenience of a brand new item you just bought breaking.
