While the ice is great, there is a significant amount of maintenance to keep your ice clean and enjoyable. The ice “bucket” drips condensation on your counter or tray every time you pull it out. Be aware of the size of this thing as in a small kitchen, it would take up a large amount of counter space. The side reservoir, can help you go almost a month on one refill. The app allows you to schedule times to make ice. And ice is coming out about 10 minutes after you start it. And the ice bin can be full in about 3 hours. That is 3 lbs of awesome ice. Setup can be awkward if you go by the instructions, so go find a YouTube video and it is easy. Enjoy your beverages with your favorite ice. You will be glad you got this.

THIS DEDICATED ICE MAKER IS NECESSARY FOR THE COMPLETE KITCHEN. IT COMPLETELY HANDLES ALL OF THE ICE CONSUMPTION NEEDS WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF A WATER HOOKUP WHEN PURCHASED WITH WATER RESERVOIR-ELIMINATES REFRIGERATOR ICE MAKERS WHICH NEVER WORK AS EXPECTED AND ADDS A CONVERSATION PIECE TO THE KITCHEN THAT HAS EVERYTHING.

I can't really say a whole lot because it's her feelings more than mine but I will say she is absolutely loving this thing she doesn't care about chilling sodas anymore she turns it on in the morning and it runs until the evening just so she has fresh eyes cops and cups worth but I can't say I'm glad she's getting her water at least haha but I'll seriousness this product is great it's a bit heavy but it's all a construction the additional reservoir really makes it easy to keep it going it is shiny so it matches most of the appliances we got for a wedding honestly great purchase.

Setting the ice maker was straight forward. Add tsp of bleach and required cups of water and let the system flush and repeat with just water to clear out any residue chemical. I find that if you are near the sink for the initial sanitizing it makes it easier to flush out the liquid. Now once sanitizing is complete, place the ice maker to the end state location. Fill the water reservoir (side of machine) with clean water. I use Reverse Osmosis (RO) water to produce clean tasting ice. I reckon this would cut down with any mineral buildup as well. The ice maker will begin to make ice. You will hear the hum, buzz that any fridge makes while it is cooling. All is normal and you will forget it once you get used to it. It has Wifi connectivity which is great to control on/off and check progress. I personally do not use it much. The ice is plenty quick for me. Next day I had a bin full of pellet ice. Great ice and any remaining melted ice will go back and be remade into ice. In summary: Pros— *Great ice and consistent pellet shapes *The bin is lit with white light that can be dimmed or turned off *Includes scoop and liquid tray *Looks great on the counter and does not take up too much space Cons— *Noisy if you are sensitive to humming and buzzing *When removing ice bucket to retrieve ice, drops of water will occur meaning you will need to clean the tray of spilled droplets of water *Do not overfill the water reservoir or machine will not pump water to make ice, received “add water” notification even though the reservoir is full *Machine is imported and quality can be of concern when warranty, very limited 1 year expires

I Love ❤️ my Ice Maker! My ONLY complaint would be that the ice melts after time. It doesn't stay cold enough to keep the container consistently full. Other then that. It's all good. It sure saves me on buying bags of ice from Sonic every week. Lol.

For anyone with a nice home bar, this is a nice capstone to your equipment. The setup for wireless is simple, and you're less than an hour from unpacking to getting ice in your bin. I can't imagine not having the side-mount water reservoir, so plan to make that part of your purchase. I wish the bin was a little more insulated to keep the ice from melting, but when you're using it for a party or other activity, melting won't be an issue.

The ice it makes is advertised. Soft enough to chew yet it won't melt fast. No complaints about the ice making capability. However the machine makes noises during the defrost. Within two weeks of owning the machine, the noise during defrost has gotten much worse. Going to return this machine.

Love this ice maker with the additional water tank. It is super easy to use and cleaning it is a cinch compared to trying to clean an in fridge option. The only thing that took a bit of time to get used to is the defrost cycle sounds kind of loud at times with a squeaking noise.

Love this machine so much! Ice is soft but crunchy and it makes a bunch. What a great way to help us stay hydrated. Makes everything taste better. Really! The only thing that I wish could be fixed is the drip from the ice bin when you open it. It drips on the tray provided and is an easy wipe up, but it seems like there should be an easy fix.

Perfect modern design! We decided to upgrade from our old ice maker and could not be happier with the decision! The modern design goes perfectly with our newly upgraded kitchen. The ice bin capacity lasts when hosting guests, you can barely hear the unit when ice is being made and the cleaning/draining functionality is very user friendly!
