So, I'm a fiber artist and need ice to make my art. I can't call the business "ice cold dyes" without the ice part. Anyway, I was spending at least 300 a year on ice, so I figured I'd give this a shot.I like to think I'm competent at most things. I'm not a plumber, but I've Plumbed if you get the idea. Unboxing is easy, it's kind of awkward to move as it's heavy and a lot of it is made of plastic. I don't have a hole in the basement floor, so I had to elevate it. I used a milk crate and the wood it came on in the packaging to get it off the ground so water could drain.I bought a Y shaped hose splitter with individual on/off knobs. I also had to buy a 1" to 3/4" adapter. Attached to the cold water line for my washing machine, hung the filter in the wall, and plugged the line into the ice machine. This process took all of 10 minutes.You turn it on and it flashes zero. You can press up or down. Up means more time in the base cycle (thicker cubes). Down means less. I am finding -4 is about right for my art. It's easy to use. There's probably more features but I don't need em.It's fast. Almost too fast. I will turn it on and it will be full in... No more than 90 minutes? I haven't actually timed it.Getting it out quickly is not happening. I'm going to order a metal scoop because the plastic one that came with it feels like it's gonna break. But whatever. It works, it's quiet, and the blue light makes me feel like I'm in a spaceship. If it lasts a year, it's more than paid for itself. If it lasts 2 and breaks, I'd buy another if I can't fix it.

This product just isn’t worth it. Mother board died after unplugging the machine to clean it. Plug back in and none of the controls work. Light on but dead otherwise. Email back and forth from China and they send me a replacement motherboard board. I take it apart and replace and back to working. Well that last 4 whole months and she’s dead again. Also, when replacing the mother board I found a lot of moisture and corrosion on the sub panel. VEVOR said this is normal and also noted they don’t expect the product to last more than a year. I was shocked but then it all made sense, Cheap Chinese manufacturing and you get what you pay for. Too bad cause when it worked I was very happy with it.Also, don’t use the supplied water filter as it will send white chalky residue through your ice machine. We have a water softener and filter system and once I bypassed the filter the ice was beautiful and the white chalky junk was gone

Arrived well packaged, no damage. Connection was simple. You need a water source similar to what you would use for a refrigerator with an ice maker. You need about a 1 inch drain opening. You need a 110v source for power. It comes with a short set of supply and drain lines. It also comes with a water filter. I replaced the water filter with a quick change filter from local BB store. Also purchased longer supply and drain lines while I was at it. Hookup was simple as I had a location where everything was available, water, drain, and power.Machine made ice right away. Simple to start and stop. Quality of ice is excellent. The storage tray is not refrigerated but when full it will hold ice and keep cold. When in use the ice will slowly melt and new ice will form on top. When not in use, simply shut it off and empty the ice, or just let it melt. Clean cycle is simple and easy to do.Durably built exterior. Well insulated. Quiet operation.Added note: I built a stand for it to sit on. Makes it easy to get ice without having to bend over. We fill coolers and ice bags and it’s much easier when the door is about chest height.

Works great! I need tons of ice for SxS riding, parties, and brewing beer and this thing makes it fast! I have a giant chest freezer that can hold up to fifteen 16 lb bags so it is always full. It has paid for itself at least 3 or 4 times now with the amount of ice I have made. And my neighbors, friends, and family love it. Whenever I head over to someone's place, I am the ice man!

I did a lot of research before purchasing an ice maker for my outdoor kitchen. For the money, I find this one meets my expectations and uses. I’m always disappointed that decent priced ice makers don’t store ice but have remedies by purchased ice bags and putting it my freezer. I like the shape/style of ice that makes drinks very cold. It’s great to already have bags of ice on hand when packing a cooler. I’ve not yet figured out all the settings but can make ice. Comes with all needed to install and anyone can do it. Great purchase for a covered outdoor space.
