This is for my husband, and it is the second time I have bought an ice maker. He wants an ice maker that is quiet, fast and can choose the size of the ice cube. This machine satisfy all his demands, and it is easy to use,easy to clean, the price is very affordable .we like it .This is my second ice maker. The only difference between them is the ice size. With this machine there is little to no difference in ice size between small and large.Makes ice ok, but just a tad slow. It worked ok for camping.I absolutely love this ice maker. We live in Florida, and we made 3 gallon size bags full in 1-1/2 days. We put in our freezer in case power outage. It was awesomeWith this machine if I plan ahead I will never run out of iceSimple to use, friendly price and easy to carry with. Seems perfect to me.It did work ok the couple of days I tried it.You have to run about 3 cycles before the unit's clean and clear.I returned this because it had so many warning labels. I erred on caution and returned it.As a gift they really liked it
