Esta fabrica de hielos, es pequeña pero muy funcional, el problema que se le presenta es que el área donde se reciben los hielos fabricados, no es térmica y tienden a derretir muy rápido lo hielos.Si contara con un recipiente térmico, sería fabuloso este equipo

Es realmente un artículo muy útil, fabrica hielos con buena frecuencia, en 1 hora ya tienes toda la cesta llena y cuando detecta que el nivel de hielo bajó sigue haciendo más. Muestra un led por si falta agua o cuando ya está llena de hielos. Útil para cuando estás en una oficina o cuando ocasionalmente estás bebiendo líquidos fríos constantemente durante una jornada. Es silenciosa no hace mucho ruido y su tamaño es ideal para cualquier mesa.

I bought this at the beginning of October 2018, and we've basically been using it every other day since then. We let it fill the bucket twice, emptying it into the freezer when it's full, then we turn it off till the next time. It makes ice very quickly, which is a great feature. It does make a noise when it's running, but it's not that bad, it's quieter than a microwave.Just so people are aware, this isn't designed to hold ice for long periods of time. Once it's full, it needs to be emptied into a freezer or else it will melt.

Después de un mes de uso puedo decir que es un buen producto los primeros hielos se deshacen muy rápido pero después de 10 minutos empiezan a salir muy bien, yo lo uso para tomar whisky con hielo de vez en cuando y me funciona muy bien en verdad lo recomiendo

Love it! Have been using it for a couple months now and it's working great... The cubes are a bit softer than ones you would make using ice cube trays in a freezer, but I like the chew ability of them... It makes the cubes at a good pace... It wouldn't keep up with a big party, but for a few people it's fine... It doesn't make too much noise when it's running, it lets you know when you're low on water, and the cubes don't melt too fast if they'll left sitting in the machine... I leave the machine running and if the cubes melt, the water drips back into the water reservoir to be made into new cubes... At the end of the day I find that some of the melted cubes have stuck together so I either break them apart with the ice scoop and use them, or dump the ice basket into the reservoir and it makes a new batch of cubes in the next 15 minutes... I like the amount of water the reservoir holds - you don't run out of water too quickly, and the ice scoop is the perfect size for filling up a glass...**I did want to mention that when it arrives, you have to let it sit right side up for 24 hours so that the fluids inside the machine find their way back to where they need to be... Mine was not delivered 'Right Side Up', but I let it sit for 24 hours and it worked perfectly at first and since... I wonder if some of the people who had trouble at first may be experiencing it because it was not kept 'Right Side Up' during delivery or when it was delivered, and then not allowed to sit for those 24 hours...

once it gets going its pretty fast. if its a hot party idk about supplying more than 2 people hi-balls tho. casual sodas/punch a glass every 20mins or so then 2 maybe 3 people are covered. if the room is cool and the water is room temp it makes the first batch in under 8 mins but the cubes may be small,then it gets going and ur set. u fill ur glass with the ice BUT the ice is full of air (white cubes) so u NEED a full glass to get a room temp soda or punch cold. lets see how long it lasts.i got and extended warrantee ,something i always tell people not to get suckered into,but there where reviews of people having these work flawless for 6-10 months then bang-nuthin-dead, so i figured its hit n miss. i think part of it could be because its small it gets turned all directions and upside-down during shipping and refrigerant units arent supposed to be treated that way,so i left mine 24hrs upright before first startup,hope that helps,time will tellupdate: 4 months ,away for a month ,back for 3 weeks BANG done. its dead. o it functions normally ,but just makes cool water. goes thru the complete cycle and u even see little pieces of icelets on the finger thingies,but i believe the coolant has leaked out. that makes me feel good as ive always wanted to unknowingly breathe in a gaseous chemical that doesnt exist in nature. now time will tell if the extended warrantee company will honor it and replace this thing or refund.

I have owned this machine only a few hours and I already love it. When I was pregnant I got a bit anemic and loved chewing on ice. I still crave it. The ice at my house is too hard on my teeth and I was spending money at Sonic and AM/PM for the "crunch" and "pellet" ice. I was apprehensive buying this machine but reviews were great and I have to say I couldn't be happier. The ice is delicious and definitely munchable. It's not pellet ice, but it's still very easy to eat. The best part it that it melts a bit in the tray making it very soft and pleasing, easy on the teeth. I use the small size setting. A few notes: The instructions say to let the machine sit for 2 hours and not to turn it upside down due to the refrigerant. I didn't realize this when unpacking it and had tipped it on it's side to remove from the box. The machine makes 10 cubes at a time. I expected more, but given that it makes them in under 10 minutes it's not a big deal, just something to be aware of if you're planning for more than yourself. You'll definitely want to remove the ice and freeze it in your fridge to be ready. The other thing is that it was hard for me to fin the max water line because it blended into the white plastic. I had to actually feel for it and once I felt it I could see it, but initially I didn't notice it. If anyone likes ice and is looking for chewable ice, but doesn't want to spend a fortune on the fancy machines I would highly recommend this ice maker.

Great little convenience item !!!Make ice quickly, and quietly. With a machine that take up just a small amount of counter space. Just add H2O !!!The ice machine does make some ambient noise when in use, and when done the sound of moving parts inside paired with new ice being added to the removable ice bin is all you will hear.This machine does not refrigerate the ice that it creates. It will store it till it melts back into water, which will then be created into ice again. if you leave it plugged in and on it will continue this process over and over, until the water needs to be refilled, or it simply stops working. I would suggest making the ice you need when you need it, or make it and store it, then turn the machine off, and unplug it.The only thing that I have had a problem with is the lid which opens on the top of the device. It is quite bothersome when you are trying to access your ice. it opens to a point, to were it is standing straight up, and is not allowed to lean back, causing it to fall forward when you are trying to shovel ice out with the included mini ice scoop. I solved this problem by covering my ice machine with a towel, and when I open the lid I just place the towel over it, when it is in the open position. It works, and The lid no longer unexpectedly closed in the middle of me accessing ice.Another note for would be owners of this contraption, is that naturally, as the machine makes its batches of ice, the longer it is left to do so, the larger that ice cubes become. I am assuming that this is due in part to the cooling coils becoming more cold after each batch, and also that the water is somewhat becoming more cool, as it is turned into ice , and melted = cold water lol.This particular machine offers two setting small and large, in reference to the size of ice cube you would prefer. I leave mines on large, and have not tried the smaller setting yet.These ices cubes are great for use in water bottles, and Hydro Flasks, and will fit in most openings. I have even fit smaller ones into plastic water bottle openings ( one-by-one ).I have no gripes with this machine, and am glad that I decided to invest in one, I no longer have to sacrifice, frezzer space, nor do I have to buy bags of ice, unless I'm filling a cooler for the beach.
