Costway Portable Ice Maker Machine Countertop 26Lbs/24H Self-cleaning w/ Scoop Red

This was a gift for my grand daughter, and she loves it. So do her 3 kids. They were always buying ice, saves her some money. She had a birthday party for her son and didn't run out of ice. If you don't have an ice maker, this is the next best options. Elaine T

I've had a few of these countertop ice machines. This one came with a cleaning mode to clean your unit. it also had a larger fan grate to keep your unit cooling properly. definitely one I would buy again.

It makes ice so quickly! It doesn't take up too much room on the counter. Very convenient! Check that the plug is in before first water fill. Mine wasn't. The instructions are a little hard to follow as it seems they were poorly translated. However, it's not rocket science. The instructions say that there are two sizes of ice cubes but I can't find where you change that.

This ice machine takes up a bit more counter space than I thought and is louder than expected but the ice is worth it! works well and consistently and despite being louder I would purchase again.

This is not my first ice maker. It is definitely the slowest at producing ice. It's cute, but do yourself a favor and pay a little more if you want better ice production. It's not terrible, it's just “meh”… so I guess it's better than nothing. It does not keep up with my older ice maker that I paid $45 more for. I bought this for the color, since it goes better with my kitchen decor and my older ice maker is bright red (hubby ordered the first one he can across). This one is noisier as well. Thing to note- these cheaper ice makers only make ice. They don't keep it from melting. (Those ice makers are a few hundred dollars.) I don't mind this since the ice melts and the water just gets turned into ice again. This particular one is just slower. There are faster producing ones out there. It does make soft bullet shaped ice that is good for chewing. (PS -don't do that. It's terrible for your teeth. I know from experience. And if you're craving ice, have your iron levels checked. That's a symptom of anemia/iron deficiency.)

DO NOT BUY THIS!! I bought this because I thought it was a good product and Costway was supposed to be a good brand name. Nope!! I used it for barely 3 weeks and the whole condensor died. Wouldn't do anything after that.

It has stopped working. It should have lasted longer than this. I bought it to replace a count top ice maker that had last 2 years. This one CONSTANTLY has to be reset and today, it quit.

I gave a low star rating because after waiting weeks, which should have been days only, my order was cancelled. No explanation, just no choice to have this. This was to be a surprise gift and I'm very disappointed. No reason for this to happen.

Unit worked well for 9 months and then stopped working. Disgraceful that this company only guarantees their product for 90 days. They are knowingly selling junk. Don't waste your time.

The time that it is suppose to put out the first batch of ice lengthens with every use. I purchased this one for the clean option and there is no difference in the inside at all and I followed the directions. Also, you have to totally unplug it to turn the machine totally off. The machine itself is off but the light continues blinking until you unplug it. And, it will not change from making ice to the cleaning mode like after you are finished making the amount of ice you want and want the last step to clean it. I cannot figure out how to change from small ice to large. it seems to only make large, even though the instructions tell you the need to change from large to small or vice versa depending upon the temperature in the room. I HATE this machine. Thank goodness I purchased the warranty that was optional. I will be contacting them after this and wonder what kind of customer service they give.
