Love it!

 

Althogh it might not work for marine applications I still love it and its definitelly a keeper.

Cranks out ice fast and looks really good. Like the removable ice tray and its low price

Could be lighter - 47lbs is a bit to much to be portable. I bought this for my boat and in the instructions it says it has to be on a leveled surface (which is hard to come by on a boat) so don't know if it will work for my application

Awesome Ice maker

 

Great unit...makes ice fast...recycles melted ice. So much better than filling ice trays and waiting. You can bag your own ice and you can take the unit with you. Can't do that with your ice maker in your Refrigerator.

I enjoy mine, but wish the ice reservoir was chilled.

 

It makes Ice fast, great for parties, and as long as you are using it you will not have a problem. The Ice starts melting in the ice reservoir over a period of serveral hours. The ice melt drops into the water reservior and gets made into ice again. It...

Disappointing product

 

This item is primarily made of plastic is about an 18"x18" rectangular block and weighs close to 40-50lbs. This item is a portable ice making appliance that acts as a mobile ice maker that can be used in almost any setting with a standard power outlet....

Lowest priced model available

My unit was not fully functional

Mediocre

 

I got this product as a gift for my dad and we have used this unit about 35-40 times over the last four months. The first 10 or so times it worked fine, but I didn't realize that this is a no freeze storage ice maker.

low cost product and does it job when it functions

Questionable end user support. durability is also lacking

Ice maker is very handy - UPDATE

 

Bought the Sunpentown ice maker about a month ago; we bought it because the ice maker in our refrigerator makes hollow ice cubes and can't keep up with demand during the summer. So far we are very pleased - the unit does what it is advertised to do. As...

Produces good, solid cubes quickly

Cubes must be transferred to a freezer

Wow!! It's the Next Best Thing to an Automatic Ice maker in Your Fridge!! Wonderful!!!

 

WHY THE SUNPENTOWN ICE MAKER?

Performs all the functions of a refrigerator-supplied ice maker! Amazing

Space-robbing. Small cube size selection is not worth the effort

Ice, Ice, Baby: With the Sunpentown IM-100 Ice Maker (UPDATED 06.12.05)

 

(Note: this review has been reposted since Pogomom was kind enough to correct the listing for me.)

Makes ice very quickly

Like hotel icemakers, is not a freezer. Be ready to dump ice into a freezer
