Thank you so much for your video on the ice maker. I bought mine from Amazon, no name brand and I've had it maybe couple of weeks, and the little screen in the reservoir came off. No idea how so I watched your video and it showed how that grid was supposed to fit. I put it on and now even though I have three "small" light pressed I'm getting large harder ice. It still works; we'll see.

I keep an ice chest filled with drinks for delivery drivers in the summer as it commonly gets to 110° here in Oklahoma. I was spending so much on bags of ice. This is the ice maker I got this past summer & it's wonderful 👍I'm able to keep the ice chest completely filled 24/7 with ice for the drinks June through September! I love this thing!!!

I love my ice. Just bought this tonight. By the way, in the UK they don't have fountain drink machines at their convenience stores to get ice. I was ice deprived 😭for two weeks. It was awful. The only places I could get ice were the Pubs and restaurants. When I'd ask for ice for my Contigo water bottle at the Bed and Breakfasts they gave me maybe 2-3 inches of ice. WTH? The others would laugh and say "Ice? Oh that's an American thing." Then we couldn't find ice trays anywhere to put them in the fridge at the Youth Hostel. I'm from Colorado so yah, it was different than what I was used to.

Just got mine .. It was actually a return @ WM .. only cost me 1/3 the usual price. No instructions inside, but I should be able to find them online somewhere.

Does yours have that gap?

I want to know how it’s working after 1 year if it’s still working? As I was told to never use till 24 hours of sitting after taken out of the box and 2 hours of tipped .

Those a great questions. A year later and the ice machine is still running and working well. I have from time to time to drained the water and wiped down the inside of the reservoir with Lysol disinfectant wipes and then rinsed and dumped the water again, before using the machine. I live on an acreage and our well water is clean and pure with no additives, so I wonder if we lived in a city, if the city water would be harder on the machine. It still works great and I’m happy with it!

Agreed, I have one and it seems to work great, however, the ice is wet when I take it out and place into a freezer for storage so the ice sticks together which is annoying.

I got one a few days ago at Walmart for $145 Canadian and I love it. actually bag my ice and put it in the freezer for future use and I was surprised at how fast it made ice. My instructions though say not to put it near any source of heat so you should find a better spot for it.

The New Box has no warranty!!! Frigidare has gone the way of many good companies. I used to be a dealer, so I know. One clue was that I was speaking to folks in India. Buyer beware!!
