So far, so good – Our fridge ice maker is terrible and we use a lot of ice, so I purchased this for our family. I see a lot of reviews where people had trouble with the water line popping out of the back of the ice maker. You need to remove the blue clip, push the line all the way in, and then put the clip back in to secure it.

So far ice maker works as intended. – We have friends with this ice maker (diff lable, same item) for 4 yrs it produced ice more than adequately. Of course now it cost more than 2x as much, still it is a luxury we will benefit from. We double filter our water even though our water is pretty darn good from the tap. Quality water is the key to longevity, when it comes to ice makers. They must be installed on a lever surface, both front to back and left to right. Water produces vapor as it freezes so it must be de-frosted periodically. ENJOY.

Love this thing. Makes ice fast. – This was a replacement for one I had for years. Hooked the water up, plugged it back in and it was dropping ice every 30 minutes. My wife uses a lot of ice and she loves this ice maker.

Whynter comes thru when Asurian protection plan Fails – This ice machine worked fine for 3 months and then overheated and died. I called Asurian since I had purchased an extended service plan and they told me that they did Nothing until the manufacture warranty has expired. So I called Whynter customer service and was first told that they had to do phone diagnosis. Three attempts at doing that brought us to the point that they had No local repair. I was transferred to Ailene R who told me that free return was only for 3 months and since my machine was 3.5 months old usually the customer had to pay for the return and Whynter would repair or replace and pay to sent it back. She told me that she was going to talk to supervisor to see if an accommodation could be made. She returned and said that they would pay and send a shipping label but I had to rebox the machine and get it to a Fedex store. I then went looking for Box materials that would hold the machine and found some throw a way’s at an appliance store. I re-boxed and called Ailene R again and she immediately sent a return label. It took a week to get to California. Ailene sent me a e-mail with a proposal to replace the ice maker with a better model. We agreed on the settlement and I am now waiting for my new icemaker. I must admit my dealings with Asurian and the initial agents at whynter were not very customer friendly. Right now I have no idea what good the Asurian policy was or if my non coverage will be put on the replacement. If I had not lucked in to finding Ailene R who was the only agent looking to actually help me thru the situation, I probably would have given up. Customers need to be aware that Asurian is worthless until item is out of warranty. There is No local repairs. If your purchase breaks you are looking at one month to finally get a replacement. Whynter at least replaces the item with a better than original item which makes the time and effort worth it.

Beware of Frost – I bought this after the EdgeStar I purchased (probably made by same company) began frosting up within a week of installation. This one isn’t that much better. Sure, it makes a lot of good ice and quickly, but I’ve already had to defrost it twice in the 2 months I’ve had it. I fired it back up a couple days ago and there is already a lot of frost accumulating around the edge of the unit and on the door. The door seems to have a good seal when closed so I have no idea what’s going on with it. For the price you pay for this unit, one would think that it would only need defrosting every 4-6 months instead of what looks to be a monthly chore for me.
