Ice cubes looking amazing. Fill glasses well. Extremely simple installation. It requires just some basic plumbing knowledge, so no worries about that at all. Durable and convenient. Easy in usage, with touch screen controls. Machine runs the same good when the temperatures get higher in our prep kitchen with no air conditioning. I advise to use a water filter of a good quality for the ice machine serve longer and ice taste better. They offer a good price here. Obviously a good choiceRecommended Product
Pros: 2-5 year warranties

My previous icemaker was a Manitowoc it provided excellent service for 20 years. So when it was time to replace my icemaker I chose Manitowoc and I would recommend this product to everyone. The engineer, design and quality of material is excellent and obvious.
