I bought this ice machine because I always drink my beverages iced - especially here in sunny CA. It's a little pricey, but this machine is sturdy and commercial grade. I've been using the ice machine for ~1week now and so far so good.
easy to maneuver, easy to clean, did a great job, and was priced competitively. My husband, who was the one I bought the grill for, was very pleased with it.
