Connect 30min there before the arrival of your guests and enjoy these wonderful icicles that never end to form. If the 1st small (but quite usable), from the 3rd batch they are perfect. I only use size S and it is clearly sufficient. Farewell trays from the freezer and ice shortage during unannounced visits (6 min for the 1st ice in size S, a little more for the other sizes). Quiet machine. drain plug to the side. It's great, I love
