Not a good experience with RCS Nugget Ice Maker

I was excited to get this nugget ice maker and purchased it because of the warranty and because I had good experience with an RCS outdoor refrigerator I purchased 3 years ago. I was extremely disappointed when after being connected for only 2 weeks that the icemaker began making a loud banging noise and suddenly stopped working. I expected much more from this brand. Hopefully this is a "one off" situation but it didn't even work for 30 days.

Fantastic choice for customer service and order help!

Purchased this to replace a 9 year old machine that died. When researching a like kind replacement I saw this machine which was comparable by volume and it was still the nugget ice which is a must. I called to ask questions regarding the machine and the customer service person was very knowledgeable and looked up one of the technical questions that I asked that she was not sure about. The warranty was the same as the other machine but this one had an extended warranty that covered parts and labor and was still cheaper than the original machine. Shipping was fantastic!!!!! Ordered around 11am one day and the delivery truck was at my driveway at 8am the next morning. I will definitely purchase from BBQ Guys again and have already recommended them to several people.

Hi Jason. As long as the ice maker is drained, disconnected, and emptied when temperatures will remain below 40 F, it should be fine to leave outside.

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
