The icemaker arrived on the day promised in perfect condition although the delivery company delivered it upside down.  I unboxed the unit and let it sit for 24 hours before installing it.  The installation we chose is a free standing one so it was just a matter of hooking up the water line and plugging it in.  It wasn't long before the first batch of ice fell into the bin.  We are extremely pleased with this unit as we are never without ice now.  I recommend it.
