This ice maker is awesome.  Period.  We have it sitting on our wet bar and use it for everything from movie night and our own home-made soft ice drinks to just enjoying it to crunch on.  Setup was simple just like running the maintenance on it is.  It has an elegant look to it and complements our wine fridge perfectly.  The amount of ice it makes is ridiculous so it is excellent for when we entertain guests or just having some quick ice to through in a little cooler to take somewhere with us.
