Product review (4 stars): Works great!
We got this because we were constantly running out of ice in our refrigerator's ice maker and had a space in the kitchen where an old trash compactor used to be, which needed to be filled.  It has been a few days since we installed this item, and so far it has been great.  We didn't use the cheap plastic water line that came with the unit.  We bought steel braided ice maker supply line at the hardware store and used that (the plastic line will be useful on my outdoor drip system, though).  We were sure to connect it with plenty of plumber's tape, and we haven't had any leaking at all.  It makes ice like gangbusters - way more than we can use.  We like to use a lot of ice, too.  It fills up the bin at least a few times a day if you empty it.

We installed this under a kitchen counter.  We actually wanted a full counter height ice maker, but this is WAY cheaper than buying the full height ice makers (which run from $1200 up to $2500).  Unfortunately, though, we'll have to figure out something to fill the approximately 10 inch gap above the machine.  Also, it's a little on the loud side.  Not just when it's dumping ice, but when the compressor is running.  I'm hopeful that when we add a drawer to fill the gap above it, it might be a little quieter.  These are the only reasons it doesn't get 5 stars.  This machine solved a big problem for us, so I hope it lasts!
