Product review (5 stars): purchased this item for my husband and it works wonderfully. No need for a water line and continous ice availbility.
I purchased this item becuase we have our freezer out in the gargae and it was quite inconvient to go out there just to get ice for a drink.  I placed this on my counter top in my limited spaced kitchen and it works wonderfully. No need for a water line and it provides ice continously.
