Product review (5 stars): Great Machine
I received my Danby DIM1524W Portable Ice Maker today. It was delivered by UPS at 1 PM today. That is just 3 days after I ordered it online.

This is the 2nd Portable Ice Maker I have had (well 3rd if you count the replacement machine that broke under warrenty from another maker).

Cons:
1. Heavy to be called portable. The UPS guy even commented about that.
2. I will have the wife carry it on her hip, if we need to go anywhere with it. Just like she done the kid (she is more used to 52.5 lbs load then I am). That way all I would need to carry is the Margarita maker!

Seriously 52.5 lbs is not that bad to move out to the patio (picnic table), at the start of summer, and back to the indoor bar (old PC desk) for winter.

Pros:
1. I like the timer.
2. Also the cleaning features of this ice maker.
3. Keeps up on the fly with 2 people no problem.
4. If you use the broken refrigerators ice makers storage box, to store extra ice. You can party, without going to 7eleven for ice.
5. Much better constructed then the Kalorik machine I will have to use as a boat anchor now, because a 2 dollar part from China broke after it was out of its 1 year warranty. (the 2nd machine had to use the first machines date of warranty! After I was told that the 2nd machine would have its own warranty).

The last thing I have to say  about the Danby DIM1524W is. I ran the auto clean mode before I used any cubes (like the directions say  -  see what 30 years of marriage will do to a guy!) and when I made the first ice cubes they tasted just fine.
