Our fridge doesn't have an ice maker so I bought this and it works great.  You do have to plan before hand about your ice...it takes several hours to make ice...so start it at night and in the morning you will have some ice....then depending if that is all you want you will need to add more water to get more ice...I usually put the ice in a gallon bag and throw that in the freezer for when I need it. For big parties...it would be faster to just buy a bag of ice from the store. Perfect for a family usage but not parties unless you don't need ice very quickly.
