Product review (5 stars): a good investment, and it sure beats paying $400 every ...
this makes ice on a continuous basis, quickly and efficiently.  as long as you keep water in it- it goes! I was concerned about everyone saying that this was not a place to store ice- and it isn't really, but it fills so quickly that I use it when needed, turn it off and turn on again later or the next day.  if I need a larger amount, it is just a matter of dumping in a container for the freezer, and adding more when the next batch comes out. a good investment, and it sure beats paying $400 every time my icemaker has a headache.
