Product review (4 stars): great FAST ice, but a little noisy
Purchased for my office, I find it to be noisy-the hum of the compressor and dropping of the ice cubes- but maybe I'll learn to tune it out. it's not overwhelmingly loud, but you couldn't keep it a secret if you wanted to quietly sneak it into your office.  Also may be an issue for an RV/camper if you put it near your sleeping area.  Would be fine at home or in a bar.  makes ice super fast.  for reference, water well hold 3 1/2 liter bottles of water.  don't overfill or the ice will sit in the water and melt.  I turn it off in the afternoon and back on the next morning.
