Product review (3 stars): its ok, a bit noisy
it makes ice like the product description says however if you're looking to make a large amount of ice to take with you in your ice chest then you'll have to keep an eye on it throughout the day to empty out the ice.  the machine is not quiet by any means, you can always hear the motor running and the ice cubes falling into the tray.  personally for me i think i would get a more commercial type of ice maker since im always carrying drinks in my ice chest to take wherever i go (games, events, camping, park, etc).

for light usage i think it would work well.  i don't completely regret my decision but if i had to buy another one i would not buy this one again for the capacity/speed reasons i mentioned above
