Product review (5 stars): No issues  Works quietly and well
After sitting in the box for the required hour to let the coolant drain back into the unit, we plugged it in added water and it made ice.  Filled the tray and stopped, we emptied the tray and off it went making more ice.

Very quiet, none of the plastic tasting ice people are talking about with some models.  The unit is not very large or very heavy.  Should work great in our boat.
