Product review (4 stars): A good sized 'thwack' on the side quieted it right up
Fans made too much noise when I first turned it on. A good sized 'thwack' on the side quieted it right up.  (I learned this from my dad)

I know I will never get my money back in savings (I'm too old to go camping and do the things I did when I was young) but the crappy ice maker that came with my new Maytag refrigerator has been "repaired" 3 times and likes to take a few vacation days off every once in awhile. At those times of no ice I would pay someone $ 180 to go get 10 lb bags at the 7 / 11.  I bought this for peace-o-mind.
