Ice Maker!

Its an early christmas Just got an emerson ice maker today. Its setting on the counter now coughing out cubes at the rate of about every 10 mins. If I can get enough made before I get to impatient I will be making margaritas with the ice later this evening. I think I am going to like it. It does make some noise though.

I have one of these. Love it! Keep a cooler close in warm weather the ice maker will not keep the ice frozen once it's done making the ice.

You won't hardly notice the sound of the ice maker over the blender while making margaritas.

We got one of those from Costco a couple of years ago - we took it on a couple of trips when we had hook-ups, and were the 'hit' of our crowd!

Alas, it crapped out on us at home after about 14 months! The refer freon circuit has failed somewhere - the compressor 'hums' but it won't cool...a real disappointment - we have a 50 year old refer that still works in our garage - why can't this 'new' crap take-a-lickin-and-keep-on-tickin?

That cube maker was fun while it lasted, but now it's just a $150 door stop...

It's the refer gods gettng back at you for keeping such an inefficient power-hungry fridge waaay too long!

You might actually notice a difference in your monthly bill if you get rid of it. I know I did when I gave in a 25 year old one for recycling...
