Portable ice makers

The DW thought it would be a good idea to buy a Mr. Freeze automatic ice maker. We have not used it in "production", just in a small "QA" test. The first thing I found was while it does make ice, it does not store ice. So as soon as it makes ice you have to move it to a freezer otherwise you just end up with water. It seems it's actually more work than filling ice trays. The second thing I learned is once again I'm having to rearrange some storage bins to make room for the ice maker.

Much better off either just keeping a few ice trays in the freezer, or buying a small bag of ice from time to time.

There may be other options, just reporting on mine. Read the box...
