Check out compact appliances.com We bought an ice maker last spring, used it steady for two months. Loved it. Checked the reviews and bout one of the highest rated units. Wile they do not make hard ice, they do make enough to keep a large chest cold for weeks at a time. Ours sat outside on a small table. This spring we bought a compact refer from the same place. This will also sit outside for extra storage. This year the ice will go in that freezer to harden up before being used for drinks. The one we bought was much cheaper than the Dometic version sold at RV parts stores.
