Portable ice makers

[rodro123]

We bought on sale from Target 3 summers ago, it was on sale for $79, since then it paid for it self at least by twice. We use it camping, small partys at our house. In fact if you start making ice at 9am and fill a ice buckets you will not run out of ice. We have had 9 people over and everyone was drinking mix drinks for several hours and never ran out of ice in fact we had to dump out unused ice that night. Best buy we made was the ice maker. We love the cubes it makes totaly clear no whiteness in the cubes just make sure you use a filter in your kitchen water supply.

The only thing that keeps me from getting one is the space that they occupy. I was on-board with the idea til I noticed how big they were. The wont fit inside any of the cabinets in my TT and I tent to keep the under cushion storage to the non-food items.

BUT

If I were given one, Id find a place to put it.

In between camping trips I store my ice maker in my TT bath tub.

I store tons of stuff in the tub while traveling. I'd probably store the dog there too, if we traveled with ours!

The comment above was made from reading bad reviews on the web.
After reading the replies and good reviews here, I may reconsider buying one.

I am shopping around for an ice maker. Amazon has a few that look promising. Camping and living in AZ, we buy alot of bags of ice for the beer cooler. Storing it in the bath tub is a great idea!!! I will probably set it up on our table next to the outlet on the RV for use during the camping trips. I have heard the ice is kinda "mushie" and not hard cubes. Do you think these cubes would last in the cooler??
