Works so far.

Consumer Reports recommended this model and it was readily available in a store near me. My previous Frigidaire dehumidifier lasted 16 years. I was impressed with that service life to keep my basement dry. Reviews have stated that this and all other dehumidifiers will die within 2 to five years due to fatal electronic failures. This is now typical for all appliances unfortunately. They don't make them like they used to and Frigidaire is now owned by Electrolux to boot.
Will have to see how long this model will last. Durability was not rated for dehumidifiers by Consumer Reports which was disappointing but is indicative that manufactures are making things to throw away and not to last. I did buy the 4 year store warranty due to other reviews stating that this model will die within a 2 to 5 year time period. Read the warranty!
It is working as expected for now, but will have to see if it will stand the test of time. Have owned it for a month and counting.
There are a few things about this model that I do not like.
The bucket that collects water is horribly small for this unit, only 2 gallons or 16 pints! Best option is to have it drain through a hose which is located on the left hand side of the unit to a floor drain.
The worst design flaw with this model is the air intake is at the rear of the unit and not at the front where the bucket is. With this in mind the unit will be taking in air from the wall side so you will need a lot of room between the wall and the unit. Bad engineering, the intake should be at the front facing toward the center of the damp room. The discharged air flows out of the right hand side of the unit. This units layout may not be the best option for your situation so give it a think over.
My old Frigidaire had the air intake in the front over the bucket with the air discharge on the left and hose drain on the right.
Consider where you will be placing your dehumidifier, the air intake, the air exhaust and drain position before purchasing.
Good luck.

Any issues with the unit not turning off and leaking all over? I'm currently in the 2nd floor apartment and a little worried about overflow.

As long as you read the directions and take the blue tape off of the float, the unit will shut off before overflowing.

Is it normal for a thick, long bar of solid ice to develop?

Had the unit for almost four months and recently a long, solid block of ice has been developing on the back. It doesn't cover the entire filter, but is about an inch tall and goes the length of the filter. This isn't normal is it?

Not normal !
Either the room is below 60 to 65 degrees, or the sealed refrigerant system has failed and has leaked Freon.
Try taking it outside and running it for a few hours in the warm humid air to see if the problem persists.
If it does then the sealed refrigerant system has a leak and has failed.
Grab your receipt and warranty quickly. Read the warranty! Everything is covered within the first year only.

Is this a portable model that I can move from room to room?

Yes, just need a standard electrical outlet. You will have to dump the small 2 gallon or 16 pint bucket often if you do not have a drain nearby.

Not normal. Icing on the air intake will only occur if it is operating in a room that is too cold, below 60 degrees or it is low on Freon. More than likely the sealed system has failed and the lack of Freon is causing it to ice up. Give it a try outside for a few hours where it is warm and humid to see if it is still icing. That will tell you for sure that if it is low on Freon and the sealed system has a leak and that it is not a cold room causing the icing. I'm thinking get out your warranty and your receipt and act quickly!
