Whynter - 17" 49-Lb. Freestanding Icemaker - Stainless Steel
Keep your drinks cold with help from this Whynter IMC-491DC freestanding icemaker, which produces up to 49 lbs. of bullet-shape ice per day, including up to 12 cubes per 10- to 15-minute period. The 5L manual water reservoir simplifies refilling.

Works well for a while

I've gone through two of these now and one smaller capacity unit of a different brand. All three of them have worked less than 1 year before breaking down. I keep buying these because we had previously gone through a similar process with the icemaker in our Samsung refrigerator. I don't remember it ever being this difficult to make ice before we "upgraded" our refrigerator but I digress. I've resorted to buying these units with the Best Buy extended warranty and I'm about to use it for a second time. The first unit stopped making ice after about a year. The second unit just failed tonight. After running a cleaning cycle I turned it back on and the automatic water refill kept running and overflowed. Luckily we were home when it happened or it could have been a big disaster. The current unit is 11 months old.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Do you need conect to a line water or can you fill in a water deposit?

Connecting to a water line is optional. You can manually refill the water reservoir.
