Better to Spend Double

Compared to the 4.5 cu. ft. model on this site, the Insignia model is decidedly inferior. I'd definitely get the much more expensive Frigidare model, if I could.
Here is what justifies my opinion:
The Insignia model is noisy, the compressor makes a clacking / buzzing sound as it operates. By comparison, the Frigidaire is nearly silent, making only the occasional gurgling sound.

Door barriers in the Insignia model completely fail, dumping your food on the floor as soon as you open the door. Thus, door storage is useless.
The refrigerator door holds but six cans of soda - half what the Frigidaire model securely holds.
Finally, the produce drawer is but half the size of the one on the competing model.
BTW, the competing model can readily be found for $30 less than what's posted here ($329)
I bought this unit to replace a Frigidaire model that had it's motor burned out by a power-company related low voltage situation (since corrected).
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Take the ice to the party with this Whynter IMC-270MS 27-lb. compact portable icemaker, which makes 27 lbs. of ice in 24 hours and stores up to 1.5 lbs. at a time. The 2.2L water reservoir and water recycling system efficiently keep cubes coming.

Perfect for One

Machine performs as claimed. It works quietly, and regularly churns out ice every 15 minutes. Ice 'cubes' are shaped like little thimbles. Machine stops operating when basket is full or water is out.
You must manually pour water into this machine. Melting ice is re-made into ice on a regular basis. The ice provides its' own "refrigeration.' Water left in the unit CAN grow moldy and stale.
A full ice basket is just about enough ice to fill a large coffee mug. Combined with the production rate, this means the machine is just right for one person on a hot summer day. For the single person, this machine is a great supplement to a 'dorm' fridge.
I would recommend this to a friend!
