I live in a small apartment in Boston and my freezer is basically a shelf for frozen peas and one ice cube tray. With summer coming, I'm thinking about a countertop ice maker so I can keep drinks cold without sacrificing freezer space. I don't need anything fancy, just enough bullet ice for a couple of people. I came across this page about a Silonn model that claims around 26 lb a day:

. The part I'm unsure about is whether these little machines keep up in a warm kitchen and how loud they actually run on a counter. I'm also wondering if the first batch melts fast if you leave it sitting. Has anyone here run a countertop ice maker in a cramped apartment? I'd like to hear how it worked out before I spend the money.
