A fifteen-inch undercounter ice maker rated at fifty pounds a day into a twenty-five pound insulated bin, with an internal drain pump, a reversible door and a seven-eighths inch cube. It needs a plumbed water line, a nearby drain and four inches of rear clearance, and the maker recommends a licensed plumber.
