Depending on what kind of an ice aficionado you are, this one if pretty awesome.

You might say, "There's no way I'm paying $400 for an ice maker." But my wife loves pebble ice. Before we had a countertop one, she would go nearly every day to buy drinks from Sonic (or one of the thousand drink shops that Utah has). It didn't take long for this thing to pay for itself.

Before this, we had one made by GE. It looks a little nicer, but is really fragile - just constantly breaking down.

Is pebble ice basically crushed ice or is it the larger size like this? It's a good point about shape, though. I need to figure out exactly what I want.

I did get spousal approval, though, which is the key first step.

It's just like that, in your picture. It's actually many different thin layers of ice, so it just crumbles when you chew it. Honestly, it's pretty amazing - the best ice you will ever have. The cool thing about the one I linked is that it has an option to hook it up to a water source, so you don't have to keep filling the tank. We've had it for a couple months (after the GE one finally crapped out for the last time), and it seems pretty well engineered and constructed.

Damn , I'm almost tempted to buy that . I'm in the same boat with my wife, she has to have a fountain drink every god damn day of my life just because the ice is so ****ing wonderful.

She's not even supposed to drive because of seizure meds and COPD and she took our Durango to the convenient store about a month ago and totaled it on the way home because I was too busy at the moment to drop everything I was doing .

Cost me 13K out of pocket to replace the vehicle.

FYI, Sonic sells their ice by the bag. DON'T ASK ME HOW I ****ING KNOW THAT, I JUST DO!

I bought a fleshlight once but it didnt fit. I was too large for it. Not a bad buy tho compared to white drugs in Mexico. Now thats a regrettable purchase.

You have to have a delayed reaction when reading this thread. Sometimes I'll leave it there for a week or more before clicking on it. That way there are lots of new posts to go through thus limiting you spend too much time looking at one thing and buying it.

Working Hogs all my life I learned to make quick decisions because if you don't then you can end up with Boar semen in your hair.

Thanks for the recommendations, all!

I scheduled a return for the bed LOL. My wife and I decided we didn't like it for a few reasons.

1 - The app is terrible. I often (80% of the time) have to open and close the app 2-4 times to get it to function and change the sleep number on the mattress.
2 - It feels like you're on a glorified air mattress. Maybe because I'm a bigger guy, as I could see there being a difference for "normal" sized folks.
3 - The motion transference is really bad. When my wife gets up, I feel every second of it.

Thankfully I'm still in the return window. Of course, Sleep Number made a pitch to "fix" some of these problems in lieu of returning. They mentioned sending several difference layers of foam, some for under the air chamber, some for in between the two different chambers, etc. etc. I still opted to return.

We went and looked around and decided to try a Tempur Pedic hybrid model next (partially medium-soft memory foam, partially innerspring coils). I think this will work better for what we're looking for, I hope.

[DaFace]

Bummer. Hope you like the Temperpedic!
