You may want to check Walmart.com. Their site is down for scheduled maintenance at this time but we got ours there for less than $100. I can't remember the brand but it was offered in white & stainless. It works exactly as advertised.

Walmart online today showed one on sale for $99. I believe it is an Igloo brand.

There are two sizes. The smaller MSRP is 149.99 from emerson, igloo (the brand I bought) and a few other copies. There is a larger one that you see on camping world which MSRP is 299 but I have seen for as low as 175 online. I like the smaller igloo as it tucks away easilly in the 5er and produces enough ice for a couple of adults enjoying mixed beverages. Anything more then that and I would get bagged ice.

Mine is the Emerson which they rate to produce between 26-30 pounds of ice per day. Regardless of which model or size CW sells, even their sale price is to high.

One point of caution (you guys correct me if I'm wrong), this is an "ice maker" and not an "ice keeper". When it's making ice you have to monitor the output and be putting it in the freezer or cooler....correct? Some of our camping buddies have one and they are a great little appliance.

That is the great thing about this. It auto stops when full, and when the ice melts it melts back into the resevoir under the ice basket. So other then topping off the water now and then as you use ice, it can keep up with moderate usage. And if you want you can pull the ice out and bag it.
