Ice Ice Baby
Does a person really need an ice maker? Probably not. For years and years, ice cube trays worked just fine (you can even buy those cute silicone ice cube trays that make ice cubes in various shapes like hearts, stars, mustaches, or animals – but I digress). Having said that, if you love to entertain and do so on a regular basis, you might run out of ice when you need it most…
So, if you throw parties at home, and are prone to preparing cocktails for your guests, then an ice maker could be nice. Furthermore, if you happen to be a fisherman or a hunter, you certainly need an ice bucket or two to keep your catch of the day from spoiling. Otherwise, an ice maker is just a luxury. But who says you can’t splurge on an ice-cold luxury if you feel like it?
