Being a counter-top appliance is a big advantage for those that like to have a coordinated kitchen, keeping all their units and counters at the same depth.
The EZ-Touch Crushed/Cubed Ice and Water Dispenser is a good advantage as it easily accommodates oversized cups, and tumblers. There is even a useful on/off light, that serves as a convenient night light, and a lockout feature which is always useful with young children.
Some customers had some problems with some leakage from the dispenser which may have resulted from inferior installation, which is a consideration when purchasing any dispensing refrigerator.
