I think my first post might have sounded like I wanted to talk about what type of ice; however, I'm mostly interested in knowing whether anyone is using a countertop ice machine and whether they are happy with their purchase? (I did notice your posts in the Opal ice machine thread...and they were good info. But figured that thread topic was specific to getting input on the Opal machine whereas, I was hoping for additional experiences with counter top ice machines.) The opal ice machine sounds nice and may preclude the need to crush. However, $450-500 for what looks like a cheaply built machine that isn't available until next summer doesn't appeal to me right now. (Other countertop ice machines that have a similar size seem to be in the $150-$250 price range.)
