Does it keep the ice frozen like a freezer after the ice is made

It does not, it doesn't melt immediately but if you left it for quite sometime it melts. It would be nice to have a unit that dropped it into a freezer then continued to make more. We do really like it though...great for camping!!

You have to empty the ice. The ice maker and the ice it produces are wonderful! It has saved us so much money buying ice every week. I highly recommend it.

It sure does! Since isn't insulated, I don't know how long the ice will remain ice, but there is plenty of room. The mouth of the bottle is plenty wide. Hope this helps!

I froze mine. It has special extra long lasting cubes in the gel and will stay ultra cold for an hour. You will freeze before it thaws.

The ice container is not refrigerated so it's more like having ice in a small cooler. It doesn't stay frozen very long but as they melt the water is recycled to make more ice.

If this is the same product that I own (it looks like it) I have found NO defects in it. It makes ice quickly. It obviously isn't a freezer, so one shouldn't expect it to stay frozen for an extended period.

Yes it does! Every morning I add the frozen stick to the bottle. Sometimes it's hard to put it in because it's so cold, but it does work. I can't say the freezer stick keeps the water freezing cold, but it does work to some extent!

The water around it and looking through the center are not frozen. It thaws just enough water so the unit can still move around a little. The unit kept a hole in the ice all winter in Michigan and that's all you need to let the gasses escape.

No you don't. If it produces ice while out, the ice will just go down in the water.

If the alcohol was in the freezer and the mix-in is very cold and sugary, it works well. To keep the drink slushy, it must stay in the Slush Mug.

No it does not. I did not need it. The cooler is light enough to tip while full if needed, but the ice last all day.

its starts melting at first, and then the whole unit cools down, any ice that melts goes back into the pool of water used to make the ice. After the unit gets going, the ice melts very slowly, you won't be disappointed. If any ice melts, the unit just keeps on making ice so there is always fresh ice in the unit for when you want it.

It's OK if it freezes. It's a very durable product as long as you don't overfill it it works the same frozen or not.

YES, It keeps ice in the bin at all times and only makes ice when the sensor reads a lower ice level.

If you are talking about putting frozen items on it to cook, probably. If you are putting items on it to defrost minus cooking it at the same time, it will defrost as it would on a plate at room tempitur

It depends how warm the environment is, how much food you'll have and how many ice packs you'll use. The more you use, the more likely the food will stay cold/frozen.

yes, but it peels away easily and leaves a thin film of ice that clears off easy. very useful.
