I tried one of the portable ice machines, it was crap. We finally installed a small commercial Scotsman on our screen porch. It worked great, we had tons of ice.
We found that with a big blue cartridge filter (replaced a few times a season) and a Trojan UV our water was perfect. We did put an inline before the ice machine and used the factory one in the fridge as well, but did not get into extra filtration under the sink.
This was on an island, drawing lake water.
