    Is an icemaker an absurd luxury? Practically ever fridge I have ever owned has come with one, except like when I was a kid in the 70s.

        Fair, though I feel like most do nowadays? And I’m not living in some McMansion or anything, I’m on the poor end of things, but still I can’t think of a house I’ve lived in in the last ~30 years that didn’t have it.

          In my case, the house I bought had been renovated before I bought it, but so poorly that it was considered a “fixer-upper” anyway. Technically, the kitchen has a refrigerator water supply, but the layout was so awkward that I ended up putting a cabinet in front of it and putting my refrigerator on the other side of the room.

          I eventually ended up getting a countertop ice maker for ~$150, which is less convenient than a built-in one would be, but is also kinda nice because it makes relatively fancy, chewable “nugget” ice.

            Ahh, fair enough. That sucks.

            Though chewable ‘nugget’ ice sounds like a pretty good consolation prize.
