Yes I have a Dometic fridge and yes I made ice-cubes every evening for
libations and probabaly could have made ice-cubes during the day too. The
food didn't freeze, just two trays of ice cubes...one on each aluminum
platform. Sounds like I'm in a lucky minority....Harry (85 Westy)

You made ICE with a westy fridge?  Is it a Dometic just like the rest of us
have?  This is just about unheard of. Mine certainly would never make ice.
Where did you make ice? Didn't the rest of the food freeze too then?
