I bought this fridge after buying a Shrade portable fridge (SCHF64CP). I figured bigger ice would be a better tool for breaking a 16 inch log into smaller pieces. I think my reason was reasonable only this tool doesn't work. That's why I think he failed so decisively. The main reason is that the blade isn't thick enough for any meaningful work, I measured the thickness of 5.4mm with vernier calipers, and secondly, instead of a wedge-shaped blade profile for splitting, it's flat on one side, like a bread knife. buy again? no Would I recommend this tool to everyone? no
