Are you supposed to fill it with water? Does it come with ice packs?

Yes, it does come with ice packs. It works best with cold water and the ice packs in a combination. Keeps the room cool throughout the summer night.

Yes fill with water comes with one ice pack to put in with it. But I don't recommend this product it doesn't even work right unless I got a defective unit

It comes w/ice pack but I fill w/ice cubes. Definitely cools air. Loud on high, not bad on M & quiet on low.

It comes with a prepackaged mix that you add water too. These mixes are also sold separately.

It comes with an Ice pack, but we have used also soft ice packs too bc we forgot to freeze the ice pack a few times :)

Mine included ice packs but I never use them as they would melt very quickly. I do have the packs filled with water though to add extra weight to the feeder.

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.

It comes with them, I give this ice pack an 8 out of 10. Definitely worth buying until I invent a better version.

the instructions say you can put ice in the top bin, just lift the lid. or there is a put-out-shoot on the right side for water and ice. but since i haven't used ice or water yet i don't know for sure.

Just so you know, I adore this machine! OK, your question. Just ice cubes. The trick is you fill the ice cube tray and wait 20min. to make the drinks. Perfect consistancy every time!!

I only put ice packs and they don't leak when they melt. The water collects in the lunch bag. Not sure about straight ice.

No, it does not (comes with a gel pack that we never use); however, ice in a ZipLoc bag works great.

This does not come with the ice pack in the lid. It has a lid that fits and closes snuggly without having to zip it up, which makes it easier and quicker to open and close it. I don't know if you would be able to find any ice packs that would fit perfectly on the lid without falling off. I don't think this one is made for that feature unless you rig it up somehow.

filled with water...and yes you could add something to the water like a sprig of mint, fruit, etc. However, whatever you add may not stay in the middle while freezing but may shift to the bottom of the container while freezing.

No. I sent mine back bc it was shipped without a ice pack in the middle of summer.

mine didn't come with an ice pack either. If fact, it was actually hot. I am worried it won't be effective now. Anyone know??

there is no ice pack embedded. if you put ice in with your beverage it will stay cold for several hours.

Adding ice would be easily because the filling hole is big enough -- but I'm not certain how one would KEEP the water cold. :)

It does come with some ice packs. Maybe 4 if I remember correctly. I bought extras to have them on hand.
