I would say if you're needing to buy a new fridge soon, get one with water and ice. You need to replace the filter every six months or so. Knock off filters can be bought on Amazon at a reasonable price.
I bought a huge stainless steel drinking cup with a metal straw from Amazon that works great. I fill it with water and ice, then refilled with water again and I can get the ice to last at least 12 hours. I've even left it in my car by accident in the sun in the summer, and when I got in after work it still had ice and was cold.
