That generation of Trio you bought was manufactured by LG for Sears (Kenmore). As a general rule, if you're looking for water system performance stay away from the Korean and European manufacturers as they're just now getting into water systems. The American manufacturers have been doing it for 20 years.

The previous generation of Trio, manufactured by Amana/Maytag/Whirlpool, cools the water much better since the tank is in the fresh food compartment. I have one in my kitchen (and I designed portions of the system) and it cools my water to teeth-tingling temps. The one "problem" it has is that it doesn't deliver the water to door. The dispenser is inside (which I prefer) and you have to get your ice from the bucket in the freezer.

I'd stick with an Amana or Maytag-branded Whirlpool if you decide to go American.
