I wonder if we had the same dehumidifier. Same 800 sq ft claim, except it didn't produce ice because it couldn't pull enough moisture out of the air to do so despite it being ~80% humidity in my apartment.

From my understanding, a lot of the products on amazon are resellers that buy stuff from alibaba and then resell it at a markup so it would not surprise me if that was the case.

I'm constantly seeing the same items with different branding all at a similar price point - it's all AliExpress garbage. And if the AliExpress version suits your needs you're better off ordering from AE directly as it's significantly cheaper. AE shipping speeds have improved over the years too, I've gotten items within 1 week several times now
