    Great ice maker

    I recently purchased the GE Profile Ice Maker, and I couldn’t be happier with it! The quality of the ice is amazing—perfectly soft, chewable nugget ice that makes every drink better. It’s easy to set up, works quickly, and looks sleek on the counter. If you love restaurant-style ice at home, this is definitely worth it. Such a great addition to the kitchen!

Questions & Answers

  • How long does the ice last once it is produces. How many hours? What happens when the ice melts?

    The Opal Ice Maker produces over one pound of ice per hour, and the bin holds three pounds of ice at a time. The length of time that the ice lasts once produced depends on the ambient temperature. As the ice melts, the ice maker recirculates the melted ice to the water reservoir. It will continue to make ice until the bin is full, or it runs out of water.

  • Do the nugget Ice Maker has a refrigerator system that keep the ice cold without melting.

    Our Opal does not keep ice frozen in the ice bin. Water from the thawed ice is recirculated back into the reservoir, ensuring that you have access to delicious chewable nugget ice whenever needed.

  • How easy is it to clean to keep mold from grown in it

    First, we recommend only using distilled water in your Opal to help reduce the potential for mineral buildup. It is recommended that you follow the instructions in the owner’s manual for your unit regarding the schedule of running descaling and sanitizing cycles. Using vinegar in the descaling cycle can help break up the minerals as well. It’s important to note that distilled water is different from bottled water, reverse osmosis water, filtered water, or spring water. All of these other options contain varying levels of minerals that can build up in the unit and impede optimal operation. Using distilled water reduces the frequency of descaling and cleaning. Using our scale-inhibiting filter, part P4INKSFLTR, is designed to increase the time between cleanings and reduces the solidification of scale. It is recommended that there be at least 4” of clearance in the back, on both sides, and above the Opal to allow proper air flow so that the fan can move air about the unit. Please review the article titled “Opal Ice Maker - Black Residue” on the GE Appliances website for further guidance.
