Outstanding Ice Maker with Nugget Ice Perfection!
I recently purchased the GE Profile Opal 2.0 Portable Ice Maker, and it has exceeded all my expectations. From its sleek stainless steel design to its impressive nugget ice production, this machine is a game-changer for any kitchen. The built-in WiFi feature is incredibly convenient, allowing me to control and monitor the ice maker from my phone. The nugget ice it produces is perfect for drinks, keeping them cool without diluting them too quickly. It's also great for those who love to chew on ice – soft yet satisfying. Setup was straightforward, and the machine started producing ice quickly. It's relatively quiet and fits perfectly on my countertop. The 38 lb. capacity is more than enough for my family's needs, even when entertaining guests. Overall, I highly recommend the GE Profile Opal 2.0 for anyone in need of a reliable, high-quality ice maker. It has truly enhanced our daily routines and gatherings.

Great Ice Machine … Great Ice
I received my ice maker and quickly set it up on my kitchen counter. The setup was simple and didn’t take long to go through the cleaning cycle. Immediately upon turning it on, the loud noise is obvious and you will not miss it. The reviews are correct on the noise. It’s not broken, it’s basically the machine making ice. It will make ice until it fills the ice bin or you turn it off. Now after setting it up, I left for about 4 hours or so.. when I came back it was filled with ice. I mean completely filled and the noise stopped because the ice bin was filled. I was amazed how fast it makes ice. I had an event with about 9 friends over and it didn’t run out of ice. So the noise is a little loud but the operation, great look, and of course the pellet ice makes it an appliance I will keep and love. A little on the pricey side but will recommend the product. The ice making noise is my only con but everything else is a plus. I love my ice maker and oh my god; I love the ice.

Great ice!
Got this for my husband as a Christmas gift. He is obsessed with beverages and ice. This is PERFECT! It makes ice quick and we don’t run out which is amazing. It is more compact than I was expecting it to be which is nice because we do not have a lot of counter space. I do wish I had gotten the side take but I can always add it on. It’s not hard to fill up and you can use the app which is a plus as well.

Fast and great ice
This ice maker is a GREAT time saver and makes entertaining easy. It never stops making perfect ice nuggets. I can always see how it is doing on the app and it is easy to clean. Whenever someone sees it and has the ice they say they want one too!

A Cool Addition to the Family
The Opal 2 Ice Maker has quickly become the MVP of our kitchen — and, according to my wife, possibly the best gift I’ve ever given her (I’ll take that win!). If you’re a fan of those soft, chewable nugget-style ice cubes that somehow make every drink taste better, this machine is a game-changer. Since bringing it home, it’s been a magnet for family and friends. Every guest who spots it in action asks, “Where did you get that?” — and I’m more than happy to point them in the right direction. Pro tip: shop smart and you can snag it at a great price. In short, the Opal 2 isn’t just an ice maker; it’s a family favorite, a conversation starter, and (if you ask my wife) possibly the greatest appliance of all time. Highly recommend!
