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.

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.

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!

Many appreciate its compact size and sleek design, while some find the noise level and the need for frequent cleaning to be drawbacks. The water tank's design also received mixed reviews, with some users finding it inconvenient to refill. Although the WiFi functionality is a plus for some, concerns about reliability were also raised by several customers.
