“Opal 2.0 works great. As soon as we tried this side tank our iced turned from cubed into shaved/slush. Any Idea why? NOTE: the hoses weren't impeded in any way.”

Hey there - thanks for reaching out about your Opal icemaker. We’re glad to learn that you’re loving your new Opal 2.0 icemaker, but certainly understand why you’d like some clarification on this issue. When you first start the Opal (or make a switch to the side tank) and it begins to make ice, the initial batches of ice nuggets will be slushy. After about 30 minutes, your Opal will be making good, solid nuggets. If the ice nuggets are all slushy (even the ones at the top of the ice bin), the unit may need to be cleaned. -- For cleaning instructions, see the “Care and Cleaning” section in your manual, starting on page 7: https://content.syndigo.com/asset/6156244d-7fe1-4d30-bf7b-ce7ecd405b25/original.pdf -- If the unit continues to make soft, slushy ice or has never made good ice, please contact our Opal Support Team by calling 866-907-6718, or by submitting the Opal support request form on our GE Appliances website. We hope this information is helpful, and if there is anything else we can assist with, please feel free to reach out to us on social media anytime. Take care. Lauren@GEA
