Nugget ice SZN
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never knew I needed this machine so much! We had a couple ice trays in the freezer that would turn into chaos whenever we had friends over, this high efficient ice maker keeps the party going! Pretty quiet for how fast it works, we upgraded to a stainless steel scooper which I highly recommend, we love that soft chewable nugget ice!

Worth Every Dollar
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This icemaker is definitely an investment, but it’s worth every penny. Even if you don’t love sonic ice this ice is awesome and I really don’t like any other ice cubes anymore.

Sonic Ice

Decent Ice Maker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ice cubes are good, and it makes them pretty fast, but it has a hard time pumping the water and at times the motor makes loud screaming noises.

Very consistent, but keep it clean.
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My advice is to make sure to follow the cleaning instructions and dont leave it in a dust prone area, it will keep making fresh nugget ice all day if you keep the pump and resivour clear.

This is the ONE
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I looked at several different ones and this one is worth the price. It paid off so quickly in return. Still surprises me how much ice this makes per full reservoir.

Make all of your wildest dreams come true
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You know you've reached the climax of adulthood when you get excited about an ice maker. If you want tasty nugget / pearl ice at an affordable price, this is the machine for you. Don't accidently get the Opal 1, it is Opal 2 or nothing. I could make some minor design improvements, but overall it is the best machine at the best price for my budding family's needs. Why don't they put these types of machines in fridges already? YOLO

Opal shines like an Opal
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After owning and tossing ice makers through the years . I purchased the GE Opal. First off, it looks good doesnt look like a disposable appliance. The cleaning and descaling routines assure longevity for hard water households. Ice production is as indicated. It looks and operates like a upscale appliance
