Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Opal 2.0 ice maker, particularly the excellent ice quality and ease of use. The side tank and its convenient size for countertop placement are also well-received. However, some customers have concerns regarding the noise level and long-term reliability, while others feel the cleaning process is a bit lengthy.

    Sonic has some of the best Ice, but this Ice machine, will definitely give it some good competition! I love my ice in my Iced tea and juice! I’m so glad that I invested in this product!

    Quick production and style of ice are the best features of this ice machine. This thing rattles loudly (out of the box) and always seems to be dripping. It could also use better insulation. It seems to make ice (or not) whenever it feels like it. For me, this would be a great product for $50 to $100, but it’s not worth $500+.

    The only reason for less than5 stars is the noise level. Otherwise, fantastic ice without opening the freezer.

    nice ice maker. Side tank holds less water than previous tank. Love the nugget ice. If the side tank were larger i would have given it 5 stars.

    It is good while it last. Only lasted a couple of years, I used it sparely. Way to expensive to die 2 months after extended warranty expired.
