Customers highly value the Opal 2.0 ice maker's excellent ice quality and ease of use. 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.

    Perfect ice nuggets. After the initial cleaning, the nuggets start to pile after 15-20 mins as stated. Ice is nice and soft and easy to chew. Only putting bottled water in it help reduce any calcium build up.

    This ice maker makes great ice. Similar to sonics ice. Great for crunching. My family of 4 goes through a lot of ice everyday and this machine keeps up with us.

    Broke twice in 9 months…. Save your money. It’s not worth the hassle. .. and if your a sonic ice chewer… it’s not the same .. not bad .. but not the same…. Major disappointment after spending $600 for it to have so many problems … doesn’t seem like it should be that complex of a machine. Major let down …

    So far, excellent product. Bought this for the wife who would go to Sonic every week for their ice. No more. This product delivers. Easy to set up and use. I use the ice in my own cups and the ice lasts all day. It is more of a luxury item, based on price, but so far, I am completely satisfied. Come back to me after a year or two in use and we'll see how it held up.

    If you want the best soft ice like the restaurants, this is definitely the ice maker to get. So easy fill and clean. It makes ice within 15 minutes and refills as you use it.

    The thing is amazing while it works! It's loud but not too loud and makes awesome ice. Problem is, it doesn't last long. Ours worked great for 8 months and then stopped making ice. Working on getting it replaced, but for what it costs you would think the reliability would be better on it. If you do get one I would get the extra warranty on it.
