Customers are saying

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.

    Love this ice maker. It makes ice quickly as advertised. Make sure you by the recommended water filter. This ice make does not come with a filter.

    Pricey, but falls into the category of "buy the best you can afford, it's cheaper in the end". Well made and a good engineering concept. To us it is much better than an in door icebox ice maker.

    So far the device has been excellent. It makes a little metallic noise every now and again but it always stops after a few minutes. I believe something might be loose on it as you can also sit something on it to make it stop.

    Worked great and loved it for 5 months. Then it stopped working. I know can't get any ice at all. Very disappointed after spending over 500 dollars that it only worked for 5 months.

    Makes the quickest and cutest little ice nuggets. You need this in your life. It does melt a little quicker than regular ice. The ice machine is quick, as soon as you get ice it makes it starts making more.

    Great machine. We had the first version which was bigger, heavier, and not as efficient at producing ice. This one is a massive improvement.

    Bought this for the gf as she is an avid ice chewer and I wanted to give the freezer maker a break. The softer pellets are much easier on the teeth. I only wish I would've gotten the side tank right away, as constantly removing the bucket to fill becomes a nuisance.

    Absolutely love this ice machine! The only reason for the 4 stars is that it requires more maintenance than I do! Clean me and descale me! But it does satisfy my craving for ice since I obviously lack iron!

    This ice maker is everything that we had imagined it would be! It makes ice like crazy! Keeps up with our everyday use with a household of 4 and has kept up with the demand with numerous guests over for a party. Well worth it for the good ice!

    This was my second Opal machine. This model didn't have the filter and was even worse for maintenance and cleaning.

    I really like the small nugget ice which does clump up in drinks. The available ice crunch is a satisfying option...8

    I was replacing the original Opal ice machine. This is exactly like the opal but maybe a little prettier for the countertop. Works great but I gave 4 stars Because the price could be a bit lower, IMO
