    So far, it's been great. (Only)One complaint is it's a little noisy when the tv is off, or at night when there are no outdoor sounds.

    Perfect Nugget Ice

    Owned the original Opal before they were GE branded and it was great, but there were some design flaws and eventually descaling with vinegar no longer worked. Bought this new version and so far it seems easier to clean, is quieter, and havent noticed any mold/slime build up. Been cleaning once a month with vinegar.
