    if i could ask for anything, it is for the tray to hold the ice a bit cooler. it is sort of flimsy and ice melts a bit quick.

    Bought this for my wife. She absolutely loves this ice machine. If our house ever caught on fire, I am sure you would see her run out of the house with this in her arms!

    We recently purchased this ice machine for our break room. Daily I need ot restart the ice machine, unplug it, then plug it back in and drain the reservoir at least 2 time before it will start making ice. Once it works it works, but be prepared to spend at least 20-30 minutes of your day babysitting it to make sure it starts working.

    Worst consumer product design of the last decade

    I really wanted to like this. It has a sleek look that blends in with other modern consumer appliances. But, as others have stated the problems started around week 2 and have just continued to get worse. First its the screeching while making ice, then it doesnt sufficiently pump water from the reserve tank, then it stops realizing that the tank is out of water and the grears start grinding and making the worst noise you can imagine from an appliance, then to top it off, they have used some sort of plug from the 1950s that isn’t ergonomically designed and nearly requires pliers to take out of the outlet. Thats quite a problem when the machine has to be unplugged to avoid blood-curdling noise of mechanical death. This was a great concept but, and this comes from someone who works in the development of consumer products, this was an absolute DESIGN FAIL from top to bottom.

    I bought this for my second house that I only go to on the weekends so I really like the Wi-Fi programmable feature. I only program it to run just before I get there so I have ice when I arrive.

    So happy with this purchase. Super easy to use and produces a great product. I love the app feature. If I had a complaint it would be that there isn’t a scoop holder. But I really love this item.

      Hi - Thank you for reaching out to us. Be sure you have 3" air clearance on all sides and back of the ice maker. Also, clean the side vents on the body of the ice maker using a hand vacuum or the attachments on your vacuum cleaner. If you continue to have difficulty please call Opal Support at 1-800-432-2737 for further assistance. Kind regards - Vikki@GEAppliances GE_Appliances
