No customer service, GE's warranty is a joke
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Please do not waste you money...this product works for about 4-5 months, and then no service help, the warranty is a joke, we submitted, photos, video and everything they requested and GE has ghosted us, and although we loved the ice working flawless for 4 months ( and we followed all the cleaning advice) it locks up and freezes up and will not make ice. Please find another this was way too much money or the results

Disappointing product
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was great when it worked. Had it for about 15 months and it stopped working. Performed regular cleanings as directed. Tried recommended cleaning, maintenance videos and still does not work. Very disappointed in product. Be ready to spend $650 every 12-18 months if you want to have a working product

Posted .We can understand your disappointment when your icemaker stops working. We would like to help! If the water well is filled to the upper fill line and no ice is being produced, please perform this simple test: 1. Please start the Opal and switch to cleaning mode. Don't forget to detach the side tank. 2. Remove the screen/filter at the bottom corner of the reservoir, exposing the small white rubber inlet used for water circulation. 3. Make certain that the Opal is not connected to the phone app and that the water well is filled to the upper fill line with distilled water. 4. Remove the ice bin and press the button to see if the Opal pumps water. This could take up to 5 minutes to start. 5. Plug the small inlet with your finger for 10-15 seconds to create a vacuum within the pump/circulation system. 6. Release the plug and wait a minute or until you see water movement. 7. If you do not see a change, you may want to repeat these steps a couple of times. Note: If you see water movement, please switch to ice mode and run for 30 minutes. **You may also need to prime your pump so try using a Turkey Baster/Injector and gently fill the hose that doesn't go to the side tank with water, and then restart the machine. If you continue to have issues, please reach out to our Opal team at 1-866-907-6718, M-F 8:00-8:00 EST.
