    Best ice machine ever. When family members come over to visit they always say yes to a glass of ice tea because they want the ice. Sometimes I fill a cup full of ice and add Tajin, it makes a great snack. You won’t regret the purchase.

    Best ice maker l have ever owned. Easy to operate,easy to clean. Just buy the filter for the machine and if you have hard water install a water filter on your sink and you are good to go. I never had a water filter, but now l do l would not be without it. Helps keep your machine cleaner. Wonderful product this ice machine is.

    This creates very nice ice. The cleaning process is definitely a project. I think if it was a closed system and had ice dispensing instead of everyone scooping it would be more hygienic.

    Loved it until it was a few years old and started making loud noise. By I think as long as the warranty is purchased you’ll be ok. I can’t see myself NOT having this as a part of my kitchen

    This ice maker is awesome. Makes great ice for my drinks, its fast, easy to use. I will never use the ice maker in the Refer again. Don't try to make extra an freeze it, turns into a solid block. Use one gallon bottled water, it tastes great. Love this machine.

    We've had this for about a month and have been super happy with it so far. We clean it once a week as recommended and it hasn't been too cumbersome. The ice is made quickly and just like the nugget ice at some of the fast food chains. We're a family of four and it's able to keep up with no issues, even when we've had others over. I hightly recommend

    Overall a Trusty Workhorse

    While this countertop icemaker churns out excellent chewable ice nuggets and operates like a champ, its longevity leaves something to be desired. I'm on my third unit in just three years. To make matters more challenging, the warranty process was a hassle, with two replacement units arriving either damaged or unclean. It's evident the manufacturer has some kinks to iron out. Despite these hurdles, I still believe in the product. It's a trusty workhorse, but anticipate potential issues after a year of use.

    We’ve had this unit for 2 years and it has paid for itself in spades. I used to have to run to the store and grab bags of ice for the wife and this has eliminated that. It it makes the “rabbit poop” ice everyone loves!

    The ice machine works well. But the customer service was below poor. The first person I spoke to was so rude. If it was not that I was buying and picking this up for someone else I would not have bought it from Best Buy. I had not been to a best buy in over 10 years. I will not be returning.

    It works. A little squealy sometimes, but we keep it back in the laundry room so we don't notice it much. I think 4.28 stars would be more appropriate, but it wasn't an option.

    Love this ice maker!! Everyone that comes to our house always comments about our “sonic” ice and asks where we purchased it from. The setup was super easy and it’s relatively easy to clean( diluted bleach wash). I highly recommend the GE Opel 2.0. I did purchase an extended warranty. Although our machine arrived dented CS replaced it right away.
