    Save yourself a return trip to the store

    If I could give this zero stars I would. After reading mixed reviews for this item I pulled the trigger and purchased one of these units. Thank goodness for BestBuys 45 day return policy. The unit was a complete disappointment from day one. It is advertised that it will produce 1 pound/hour. This is a lie. It took about 24 hours to fill the 3 lb ice bin. The unit ran constantly and never would produce more than about 3 lbs every 24 hours. I figured the unit must be defective due to the lack of ice production and constantly going from “Making Ice” mode to “Defrost” mode. After about a week of listening to this thing constantly running and making a disappointing amount of ice I returned to the store and exchanged it. I do have to say thanks to the local BestBuy staff helping me exchange units. Once home I set up the new unit being sure to carefully follow the provided instructions. I went to bed that night with high expectations to wake up and find the 3 lb ice bin full of ice. Nope. Not even close. Just like the first unit I had the bin was less than 1/2 full after running over 10 hours. There was just enough ice to fill my mug before heading to work. Later that day I came home to find the ice maker less that half full again. Just enough to fill a single mug with ice for dinner. This half full, fill a mug, wait 12 hours to fill again then empty repeated for a month. I called GE told them the situation and that I was even using bottled water in the unit. They said making 1 lb of ice per hour is optimal for the unit and that it sounded like the unit was indeed working correctly. I finally got around to returning the second unit to the store a few days before the 45 day closing window ended. Again thanks to BestBuy for taking this piece of junk ice maker off of my hands. When I received the power bill for the full month that I had the GE Opal ice maker plugged in and running and it was a full 12 dollars higher than the previous and following months. After this experience I have to say it will be a cold day in …… before I purchase an appliance from GE. With a price of nearly 700$ I expected far far more than I got not once but TWICE.
