Ice machine

The best purchase I have made as an adult!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely worth every penny! I love my ice machine I use it nonstop! This is by far the best purchase I have made as an adult and have no regrets or buyers remorse lol. Best Buy always had sales and they price match so you can get them at an amazing price with the protection plan which I defiantly recommend by the way! And still pay less then full price if you price match other retailers. That is why Best Buy is AMAZING!

Ice eater
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first it wouldnt have been 5 stars because the hose had a cut in it and water was everywhere. The whole machine was replaced and i got another brand new one within a few days. Love my ice machine. I eat ice alot and i guess companies water filter is not as clean as the water i put in my machine because it always made me sick but my ice i can eat all day.

Opal Ice Maker GE 2.0
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don’t like reviewing electronics until at minimum of the first year… in this case this ice maker failed at the 2year mark.. of course out of warranty and in this item I didn’t purchase the extended warranty as I signed up for the Best Buy program at a later date. Been difficult to get repaired have calls into several repair companies including GE waiting to here back. Priced too high for only two years of use.

Sonic Ice

Best ice machine ever!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love, love, love this ice machine. It took a little time (40 mins) for the first time to make the nuggets. After the first time it has been really fast at making ice. It makes ice like Sonic the fast food place, so if you enjoy Sonics Ice then you will definitely enjoy this machine. Pricey, but worth it.

Nugget ice SZN
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never knew I needed this machine so much! We had a couple ice trays in the freezer that would turn into chaos whenever we had friends over, this high efficient ice maker keeps the party going! Pretty quiet for how fast it works, we upgraded to a stainless steel scooper which I highly recommend, we love that soft chewable nugget ice!

Ice is as it is advertised
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the ice. The cleaning process is easy and because the ice machine tells you when it needs clean you don't have to wonder when to clean. I do wish it was made where I could put a glass under and it would fill. I don't use the side tank because it takes up too much room on the counter.

Not as reliable as we hoped but makes great ice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We love this machine and the ice that it makes. This is our 2nd Opal, after our first one died at 8 years old. We got it with the Geek Squad protection plan because of this. Boy, have we needed it. Our second one died and was replaced by GE after owning it 10 months; this one (number 3) is dead after 13 months. If we could get one like our first one, that would be great! Again, when it’s working, it makes the best ice
