    I’ve only had this ice maker about a month, but I really like it. The ice is even better than Sonic’s and it’s WiFi.

    The opal ice marker is a wonderful product. If it could only connect to a permanent water source.

    Best ice maker ever! It was easy to set up but it does take up a lot of counter space. It makes the best soft ice pellets and if you use a certain kind of bottle water, the ice is even softer. An ice chewers dream.

    Avoid GE Opal Ice Machine

    Do not buy this ice machine. Got it a few weeks ago and already having problems. We originally had the Opal original, which died after a year and a half. Love the ice it made so took a chance with the 2.0 model, hoping they had improved the design. This one, the 2.0, worked fine for a couple weeks, but now that we're a week out from the returnable date, it has begun making a terrible, groaning/screaming noise. We turned it off, gave it a few minutes, then turned it back on, seemed to run fine for a few minutes, then restarted with a really loud bang, like something was caught inside and hit the side of it. It's either really poorly designed or the manufacturing has been shoddy. I don't know, but I wouldn't buy another at this point. When it does work the ice is amazing, though. A shame, really.

    Great ice, easy setup, and like the wifi connectivity. Only downside is it is quite loud, luckily for us it is in our pantry so we can keep the door shut and not hear it.

    Had to returned the first one that was damaged, make sure to inspect the box and machine when you first get it. Cleaning can be a pain but it makes good ice!

    One of the most used daily appliance I have at my house. I never thought I would use ice daily when I only had the icemaker in the fridge. The ice produced is very premium and soft. My family loves it.

    The marketing material calls it a “beverage enhancer”. It actually unironically is lol. Great ice, been a month or so and still reliable. 10/10
