Customer Ratings & Reviews

You know you've reached the climax of adulthood when you get excited about an ice maker. If you want tasty nugget / pearl ice at an affordable price, this is the machine for you. Don't accidently get the Opal 1, it is Opal 2 or nothing. I could make some minor design improvements, but overall it is the best machine at the best price for my budding family's needs. Why don't they put these types of machines in fridges already? YOLO

Love it! I love this kind of ice!! It fits nicely on my countertop.

Excellent choice for the good ice. Purchased because built in fridge ice maker broke. Glad this choice was made over the built in. Excellent ice, quiet operation, can be monitored with app on cell phone.

Fantastic ice maker. A little slower and louder than I'd like, but man, that nugget ice is great.

This is an awesome product!! I am In love with it!!! Exceeded my expectations!! Easy to set up and use. I run it once a week and bag quart ziplocs of ice for the other days. If you lie them flat they stack nicely in the freezer and break apart easily.

Amazing product that allows you to have a consistent amount of ice chips. I just wish it didn’t make as much noise for how expensive it is.

Can't believe how much I love this over priced appliance. The ice is great for beverages and making smoothies. I really helps me increase my water intake. When recipes call for cooling down blanched vegetables or eggs, I now have a full supply of ice in order to do the task.

Yes, this thing is pricey but it gets used more than any other appliance we own. It makes ice pretty fast and when it melts it cycles it back through for more ice, which is like Sonic ice only without the highschool kid attitude. We bought a filter for it that is supposed to last 6 months, didn't make it 45 days so maybe don't get that.

love this item!! my fridge stopped making ice. i’ve had this product for a while and i use it everyday!

We love the GE OPAL Ice Makers but they tend to break after a few years. Recommed you putchase the Geek Squad 4 Year protection as you will likely need it. This one lasted two years and was just replaced with the newer model,

The ice is great but the cleaning process takes awhile!

Setup including cleaning process was pretty simple and straight forward. Just be aware that the supply hose from the reservoir to the actual ice maker needs some space. The product delivers exactly what it promises. The only deduction is for the noise. While not “loud” it’s noticeable. If they can solve that, this will be a five star

I was hesitant after reading some of the reviews but I’m glad I went ahead and purchased this ice maker. It isn’t as loud as people were saying. It sounds the same as the oven running and is quieter than the dishwasher. Started making ice in 20 min and bin was full in like as hour. The price was high so I’m hoping it lasts!

I really like my opal 2.0. I use this daily. Hardest part was cleaning the unit. I have heard of others running into problems but i haven't had any issues. I refill my unit with water from my brita water jug. Works great.

Love this ice machine a lot. It’s like having Sonic ice at home. It is important to use filtered water for the reservoir bc over time hard water build up causes it to make ice very loudly. I recommend the protection plan as I had to use it once. It is very nice to fill reservoir and come back and ice is ready all the time.

This ice maker is the greatest. Makes ice pretty quickly and up to 38lbs a day. I put it in bags and freeze it so there is always done in hand.

This GE nugget ice maker is very simple to use and it's very fast making ice.

Love the uce it IS the GOOD ice. Bit for 600.00 this thing should not leak water out of the drawer when you open it and the noise...oh no when it decrosts and screechea at you til you wanna leave the room!!!

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 machine. I have nothing but good things to say. I recommend it to everyone i know. I even have family who ask for a cup of ice before i come over.
