Amazing , Great Quality and Useful
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love it!!! I saw this product over social media for a while and I was always tempted to buy it, but thought it was a little pricey. After getting it I would say it’s totally worth the money. I have had for like 2 months now, and have used it every single day.

ICE ICE BABY
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

I dont think there is anything better that i could have gotten her. She loves crushed ice from the store and this ice maker is as close as youll get. She absolutely loves it.

Ice machine review
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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 is the ONE
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I looked at several different ones and this one is worth the price. It paid off so quickly in return. Still surprises me how much ice this makes per full reservoir.

Great Icemaker!!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Way better than the original Firstbuild!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ice machine is a dream come true. It doesn't leak. It has an easy keep full method, and the ice is wonderful! It is quiet and can keep up with my husband who is an ice junky. It is so much better than the original firstbuild model we had--it did last over 4 years even with its design flaws--I am hoping this pretty model lasts just as long.

Awesome Ice Maker
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife has been wanting a nugget ice maker forever. We finally got the GE Opal and it is a beast, constant ice all the time. We are constantly using it and we are never out of ice.

Not Worth The Cost
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It makes ice very slowly, not enough to keep up with my family’s needs. The reservoir doesn’t work great even though I followed all instructions and set it up as directed. Also, it makes a TERRIBLE sound that is very loud. It’s so loud my dog barks at it angrily as if it’s the vacuum. The nugget ice is nice, and I like the UV cleaning button but it is no where worth the price. I had an ice machine prior to this that I got off Amazon for $100 and I would probably just buy that one again if I had the option. Due to the price I am now stuck with this one for a while.

Ice machine
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .We’re so glad you’re overall happy with your Opal, but we do hate to hear you have some concerns regarding the noise level. We do expect the Opal to make some sounds as it operates, and hard surfaces like the walls, countertops and floor may amplify the sounds. If it may be helpful, we have more information regarding what noises the unit may make on page 13 of the manual; if you’d like to view that manual, you can do so on our GE Appliances website when you look up the model number and go to the product page. We’re confident your Opal will work well for a long time to come!

Love
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my ice machine! makes ice quickly. i think the tank (where the ice is kept) may need to stay colder. i think overnight it melts a little because when i wake up it is making ice when we have not used any ice. But other than that i love my ice machine!!
