    This ice machine makes the most delicious ice cubes. It took a little tike to hook up to WiFi but I can now turn it on with my phone. Makes a great addition if your fridge ice machine is small and you have friends over for drinks. We put this is our bonus room for guests when we watch sporting events/movies.

    Since my refrigerator with the ice maker has passed the point of no repair, the main refrig doesn’t make enough ice for the family. Never enough ice in my house, This one works great and have ice when I need it. It’ll eventually sit on my bar in my man cave after I replace the main refrigerator. I’d buy it again

    After having a cheaper countertop ice machine, this is a significant upgrade! Much quieter, and the nugget ice is identical to what you might get at a restaurant or fast food (think Sonic).

    Best little ice machine EVER! Don’t let the price scare you. Even though it is pricey, it is well worth it! This thing makes ALOT of ice. Nice tiny nugget size ice. The kind you get a QT. It has a refillable water tank or you can connect the hose to your water line. So, what are you waiting for? Go get one!

    Great solution for ice, our fridge ice maker (Samsung) stopped working and we needed a solution. This machine is quiet, efficient, and the ice is great.

    Best ice maker and best ice bit if you let it run out of water the pump might go out after several times trying to run water or it gets moldy often

    This is the loudest kitchen appliance you will ever have. If wherever you are putting this in your house is close to your bed, don not buy it. It makes a loud circulating humming noise constantly and then you can hear the ice drop into the bin periodically. It will keep you awake at night. We purchased sound proofing, similar to what they use in music studios, to go in the area where we have our machine. It helps, but still really loud. We do like the ice it provides, but with the high price and the noise, we don't think it is worth it.

    The best countertop ice maker. It makes tremendous tasting ice and it makes it pretty quickly. About a pound an hour and the size and softness of the ice is just like you would get at a restaurant or gas station with nugget ice. My wife is going to end up needing dentures soon going through the amount she chews :)

    This nugget ice maker is fantastic! It took a couple of days to get in the groove, but it makes great ice, lots of it, and is very quiet. I had a few questions about the instructions, and the company was very responsive to me to get them answered. I would recommend this machine to anyone!

    I purchased this icemaker and paid quite a bit for the nugget ice. We just found that it stopped working after only one month. Taking it back tomorrow. But loved it while it worked.

    Excellent product! Because of how hard the water is in my area, it does require frequent sanitizing and descaling. Other then that, I am real happy with this Ice Maker.

    Ice maker will make a horrid squealing sound throughout the making process. We have followed the protocol for cleaning, descaling and more and it continues to perform with issues. While the ice it makes is nice, and the unit looks nice, the level of maintenance and care required in addition to the fact it continues to have problems is causing regret for this purchase. And we are beginning to experience shared issues with customer service, which is frustrating. Hoping the manufacturer steps up and replaces or refunds us for the defective unit. There is no reasonable explanation for the issues we are having. By reading the reviews on GE's website, it is clear this is a known issue and I don't see any evidence they are willing to accept responsibility. Fingers crossed. But I do not recommend this unit. Buyers beware.

    This ice machine is everything I hoped for. It sits on my countertop. Produces an abundance of “good” ice. Is quiet. I am very pleased. Set up takes a little while with flushing the lines and clearing anything that could contaminate. After that is done, it’s amazing. Well worth the money if you are an ice snob like myself.

    Ice maker was super easy to set up. Makes ice fairly quickly, just leaks a lot of water when you pull the ice bucket out.
