Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Opal 2.0 ice maker, particularly the excellent ice quality and ease of use. The side tank and its convenient size for countertop placement are also well-received. However, some customers have concerns regarding the noise level and long-term reliability, while others feel the cleaning process is a bit lengthy.

    Overall not a bad machine - a bit pricey for what it does - can't get app to connect - instructions / features hard to figure out - & the question "would I recommend this to a friend?" I checked yes - but it all depends on what they were trying to accomplish!

    We got ours for a steal, and we absolutely love it. The smart updates are a bonus, but not necessary to enjoy it. Cleaning is a breeze as well

    Don't waste your money on this lasted 1 year! Followed all the instructions exactly, cleaned it when needed. The tank just stopped working all together 6 months ago then 6 months later the entire thing broke. I wanted this for a long time and finally decided to get it but for this kind of money needs to be WAY better. I regret purchasing.

    I love this ice machine. Unfortunately it is the second one that I purchased because I didn't take good care of the first one. Make sure you clean and sanitize it as directed. It will last longer!

      We're happy to hear that you love your machine! Cleaning is important to keep it running as it should. We recommend cleaning/sanitizing your Opal once per week. We're confident that your second one will last longer and serve you well!- Kianna@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

    It does a good job on the ice but it now makes continuous squealing noises. We only use highly filtrated water. Had for less than a year

    I had read the previous reviews and purchased this ice maker 2 weeks ago. I turn it on in the morning and off at night so that I don't burn out the motor. So far so good.

    Great product and quality. It does what it’s suppose to do but less than a year of use it starts to make annoying loud and weird screeching noises.
