    We love this ice. I was skeptical at first on how often I'd have to fill the water but it lasts even when we don't use as much ice. It works great!

    I’ve had the GE Opal 2.0 ice maker for less than 6 months, and it has completely stopped working. I followed all the recommended troubleshooting steps — cleaning, resetting, unplugging, you name it. Nothing worked. The worst part? GE customer service has been completely unhelpful. They clearly know this is a common issue but refuse to offer a replacement or real solution. For something this expensive, you'd expect some accountability. Instead, I’m stuck with an overpriced machine that makes zero ice and a support team that won’t support. Extremely disappointed. Don’t waste your time or money.

    Works really great. Setup was easy. Really love the ice it makes. Can even take ice out and store in freezer when having a lot of guest. It breaks up easy after being in freezer.

    This is my second one. Moved the older one upstairs to gameroom and put the new 2.0 model in my utility room. Very quiet and makes ice fast. Worth the price to me!

    It does what it says…I wish it would keep ice cold but doesn’t. The ice will melt and keep the ice reservoir full…kind of a back up system or way for machine to recycle the water to keep making ice…. so I scoop top 2 layers of ice only that seems dryer…. Put in zip lox bags and store in freezer…then I don’t use it until I need to make more.

    I like it other than sometimes it gets clogged up and I have cleaned it just like it says and still has buildup inside , called customer service and they suggested I clean it again and wait 48 hours , done that and still not working properly, maybe I just got a bad one

    I want to love this so much. The ice is perfect and produced quickly. But those people who say it isn't as loud as others claim should make an appointment with an audiologist or have their hearing aids turned down. This thing is super loud and runs frequently. We're seriously considering a return because of this.
