    We entertain a lot and our friends and family are super excited about this when they come over. Great build quality, very sleek looking as well. It’s expensive but if you entertain a lot it’s well worth it!

    This is 2nd Opal 2.0 ice maker after my first one died in less than a year. Thank goodness BESTBUY let me exchange it at the store. Don't get me wrong, i would not have gotten another one if i didn't like it. The Opal is probably the best counter top portable ice maker around, but saying this, they are not great by any means, not yet anyway. The design is beautiful, looks really nice on the counter top. It makes soft pellet ice fairly quickly. The downside is that it does need to be cleaned quite often, probably every 2 weeks, because it does get nasty pretty quick. Also, when the machine goes into defrosting mode, the machine starts to scream and can get very, very loud. If you do a cleaning, this will normality quiet the machine down. It's not difficult to clean, but it's not that easy either. It gets easier to do the more you do it.

    The Opal ice machine has truly exceeded my expectations. Its compact design fits perfectly in my kitchen, and the nugget ice it produces is a game-changer. The convenience of having restaurant-quality ice at home is unmatched, making every drink a refreshing experience. The user-friendly controls and quiet operation add to its appeal, making it a must-have appliance for anyone who enjoys high-quality ice.
