Customer Ratings & Reviews

Have had this ice maker for years and love the nugget ice. I have had no problems with it. I like it so much that I ended up buying a second one for my mom.

Works great! Easy to set up. Easy to clean. Totally worth it.

Delivers exactly what it advertises. Good, crunchy ice pellets. Great for all sorts of drinks. The kids are making "dirty sodas" and parents are using it daily for iced coffee. The side container is helpful, because it does go through water quickly. Not sure I'd pay full price, but with significant a Black Friday sale, the value was much better.

Love the color and the ice turns out great each time, I use this daily!!

Very easy to use clean and looks good on counter top

This is my 3rd GE Profile. Thank the heavens for the geek squad protection plans because i havent had one of these last over 3 years. That being said, they are better than the other ice makers on the market. I love ice, much like Sven, ice is my life. However, this new model produces more slush than ice. Its a difficult balance to have “soft” ice but also not have it instantly melt when you pour a drink. Last models have done a great job, but this one is just bad. If you pour a room temp drink into the “ice”, it nearly melts everything instanlty so you are left with a watered down drink. I know have to ensure i plan drinks well in advance so I get the satisfaction of a super cold drink that is still flavorful.

It makes fantastic ice… but it is wildly unusable. My first machine lasted 2 weeks before it started making noises like a demon being exorcized from a shrieking cat. It is so loud I can hear it FROM DOWN THE ROAD when I’m walking my dog. It’s a wonder my neighbors never made a noise complaint. I returned it and got a new one. The new one lasted an entire month before it started doing the same thing. If I didn’t live in an apartment, I’d just buy a new fridge with a good ice maker in it. If you own a home, honestly do that. Save yourself the trouble and your hearing.

Love the Ice, but you definitely have to keep up with the maintenance in order to keep the machine working properly.

Love that you can schedule when it turns on and off. We had the prior model and this model produces more crunchable ice. Very pleased with the purchase.

This is my third one. I always buy the protection plan for this type of appliance that has water flowing through it full time. They've made a lot of improvements. This one is much quieter. My first one failed most likely because of too much hard water scale build-up and I was seeing mold in the ice. The replacement had a new feature to light up and remind me when it needs to be cleaned and descaled. I was diligent about doing that often, but it developed an internal leak. This newest one lights up to remind me to descale it and lights up more often to remind me to sanitize it. The cleaning process has a quick clean for sanitization and long clean for descaling. I've owned other countertop ice makers in the past that were terrible. This GE Opal is the best, I highly recommend it for performance but also highly recommend you don't take this home without a protection plan. Both of mine lasted just over 2 years, and with all the improvements they've made on this one, you should get the 4 year plan.

Works great. Makes the ice really fast. Perfect little ice nuggets.

this is a great nugget ice machine, this is my 3rd one. the 1st 2 i bought where cheaper and just didn't work good. worth the money.

Purchased this opal ice maker about a month ago. I have been Extremely satisfied. Well worth the money.

I owned the first generation, 1.0, which kept breaking but made incredible ice. This new 2.0 also made ice fast and plenty of it, but it only lasted four months until the wailing from the machine started again. This machine seemed more robust in its build, but the engineers needed to fix the part that pushed the ice out. That's whats making the noise. I am so disappointed, as it works great when it works!

Best purchase! We kept running out of ice during our family gatherings. Since we picked the GE Profile Ice Maker, there has been no more issues with running out of ice. This ice maker makes perfect size nuggets and will always be full.

Love this ice maker. Sleek and elegant design. Quiet and ice is delicious.

Great icemaker for everyday use! Definitely couldn’t live without this in our lives!

It is quiet, works great, makes double the ice of the last machine that i had. Looks better. Side tank holds more water for less refilling.

So far its a great product. A little bit of noise.

So easy to use, so easy to clean, ice is the perfect crunch!
