    Does the Job at a $$$

    Very expensive and quite heavy to move around the counter. If you like nugget ice this will fit the bill. I am using Primo bottled water out of a machine (RO), so hopefully the required maintenance will not be as gruesome as others have noted. I do like iced coffee in the warm months and nugget ice is not appropriate. Melts instantly. Only been used about a dozen times, but so far so good. I would reconsider spending the $$$.

    I have done a lot of research on this particular ice maker snd decided to purchase it on a whim. I have yet to regret that decision.

    This isnt really a review, nobody ever wins the $400 its just a ploy to get good reviews on their items so people will buy them more

    The upgrades are nice, but there's a glitch with the software stating I need to descale it after 3 days. Then whenever you do have to descale it..you have to let it sit for 18 hours! You also have the choice of placing a filter inside which is an extra cost. Do I recommend it.. kinda?

    Incredible ice, chewable, fast to fill. Supported a 15 person party at my house with no issue. Pretty loud. Timer and wifi is magical! We wake up to perfect iced coffee ice.

    Works great but it’s a bit temperamental and by this is the line which pulls from the reservoir. If it’s not lying flat, it will get air locked and water will not flow to ice maker internal reservoir. Also was took by Best Buy this ice maker would make three different size ice cubes but it does not do so. Only the so called sonic ice.

    I love this ice maker… it was the only thing I wanted for my birthday. It’s the good ice for sure. I only use geyser spring water and the ice OMG… taste so good. It’s worth the money. Best investment thus far. I would say the cleaning is somewhat time consuming but I haven’t done my first deep clean or scale clean since I’ve only had it for a month. I would recommend this product.

    I am extremely pleased with this ice maker. It produces consistently perfect ice every time, and it has proven to be well worth the investment. The included metal ice scoop, along with the convenient side attachment, is a thoughtful addition—no more searching for the scoop, as it now hangs neatly in plain view. Overall, an excellent product. All I can say is: ICE, ICE, BABY!

    One of our basic must have appliances now. No need for freezer icemaker esp thru the door which always has problems. Also that you don't have to collect and move the ice out like other portable ice makers. Had first model for 2 1_/2 years. Replaced after first one died Be sure to buy B Buy warranty.

    Perfect Nugget Ice

    Love it so far. Makes great ice, easy to use, and the black color actually hides well in the corner of the countertop, so it is not an eyesore (which was an initial concern when we bought it). Recommend using distilled water for crystal clear nuggets and minimum mineral scaling build up

    It functions well, with the exception of periodically it makes the "whining" noise. Based on research this ice maker makes that noise when the ice gets jammed up in the despenser. This would be the second one that I'm going to take back, due I can't take the whining noise and having to shut it off so the ice can defrost and turning it back on.

    It's the best ice ever! The only con would be that there is a lot of cleaning maintenance with sanitizing and descaling, which is needed for the machine's longevity.

    The GE Profile Opal 2.0 Ultra Nugget Ice Maker works well and produces nugget ice in a reasonable time frame. The key is to start the ice maker about an hour before to allow for production.

    works good but it seems like every week it needs to be sanitized which can get to be a little annoying but it's nice to have ice when you need it I don't know though

    I love this ice maker the only problem is, even if you clean it on the regular, after several months it starts to moan. The new version has a filter but you have to replace it every few months

    Great little ice maker. I love the nugget ice. Makes ice quickly. There is regular maintenance but very easy to do and it keeps the ice tasting fresh. I always use distilled water in the ice maker. The app keeps you up on the maintenance which is convenient. I highly recommend this nugget ice maker.

    I have had to return two of these a year apart. I am not sure what is malfunctioning but up until then they were great. If you purchase I would most definitely get the warranty.
