    I love this ice maker. It makes the best chewable nugget ice out there. But keep in mind it comes at a price, be prepared for routine cleaning of your machine to keep it performing at its peak. To me it’s worth the time and effort because I like to eat a lot of ice. This is my second GE Opal and I highly recommend it!

    I think this is the fourth opel ice maker I’ve had in the past three years. If it wasn’t for Best Buy’s protection plan, I’d buy something else. The last two squealed terribly bad. And now this one needs to be sanitized every five days; which seems ridiculous. I spend more time sanitizing the ice make than i do using it. I think it’s time for me to move on from this very expensive ice maker and find something of higher quality. Very disappointed in the product, extremely satisfied with Best Buy’s service.

      We're sorry to hear that you've not had the best experience with your Opal Ice Maker. Descaling and sanitizing will be dependent on the hardness of your water in your area. It is recommended that these be done once a week. This is considered normal. We'll share your feedback with our team for future consideration. -Kacie@GEAppliances GE_Appliances
