Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Opal 2.0's excellent ice quality and overall performance, frequently praising its ease of use and attractive design. However, some users find the machine noisy and require regular maintenance, including filter replacements and descaling. The water tank capacity and the need for frequent sanitization are also points of concern for some customers. While the compact size is a plus for many, others find the weight to be a significant drawback.

    Good in the beginning, but getting error messages to fill water when it is full. Ice pellets are small. Probably going to return it.

    GE seems to have finally rethought this product. It is louder than previous models but so far their changes have been good.
