GE Profile Opal 2.0 Nugget Ice Maker

I love the ice it makes, and it takes about 2 hours or so to make a good amount of ice. The ice maker is for a family of 2, plenty of ice and never ran out of ice between 2 people, even when we use large 40oz containers. There are a few flaws, cleaning is not that easy. I wish the cleaning is easier or have less things to clean. The second is, you can't connect a water line to this. For something that I need to refill twice a week, I'm willing to split off the fridge line to this ice maker. Especially, I don't use the fridge to make ice any more. The noise is a bit annoying if you're in the same room or the next. But it's fine. Last gripe about this, water drips once you open door to get ice out. The tray it comes with does catches it. With the flaws, it's still a very good ice maker. One thing you should consider is to use filtered water and not use tap water. Tap water (depending where you live), it could make you clean this more often. Leaving hard water in the lines are very hard to clean. I don't use the GE filter because it didn't seem like it would be as good as my own water filter. The price is a bit high for a "ice maker" but if you like the nugget ice, or like chomping on ice and you got the money for it. This one is legit.

Great ice maker easy to assemble, there's a little low level noise while it's maker ice but not a big deal

Really nice machine super convenient makes ice Really fast

Product is expensive and doesn't last long. Ice is good...when it works.

Perfect modern design! We decided to upgrade from our old ice maker and could not be happier with the decision! The modern design goes perfectly with our newly upgraded kitchen. The ice bin capacity lasts when hosting guests, you can barely hear the unit when ice is being made and the cleaning/draining functionality is very user friendly!

We’ve had the ice maker 1 month now and so far it’s been great. It is wonderful having a constant supply of ice, whereas or refrigerator with 2 ice makers just couldn’t keep up. It was easy to set up out of the box. The only thing of concern is that the ice maker is not entirely quiet all the time, but one gets used to it over time. Overall, a great addition to our kitchen.

This is my third opal ice maker. I love these things! They typically have a set lifespan around 2-4 years in my experience. Regardless, these machines make the best ice! Recommend using distilled water to increase its life expectancy and to ensure cleaning of the machine is completed regularly. Makes enough ice for a family of 8. Easy set up and install. Fits perfectly under our kitchen cabinets. Runs quietly.

We are very satisfied with our nugget ice maker. It was easy to setup, makes a batch of ice quickly and very quiet. Perfect size to fit our space.

Al principio estaba súper contenta pero derepente dejaba de hacer hielo como que se quedaba en agua comprimido

I’ve had the opal 2.0 setup for about 2 weeks now and I have no complaints. It’s been easy to use. It’s relatively quiet. The side tank is really nice to have too. It’s been producing ice like a champ. I love having a full tank of ice available to me 24/7.

Bought it for our place at the lake. We have used once and it produced ice quickly. It was very good nugget ice. We expect for it to be used a lot this Summer.

I bought two , one reconditioned and leaked water from the bottom so I sent back. Decided to get a new one and it would ran for about 15 minutes then start squealing very loud. Sent back and gave up on getting one.

Due to the fact that everyone prefers the soft nugget ice; We unashamedly now have two of the Opal’s in our home kitchen… solid units two things that I am comment and or question?? Is 1) how do you install the included nylon block that I assume is a holding area/unit for the provided plastic scoop? 2) perhaps a some sort of testing strips should be included so you will know you own water quality for scaling and hardness… really ia a great machine and appreciate that the led lighting has a switch…

Love the ice, it is quick and tastes great. HATE the noise, it is so loud, consistently. She has been named Myrtle. This is our second Opal. We hoped the noise was just a bad machine, but the second one is just as bad as the first.

This thing makes ice fast, and it is good ice. I have tried other brands, but nothing compares. Has Wi-Fi, so you can schedule it to come on in the morning and before you get home from work. Keeps up with lots of people, so it is also good for parties. It is quite large so get ready for it to take up counter space, and it is heavy. The cleaning routine is not hard but you need to move it near a sink to drain it. The nose could be quieter but it is not annoying.

Absolutely love this ice maker!! The looks of it and the ease of setting everything up, I'm so glad I made this purchase.

The first one broke after 9-months. GE replaced it and now the second one is broken. Same issue as the first one. Indicator light says Add Water and it won't make ice even though the water bin is full. Piece of junk for the price point.

Quick set up and start up to producing ice. So far we love this thing!

Makes ice fast, working as advertised. Ni Noise is insignificant.

It doesn’t make ice. Everything on the machine runs, just doesn’t make the ice.
