5.0 out of 5 stars This thing is AWESOME!

At first, I was skeptical about getting this for my wife as a birthday gift because of the price - I wondered if it was really worth it. Now that we've had it for almost a year, I can tell you it is DEFINITELY worth it! This ice maker is so amazing! It actually promotes hydration - you WANT to drink more water because you just love the ice! I was impressed at how fast the ice starts being made after turning it on. It does make a slight humming noise but it's at such a low decibel level so it's barely noticeable.

You do have to take good care of it though. Read the cleaning instructions and take the time to clean it on a regular basis. But do NOT try to open the top of the unit. It's very difficult to pry open and it's not worth the trouble. Just use the two cleaning methods that are mentioned in the manual... and you'll have great tasting ice in no time.

Our friends and family love when we have this ice ready when they come over! It's like getting Chick-Fil-A ice for free!

1.0 out of 5 stars Item has started squeaking after only 6 months
Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2023
This product seems great, love the type of ice, but the issue is the squeaking. After only 6 months use it has starting squeaking constantly and nothing we do will get it to stop. The item has been taken care of and cleaned. If this is a flaw, it needs to be addressed. Nothing from the company.
Update: item had to be returned, wasn’t even a year old, due to not producing ice. Finally got ahold of the company and got a replacement. The replacement however was only working properly for maybe two months, periodically stop making ice and make loud grinding noise. The company stated the warranty is void after the initial replacement. Sad that companies don’t stand behind their products, do not buy, too over priced for a product that can’t even last a year.
Latest update: the ice maker was received Nov of 2023, it didn’t even last 6 months, by January of 2024 was already making weird noises and not making ice. It was completely dead by February. Of course once they replaced it the warranty no longer exists & no option of paying for a new one. This company doesn’t back their product at at, worst appliance purchase I’ve ever made, what a waste.

One of the best purchases ever!
We only use distilled water and we have put at least 70 gallons of it thru this wonderful machine.
It has worked flawlessly for a year.
There are 6 girls in the house from age 8 to 58 and each one of them use this ice daily to refill their water bottles (we live near Tucson Arizona). The baby loves out to!
They all love the ice and we have never run out. We must refill the side tank every other day or so and it's totally worth it.
The "cleaning" light has been flashing for a few months- I don't know what that means but I don't really care as long as it keeps churning out fantastic ice.
And it always looks great- very classy.
When the teenage girls have sleepovers, they push the machine to it's limits but it never lets them down.
Don't waste your money on a cheaper option (including buying this one as a return- they are nasty)- I have tried 2 other cheaper counter top options that don't even compare to this one.
I was even tempted to buy the big, built in unit but, after buying this, I see it totally wasn't necessary.
Couldn't be happier with this purchase!

4.0 out of 5 stars Yes, there can be issues, but the ice is spectacular
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2023
The media could not be loaded.
Just received it today so I can't comment on longevity. Otherwise, it was simple to setup, run the cleaning cycle and get my first batch of ice.

I am an "ice snob" so I'm very particular about my ice. I was buying a bag every day from Sonic. I had figured out optimum time to get fresh ice from the top (which is cloudy and "soft") instead of ice that had been sitting there (that's clear and "icy"). I was worried this machine wouldn't make the SOFT ice. But it makes PERFECT, soft ice. So far, I couldn't be any happier.

Update: After less than 8 weeks (I've already descaled it twice) today it suddenly stopped working. The add water button was on, but the reservoir was full. After watching several YouTube videos I kept seeing that the pump wasn't priming and to place my finger over the hole in the reservoir. That did nothing. Also said to try squeezing some water into the hole. Well, that's a problem, because the space to put something in the hole is not large. So I did some research and found the perfect little squeeze bottles that you can even get here on Amazon (I happened to get my at my local Walmart). They are called Joie Condiment Mini Squeeze Bottles.

Additional Update: About a month ago I started to get the Add Water light even though I could see the water was actually being drawn out of the reservoir. If it turned the machine off and back on it would then make ice. This week even that stopped working and now the machines makes NO ice. Almost six months to the date I received it. So I have to return it and get a "new machine." I asked if it was actually new or refurbished and all I got was, it's being shipped from our warehouse. That doesn't answer the question. I figured out that based on how much ice I was buying from Sonic the Opal would pay for itself if it worked for at least 6 months, so I guess it was worth the purchase. It did make spectacular soft ice!

5.0 out of 5 stars What A Wonderful Little Appliance!
Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2024
The built-in ice makers that come with refrigerators are notoriously temperamental. Ours quits on its own for no reason whenever it feels like it. Its cube storage is small and it isn’t reliable. Last summer it went on strike for a week so I set up one of those $100 ice-bullet makers. It had to be tended like a fussy old aunt. With another summer in the near future, I decided to improve matters.
I bought this GE Opal 2.0 unit. I *love* it!
I especially like the fact that when the already-made ice begins to melt, the water is put back into the system to freeze again into new nuggets. It’s automatic and runs along without supervision as long as it has enough water to run an ice cycle. After a week, I also bought the available side tank. Now we’re really set for all the drinks, ice packs for sprains, and nugget crunching to come.
I high recommend this!
