Quality ice maker!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love, love, love this ice maker! We love nugget ice at certain fast food restaurants. I don’t know why, but it just seems to make your soda taste so much more crisp! So, we were super excited to try out this new GE nugget ice maker. First of all, it ships perfectly. Nothing was damaged. Everything was packaged up carefully. Assembly was pretty easy. Just make sure to give everything a little wash and rinse before use. After being cleaned and set up, the machine begins to make ice almost instantaneously. This specific model has two reservoirs in which you can put water so you don’t have to constantly fill with water. There is one on the bottom and the additional side tank. This makes things a little easier. Ice is continuously made and doesn’t really ever run out. It is a heavy duty appliance but still fits nicely under my cabinets. The only small thing I would change is if there was a designated spot to put your ice scoop. Other than that, this machine is great. Oh, it it’s not loud at all! This is just a great nugget ice maker and a fun addition to our kitchen!

Registration on GE site Issues

This review is about registration of a product. It's too cumbersome and technology is glitchy. It required way too much of my time to register the product. I tried with my phone and never got confirmation using the QR code scan so I went to the trouble to set up an account online and register only to find out the product was already registered.

Crunchy ice nugget

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the crunchiness of the ice that this makes! It also didn't taste like tap water. Althought it is a bit on the heavy and bulkier side, and it took a while to make ice the first time but the noise level is low so it didn't bother me.

Love this ice maker!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ice maker is amazing! I absolutely love nugget ice, so this is a great addition to our home. The ice maker was incredibly easy to set up, and fits perfectly on the counter. After the cleaning cycle, it was good to go. It started making ice in about 10 minutes. It does make a running sound, but it’s not too loud. I have no complaints about this product! It’s wonderful!

Makes a lot of quality nugget ice, noisy and large

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cleaning cycle works well. Unfortunately it is quite loud, but you can turn it off whenever you need to. The nugget ice is really nice and works well for drinks. The machine is extremely large especially with the water tank add on and takes up a lot of counter space, but is a nice addition to the kitchen if you like nugget ice! So far we have not had any build up in the machine, and we have moderately hard water.

Fast, efficient, convenient, quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GE Profile Ice Maker is a fantastic addition to any kitchen. It produces clear, restaurant-quality ice quickly and efficiently. I love the sleek design, and it fits perfectly under the counter. The machine is easy to operate and maintain, and the ice cubes are consistently the right size and texture. It’s perfect for both everyday use and entertaining. Overall, a great investment for anyone who loves having ice readily available!

Ice ice baby!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t say enough great things about this I’ve maker. It has been used non stop for the last month. The ice tastes great. Easy set up. Is a little loud at times. But overall it’s very handy and we can’t get enough of it. The side tank is a great feature and lasts for days.

Easy to use, and a must-have for any kitchen or pa

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GE Opal Nugget Ice Maker has been a fantastic addition to our kitchen! It’s incredibly easy to set up and clean, and as long as you clean it weekly, the ice stays fresh and bacteria-free. It quickly goes from empty to full in just 3 hours. We use it daily.

GE Opal: Fast, crunchy ice from a sleek and elegan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the GE Opal ice maker for a few weeks now, and it’s quickly become a staple in my house. The crunchy ice it produces is fantastic- crunchy cubes that rival that of Sonic’s offering. One of the best things is how fast it gets started; ice begins coming out at around the 20-25 minute mark. Once this happens, you can clearly hear the ice being produced and extruded- it is a squeaking sound of sorts. The machine is still quite quiet however, which is a big bonus as some ice makers can be quite noisy. I also love that the ice stays frozen overnight. I can turn it off before bed and wake up to a fully stocked ice tray in the morning, which is extremely convenient for filling up water bottles and the like in the morning. The water capacity is impressive too, especially with the included side tank. One fill of the tank lasts a day or so of heavy ice consumption, but can stretch out for a good few days assuming you don’t use all that much ice. However, there are a few downsides. The Opal does require regular cleaning and descaling, especially if you’re using it nonstop, which can be a bit of a hassle. Further, the stainless steel exterior, while sleek and elegant, tends to show smudges and fingerprints easily. Not a big deal if you wipe it down regularly, but nonetheless it can get annoying. I must also note that this is a large machine, and takes up a significant amount of counter space. Overall, the GE Opal (OPAL01GEWKT) delivers fast and high-quality ice with an elegant design, making it a great choice if you’re willing to keep up with the maintenance.
