Nugget Ice Maker Great Purchase

Ice machine works great! The machine is well built and is exactly the dimensions provided. We followed the instructions for set up and had ice begin to start making within 10 minutes of turning the machine on! We purchased this machine three weeks ago and continue to be very pleased with the quality and quickness the machine creates a full container of ice for the family!

Perfect Counter Top Icemaker!

We bought this being a bit skeptical as many reviews mentions loudness on most of these units. Not this one - it's quiet, makes ice incredibly fast and the nuggets hold up in drinks. Highly recommend this GE ice maker - we'd give it 10 stars if we could!

Love the nuggets!

Makes a lot of nuggets (ice), more than the less expensive ice makers on the market. You do need to "clean" the unit once a week and then change the filter once a month. However, cleaning the less expensive machines was a pain since you had to wash it by hand. For the GE, you use the descaler powder, change the filter and you're good to go. (Well, I think you're good to go since I haven't owned it for more than a month yet.) You do need to place it close to a sink to facilitate easy draining.

DO NOT BUY

I was very excited when I saw a nugget ice machine at my local Sam's Club. However just 2 short weeks after purchasing, the machine started making a loud screeching noise and stopped making ice. Fortunately Sam's Club has a great return policy. But I would not recommend this machine to anyone. Very poor quality.

Ice ice baby

After 2 days i nearly returned this product because i couldn't quit figure it out... but i am SO happy i didn't! Once i learned what everything meant, how to set up the auto fill correctly, learned the drawer tilts and is not broken ..... it was ice ice ice! This machine runs so efficiently that i was storing extra bags of ice until one of our ous was full. I have used this for parties and just everyday use. I bought it for our motorhome but am using it everyday in or kitchen. It is amazing. The ice is the best texture just like chic-fil-a. Everyone in our family agrees it is much better than the ice from our fridge. Take a leap and buy it if you need an ice machine!

Great ice machine

This is a great ice machine, we bought it for our home. I make ice all day on a Saturday bag it up and put it in the freezer. It's great I tell people all the time about my machine. It keeps it frozen until it fills the bin up I dump it every hour .

Good ice

This is the one that makes chewable ice. The side water supply tank is very beneficial with water recycling and fill ups.

Hoping we just got a bad one

Planning to return. Purchased on 7/31/26 and within a week it's already making a loud screeching sound that only is remedied by turning it off for a few hours but can possibly happen again same day. Really hoping it's just a defect.

Dont waste your time or money.

Didn't even work for one day, it made a horrible screeching noise and cycled water constantly. We tried everything to make it work properly, ended up having to return it to the store.

High hopes for Opal. She let me down :(

Within 6 hours of adding water the machine began to make a loud whining noise right before going into defrost. Loud as in you could hear it from every room in the house. Within two days the machine quit altogether. It was returned. I kept my money.
