Small Capacity & Noisy

For the size of the machine, it doesn't make enough ice and the ice melts very quickly. Also, around 4 pm each day it makes a horrible noise for about 10 minutes. It's going back to Sam's.

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!

Love the ice, question the machine.

This is our third ice maker. The first one worked beautifully for a couple of years then developed a black debris in the ice I could not overcome. I even took the machine apart( warranty expired anyway) and deep cleaned could not get it to stop forming in ice every three days. Bought a new one, only to return it immediately because the water cycles into the ice bin melting the ice when ice is taken from the bin. This one ( number 3) does the exact same thing. I’m tired of returning them and it makes perfect ice so I’ll just be content to have my ice melt a bit every time I harvest ice from the bucket. I really don’t know what else to do.

We're sorry to hear that you had to replace the ice maker multiple times. The defrost cycle is automatic and usually takes about 10 to 20 minutes. This is normal operation. You can view this information at this link here: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=000062724 If the issue continues, we recommend reaching out to Opal Support at myopalservice.com, or you can also contact 1-866-907-6718.

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.

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.

Best thing ever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I received this product in the box, I was a little worried it was going to be too big for my space but I was surprised to see it was just packaged very well! This ice maker is perfect for your counter top use. The nuggets are amazing!

Great Ice Maker

Best ice maker ever. The cleaning process is tedious and the water tank needs a better design in order to pour the water in through the top instead of having to pick up the entire tank, flip it over to open the lid to pour water in, and then flip it back over to set it back into it's base. They need to make where the base is connected and the opening for the water is on the top.
