We bought this based on reviews and how much ice it could make. We were drawn to the self clean feature and good overall looks of the unit. 1st off it has great ice and everyone who comes over loves it. It has some nice features such as the ability to set use times which is very convenient. The only downside to this unit is the squeaking noise that sounds like a dead donkey that it makes abut 3-4 times a day. Very annoying and embarrassing when people are over. It seems this is an issue with a lot of others as well. We have been using it for about 4 months and I think I would buy it again if the noise would go away for good. Love the ice hate the noise.

Purchased this for our home (family of 7) and we have used it 9 months with no issues! Highly recommend this ice maker if you are looking to purchase one for your home. Easy to follow maintenance steps and overall great ice maker! Delish nugget ice!!!

I am absolutely in love with my ice machine. It's so quiet and easy to set up. Cleaning it was so easy and didn't take much time. Having the water tank is incredible, and easy to fill up. And the ice!! Oh my goodness it's like sonic ice and chick fil a ice had a baby. It's the perfect size and the perfect crunch.

I not only love this ice maker but I am in love with this ice maker. It's been life changing for me and others in my house. Easy to set up, clean, and use. Even with the hard calcified water I have, the ice taste really clean and purified. The app tells me when I need to clean it and love the smart features it has. Highly recommend if even just for the sonic style ice it offers. To top it off American made!

We absolutely love this ice maker. We have it set on a schedule to come on in the mornings and shut off in the evenings. Always have plenty of ice for when we have guests over. Great investment to our kitchen, and the stainless looks great and matches our other appliances.

My family purchased this ice machine a couple of months a ago. I haven't been disappointed at all with the performance of this machine. The ice stays frozen, the capacity of the storage bin is large, the side water chamber is easy to refill, and the bin fills with ice very fast. We love it and we would definitely recommend this unit!

I was in love with this ice machine until this morning at 4:00 am it started making this horrible noise. I had to unplug it. I plugged it in about 3 hours later and it stopped making the noise. Not sure what that was about. lol I love the ice it lasts long in my drink. I've only had it less than a month so I hope the noise isn't serious because this machine is expensive. Overall I gave it a 4 star because of the noise but if I would've rated it yesterday I would've gave it a 5 star.

We've had to replace our ice makers 5 times now in the last 6 years. The first 2 were the 1.0 model, each lasting over one year. Customer service, I'm grateful, usually responds in a timely manner. The third was replaced with the 2.0, which lasted almost a year initially; the last 2 didnt make it 2 days before it started making loud noises. We're trying to hang in there Opal but it's a hassle having to keep returning these. My suggestion, re-engineer the motors, pumps, and so on. They are NOT working as they should from the get go and these are New, not rebuilt replacements. How is it they are getting worse instead of better? Find out where the ball is being dropped and fix it, Please! Good luck!

I've read other people's complaints about it being loud and it almost deterred me but I purchased this anyways and I'm glad I did! Also it's not THAT loud. I highly recommend purchasing the variant I did that has the side tank to put water in so you're not having to pull the tray out so much to pour water in it. So much more convenient to pull the side tank off and unscrew that cap and then fill that. The ice tastes great. I drink iced coffee multiple times daily and love it! (My dogs do too!) :)

Amazing machine! Beautiful appearance. Matches all my other GE profile appliances. Ice is perfect for drinks and crunching! I used to buy Sonic ice but now i have it at home. Always fresh! My entire family enjoys the ice too. You will not be disappointed and yes. It's worth the money.
