Descale your appliance choice, not THIS icemaker.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product itself may surprise me but the initial cleaning is the tank was not as detailed with illustrations as much as I think it should. I'm a rather intelligent lady with a college background as well as I feel vetted in having common knowledge and street smarts. But I will say this instruction manual could use some major updates. It made me have to stop and restart the steps over numerous times. It also doesn't tell you that you have to confirm after each cleaning cycle that I want to continue with the cleaning quarters it goes through. The cleaning mode should be a touch and go system instead of causing the user to have to fully dedicate their time standing at the appliance and assist in the cleaning process.

Serious Quality Concerns.

Out of the box the machine is great. Looks good in the kitchen and makes amazing ice. Very easy to set up connect WiFi and program a schedule using the app. Unfortunately, we are currently on our THIRD machine in about 5 years (we had the original opal initially and we were able to upgrade it under warranty from retailer when it died) and all have had the same issue. They get progressively noisier then suddenly start making horrible squealing sounds then eventually stop working. Quality is a major issue. Especially at this price point. We only ever use RO water, it was descaled on a fairly regular and was put through a full cleaning at least 4 times since being purchased in June 2023. Still - it started squealing and stopped making ice.

Wish it would have worked

This was a gift from my family. They spent a lot of money on this product and not worth it. It is great when it worked the one time. I had issues with it not making ice from the beginning. We cleaned it multiple times thinking there was something in the filter but it did not help. It would work for a short time and then not make ice at all. It only made a full container of ice once in the past year. Very disappointing for the cost of the product.

Don't use filter can't use after1st true cleaning

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would have love to know that when it tells you to do a cleaning for the first time that you can't put the filter back in because the machine doesn't recognize it. It try's to make ice and then it stops and tells you to add more water and you have a side tank and it is totally full and the inside the water has gone down due to the fact that it tried to make ice, so you add a little more water into the machine and it try to make ice and then stops and tells you to add more water and it is all due to the filter, I took it out and I have not had any problems making ice sense. I only use Filtered water, so we decide not to use the filter anymore. There is no true instructions for this machine. No clear trouble shooting help in the book and everything I found on the internet was not that much helpful either to figure this out. When ice melts it makes a lot of water in the bottom of the bin and doesn't drain out very well, all I have seen water in between the walls of the bin after its been washed and it seam like when I wipe down the front part under were the bin is it seams that the water keeps popping back up, so I'm not sure if water could be leaking down into the front of the machine from that area when it gets wet from the bin hanging down when you get the ice out because of all the melted ice that turned into water. Don't use the filter is a problem and the machine doesn't recognize it after you do the first true cleaning and put it back into the machine, so it is worthy.

Keep it cleaned!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product works great and produces lots of ice in a short amount of time, however it must be kept clean and descaling often. I am having a problem with the internal float device determining if there's any water in it. We ran several cleaning cycles and let it sit for 18 hours, and this seems to have fixed the issue.

Good Deal & makes a lot of ice fast!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my 3rd countertop ice maker. It is a bit more than what I spent on others, But, It is worth every penny! It makes ice quickly, and its pretty quite. it only takes up about 2 inches more the other countertop models I've had, but its a way better designed ice maker. Its makes LOTS of wonderfully crunchy nuggets. No more running out of Ice or running to the store to buy the continuously shrinking pounds bagged Ice. The ice "bucket" holds a nice amount & refills quick. Set up is quick and easy. Just clean it, than run a few ice making cycles and toss the first two batches and now your are ready to enjoy a cold cocktail or cooler fill-up ! This little ice makers is going to be a game changer for next years Pool Parties!!!

Unreliable

Unreliable. 1st unit failed after 6 months. GE replaced unit under warranty, and it failed after 5 months. Both had the same issue. Stopped making ice due to “Add Water” error, even though reservoir was full and water cascading down the back. I only used distilled water in both units, and I followed the cleaning instructions as stated in the manual. I believe you have a design issue. I was not willing to request another unit, even though it was still under the initial 12 month warranty period. There is little reason to believe the next one would be any different. I scrapped it last week. An expensive lesson.

Best Ice Machine All Around

Love this ice machine. I've owned two now as my daughter stole the original one we had when she left hime for good. Then a second one I bought to replace it. They are both still running smooth as ever. Easy maintenance, easy to use, great ice size and great buy all together. The capacity of ice in hand is perfect for a get together or just drinks with friends. Noise is minimal the loudest is barely noticeable and installation is a breeze. Best ice machine on the market! Recommend!

Love ice but new model lacking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the nugget ice but this model has issues with the provided filters. Needs ‘cleaning' often and can reduce production. Often says needs water but there is a full side tank and water in reservoir. Poor upgrades that don't work well, software updates needed and machine is loud from many days of lack of water.

Lovely product. When it works.

It's lovely. When it works. I owned this beauty of a machine for a week before the trouble started. “ADD WATER” appeared when the ice maker had plenty of water. Sometimes I could reset the message and restart the ice-making stage by opening and closing the ice bin, power cycling the machine using the power button or unplugging it and plugging it back in, running a cleaning cycle, and cleaning the sensors. it was inconsistent on what would make it work again. It even turned off (shown on the app and ice was melting) but all indicator lights on the front unit remained lit. I want to say more but apparently reviews are moderated and some comments are not allowed. Purchased 1-27-2021.
