I previously had a different nugget ice maker that broke after a couple of months. It was loud and sometimes made a squeaking sound. Now this nugget ice is better quality, the machine is quiet and even can connected from an app via wi-fi. I love that I can control it when I'm not home since I'm gone some days 11+ hours for work and don't want to leave it on the whole time but having ice ready for me after my long shifts is amazing! I also love that the app tells you when it's time to clean/descale! Makes knowing when to do maintenance a breeze. Loving my opal ice maker so far!

My dream come true!! I absolutely love my nugget ice maker. I could't believe how fast this machine makes ice. I had my first cup of ice within 10 minutes of plugging up the machine. If you are an ice lover like me and appreciate good ice, then do not hesitate and buy this!! The consistency is perfect, it isnt too hard yet crunchy ! It is truly worth every penny.

We loved it at first but then after multiple cleaning cycles after setting it up and then making a first batch of ice, we all tasted the ice and I noticed something in my mouth. Removed object and it was a metal shaving! I then stopped everyone from consuming the ice and then allowed the icemaker to finish making a complete batch of ice overnight. In the morning I dumped all of the ice and the side water reservoir. I went to empty the internal reservoir and notice 2 more metal shavings floating in the bottom! I have include a picture showing the 2. We were so excited for this appliance

This thing makes a ton of perfectly soft but crunchy ice. We don't even use the ice from the fridge anymore. My kids call the fridge ice “peasant ice” now lol. My only complaint is that when you open the tub the condensation does leak out of the bottom so we put a towel on the drip tray to catch it all.

I love the ice you get from Sonic and would buy bags from there. My family knows how much I like the nugget ice so they gave me this machine for Christmas. It is so nice not having to go out to buy ice. Now I can have ice like Sonic has anytime I want. The ability to set a schedule for it to run from my cell phone is fantastic. I can check on it and turn it on from anywhere. I highly recommend this ice machine.

I was going to chick fil a for the ice every day (I would also get a root beer and food since I was there) that adds up. I have been wanting this machine for months but was saving up the money for it. Someone on Facebook said they used their credit card rewards and I immediately cashed mine in and got it. Best purchase. I love it.

This GE Opal Ice Maker is very quite and makes ice non stop. It is easy to maintain. We even drain it when leave the house and it is easy to put water back in and restart. We got this so we could have clean ice and use LeBlu Bottled Water. I would say get the ice maker its worth the extra money.

It works great so far. The ice is delicious and the appliance works as advertised. There's a slight bit of weirdness when you add water to the external tank where you have to lift it up and shake it a bit to get a good siphon going between the tank and the main unit. It's no fuss at all though. Other than that it works great.

We purchased this product to have ice maker on counter top rather than one in the refrigerator. It was pretty easy to install..took a bit of time to understand the process...but then pretty easy. It seems to be pretty quiet and was quick to produce useable ice. I like that I won't need to crush ice for my breakfast smoothies, as the ice produced is small enough for that. The capacity of the ice bin is enough for our family. We had to place the maker on the "island portion" of our counter as it was a smidge too tall to fit under the cupboards.

For all the Nugget Ice obsessed individuals such as myself, this is it all the way. Easy set up and easily connected through SmartHQ App. The perfect cloudy, soft, non-crunchy Nugget Ice. I am beyond satisfied with this product. For someone who hydrates only through chewing ice, you got a fan for life with this one.
