It fits perfectly in the space on the counter. It's very quiet and works like a dream to produce the best ice.

Howling Ice Machine

I just connected my new machine yesterday and the noise that it makes is horrendous!!! The noise is high pitched squealing.

Bit pricey, but perfect nuggets!

Love this ice maker. My daughter says my ice is better than Sonic or the hospital! Keeps ice frozen in the drawer overnight.

Worth it

Best investment ever does not turn into slush. I can’t believe I waited this long to get one. So good on hot days. Easy for the kids to chew.

Great to have operating.

This replaced an inexpensive ice maker we’d had for a while. A little intimidating right out of the box, and heavy to maneuver. It’s a dream once you get into it. Ice is great and easy to handle. Cleaning is easy and quick.

Noisy

On occasion, it makes this long whining noise that persists for several minutes. The noise is rather loud and when it happens in the morning, it typically wakes up everyone. It is very annoying!

It works but not as good as it should.

Our sister had the same exact model and her’s produces the nuggets so much better (better shaped) and her bin stays full, like it’s supposed to work. Ours does not. She purchased her right after we got ours. We are currently not happy with it.

The Opal will begin ice production 10-30 minutes after it has been turned on. It will continue to make ice until the bin is full, or it runs out of water. To continue making ice to ensure the bin is full and stays full, just add more water to the reservoir. It is recommended that there be at least 4” of clearance in the back, on both sides, and above the Opal to allow proper air flow so that the fan can move air about the unit.

Love it

I absolutely love my Ice Maker! I use it everyday!! My only thing is I wish it was a litle quieter. It sounds like a dial up modem for yesteryears....

When your Opal is in need of defrosting, it may start to squeak as ice builds up around the mechanisms. The defrost cycle is automatic, and may take 30-45 minutes to complete. More frequent squeaking many indicate the need for a deep cleaning using white vinegar to remove internal mineral scale buildup. We also recommend checking to be sure you have a minimum of 4" of clearance on all sides, back and at the top for good air circulation. Also check to be sure any vents on the sides or back of the unit aren't blocked. Additional information regarding descaling or sanitizing can be found in the online Owner's Manual - https://images.salsify.com/image/upload/s--ICQ21ZKI--/dc06c26a71060819d54b8d9bf6c53eb64be9dce9.pdf. Please contact us again if the squeaking persists, becomes more frequent or gets louder.

Beautiful but not recommended

The product deliver a nice ice, however for the price is not worth it, I already bought no one but two Machines and after 2 years doing the proper cleaning as recommended, both are not working anymore.
