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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the ice that this makes but was expecting for the machine to be smaller. It takes up way more room on my counter than I was expecting. But really love the texture of the ice. My kids love it too! Recommend if you have a lot of counter space.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this ice maker at the perfect time as my fridge stopped making ice a few weeks ago and I was not ready to have it repaired yet. This ice maker was large, honestly probably wouldn’t recommend unless you have a ton of counter space for it, but worked amazingly. It was so quiet when it ran (quieter than my washing machine) It makes a ton of ice quickly and is easy to clean after use. I definitely have enjoyed having this and would recommend to anyone looking for a high quality ice maker for their home or business.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ice machine is AMAZING! The set up process was super easy, cleaning portion was pretty simple also! It is so quiet!! The ice is the best! It is very heavy duty which I do not mind. Luckily I have counter space for it😆 Cannot wait to make so many yummy drinks with this!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ice maker was super easy to set up! I couldn’t hook it to our water supply so having the water tank was a big help! It literally only took a few hours for it to produce the ice. And the little crunchable cubes are great!

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t say enough great things about this I’ve maker. It has been used non stop for the last month. The ice tastes great. Easy set up. Is a little loud at times. But overall it’s very handy and we can’t get enough of it. The side tank is a great feature and lasts for days.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the crunchiness of the ice that this makes! It also didn't taste like tap water. Althought it is a bit on the heavy and bulkier side, and it took a while to make ice the first time but the noise level is low so it didn't bother me.

Omg I LOVE this ice machine!! I bought it a few years ago and it’s still running strong! It makes my favorite kind of ice cubes that I’ve only been able to get while in the hospital!!! I had been looking for a home size machine for years before I finally found it. I 100% recommend it!!!!
