EXCELLENT PRODUCT

This ice machine is the BEST thing I've purchased in a while. I was very impressed with the quality of ice it makes. A gallon seems to go a long way. I highly recommend this product!!!

Ice nuggets

I love these ice nuggets. I thought they would melt down really quickly in a drink, but they don’t. They actually chill the drink very quickly and remain pretty solid for a long time. I use them in my thermos and it last all day.

Great unit makes self serve ice on countertop

Works well much quieter than Fridgeidare, unfortunately we bought two weeks before $120 price reduction- cannot find anyone at Sams to help me with price adjustment

Wonderful!! We love the Opal!

The Opal is great, makes the best nuggets to crunch on. Very convenient and easy to maintain. Makes your beverage colder. Makes ice nuggets quicker than I thought, the whole family loves Opal!

Extra Tank doesn't work

I love the machine makes great ice super fast only thing is it will not get the water from the tank on the side. I've moved it, cleaned and nothing. It only did it once and never again. Also it tends to melt in the macine.

We encourage you to review page 12 of the Owner's Manual to ensure the tubing is connected properly - https://images.salsify.com/image/upload/s--9_JHdteK--/248fcfa1db27d93cf26d2d04dad1f2db57a3f5f1.pdf. Check to be sure the hoses are lying flat. If the water still doesn't flow, lift the tank from the ice maker and raise it 4" to 5" until water starts to flow then, place the tank back in position. It is normal for the ice in the bin to melt. The Opal ice maker does not maintain the temperatures needed for keeping the ice frozen. The water from the melted ice is recycled, filtered and used to make new ice.

horrible delivery, cant use

Was delivered severely damaged. This item is only sold online. I am being asked to return to club for a refund and repurchase online. i was excited but unsure a replacement will be delivered without damage. So annoying and hugely inconvenient.

There are days...

There are days when I think that this GE Opal ice machine is the best thing in the kitchen. The other days I just love the convenience of fresh, easily available ice. The size of the ice pieces is perfect for drinks or going into a blender. I purchased the one with the side tank and it definitely was the right decision. It is easier to fill the side tank. I use distilled water The only downside to this machine is the monthly cleaning. After a few times, it becomes a smooth process and you will want clean ice! The machine will prompt you when it is time to clean I have already recommended to friends

Terrible Product!

I owned this and the cleaning went from once a month to every week within three months time. I do not recommend! You will be better off buy a self cleaning ice machine. You can find small industrial ones that works a whole lot better and can be cheaper.
