We bought this being a bit skeptical as many reviews mentions loudness on most of these units. Not this one - it's quiet, makes ice incredibly fast and the nuggets hold up in drinks. Highly recommend this GE ice maker - we'd give it 10 stars if we could!

I was very excited when I saw a nugget ice machine at my local Sam's Club. However just 2 short weeks after purchasing, the machine started making a loud screeching noise and stopped making ice. Fortunately Sam's Club has a great return policy. But I would not recommend this machine to anyone. Very poor quality.

After 2 days i nearly returned this product because i couldn't quit figure it out... but i am SO happy i didn't! Once i learned what everything meant, how to set up the auto fill correctly, learned the drawer tilts and is not broken ..... it was ice ice ice! This machine runs so efficiently that i was storing extra bags of ice until one of our ous was full. I have used this for parties and just everyday use. I bought it for our motorhome but am using it everyday in or kitchen. It is amazing. The ice is the best texture just like chic-fil-a. Everyone in our family agrees it is much better than the ice from our fridge. Take a leap and buy it if you need an ice machine!

Ice machine works great! The machine is well built and is exactly the dimensions provided. We followed the instructions for set up and had ice begin to start making within 10 minutes of turning the machine on! We purchased this machine three weeks ago and continue to be very pleased with the quality and quickness the machine creates a full container of ice for the family!

This is a great ice machine, we bought it for our home. I make ice all day on a Saturday bag it up and put it in the freezer. It's great I tell people all the time about my machine. It keeps it frozen until it fills the bin up I dump it every hour .

I always wanted a nugget ice maker and this one is a perfect match. It's size allows plenty of ice, refills quickly and still fits on the counter. I tried it without the side tank initially, but found that we were refilling the internal tank daily (that's how good the ice is!). With the side tank, we only have to refill it weekly.

Makes a lot of nuggets (ice), more than the less expensive ice makers on the market. You do need to "clean" the unit once a week and then change the filter once a month. However, cleaning the less expensive machines was a pain since you had to wash it by hand. For the GE, you use the descaler powder, change the filter and you're good to go. (Well, I think you're good to go since I haven't owned it for more than a month yet.) You do need to place it close to a sink to facilitate easy draining.

This icemaker works exactly as it should. It starts producing pellets within a few minutes. It will fill the bin with wonderful soft pellets in a little over an hour. The added side tank, makes it a breeze to fill. We fill the tank every other day. With the tank, you never have to check the water level inside the icemaker. We run ours on a smart outlet. We turn it on at 7:00AM and off at 7:00PM. Overnight the ice mostly melts and it all goes into the internal reservoir It is fast and reasonably quiet. All you hear is a faint hum and the ice pellets dropping. We've tried several, and this one is the clear winner.

We are having trouble with the ice maker. It is making a screeching sound for long periods of time

Load squeal never lasted two days before we took it back. Called GE they acknowledged that has been a problem with them.
