It looks nice, and does operate when it wants to. Otherwise, I'm order to setup the Wi-Fi, you have to register your product through an app, that's a third party with GE. I used it for one day and it already requires to descale and clean. I set a timer for when to start making ice on the day we used it and it never operated so we had less ice than anticipated for our gathering. There's a ouddoe of water in the r ice bin before it starts making ice, which would melt the ice much quicker in the reservoir. Again, it looks nice, it makes ice but all of our appliances that came with the new build house are GE and we've had to have them serviced or replaced within two years. Curious how long this ice maker will last.

Best ice ever! Bought and returned a different ice maker. Thought it was awesome and cheaper. Then we bought this one, which we wanted in the 1st place but didn't want to pay the price. But... this far exceeds the precious maker. Tastes great, makes a lot of ice very fast and is SO quiet. Ice chewers will love this machine. We in Texas love it as we need ice all the time!!! Neighbor and fellow ice chewer waited for our recommendation and now he has one too!

This is the second one I purchased, the first after 3 months made a high squealing noise and it's loud and many people with same issue can be found. It says it's defrosting but it just quit so I bought a second and 3 days later it's squealing as well. Love the ice it makes but hate the machine and being woke up at night.

This was a Christmas gift for my wife because she would have me go to the store to get a cup of the “good ice” often. We are both happy with our new GE Profile Opal 2.0 Ice-Maker with extra Easy-Fill Water Tank . Definitely recommend the water tank. We now don't need to waste fuel or time driving to the store for nugget ice. It was easy to set up. You can hear it running in our small kitchen however it's not annoyingly loud just a gentle hum. We purchased the water filter too which is a nice option feature. Have been using it constantly for a month now without any issues. When setting it up just follow the instructions. We live in an area with hard water so we follow the descaling recommendation of every 2-3 weeks. Working virtually from home I find that I am drinking more water more often with the good ice even though it's winter here because it's so much more refreshing with this ice. This unit is on the expensive side however it's been a good investment so far. We've had a few parties and our guests enjoy the ice too. More time is needed to know how durable it will be. After a year it would be good to give another review.

I looked everywhere for a machine that made this restaurant type of ice. I saw Opal back when it was a startup but it was too expensive for me and the reviews weren't great. Now that GE took over and seem to have worked out the bugs, the ratings have improved. It makes a lot of ice and is perfect for those of us who snack on it.

This is a great product. Easy to use, makes fantastic ice and looks great sitting on the counter. We love 'Sonic Ice'--if you've ever had a drink from the Sonic Food Chain, you know what I am talking about. The ice is soft and keeps drinks cold for a long time. It is a great addition to our kitchen and our friends love it.

It's great at making ice. However, for such a high price tag, it should also refrigerate the ice. It's inconvenient to have to move the ice to the freezer as it starts to melt. For this reason, I returned mine. Hopefully, the next version can refrigerate the ice, I could but it again.

If you're looking for "Sonic Ice," look no further! It may be even better! This is our third countertop unit, the first two were off-brand and lasted a couple of years. We've had this for about a month and it's been nothing but amazing. Highly recommend getting the side tank. My wife and kids go through it like candy. It's definitely pricier than the others but so far so good!

This ice maker works great at keeping up with our family. It is quick to set up and within a short time was already making ice. The only downside it that it can drip when you open the front drawer to get ice. It isn't a big deal, but I do feel like I have to wipe it down every time someone gets ice.

i gave my wife the Opal nugget ice maker for her birthday and she absolutely LOVES it. I have to refill the side water holder at least once a day. The nuggets are all soft, perfectly formed little gems that she loves. If you like to chew on ice, consider the Opal to really enjoy nibbling on these soft nuggets.
