I am writing this because. I’ve already had the earlier model and it wasn’t as well designed as this 2,0. The ice bin is better and side by side it makes ice faster and is much less noisy as compared to the earlier model. The knowing that the unit is defrosting is an added feature that I think I will like.

I received this ice machine from my husband for Christmas as a new addition to my Queendom n it worked great! I had to call about the creepy noise it was making but overall, it was good until now. I did a cleaning as instructed but then on the first batch of ice was these little black things in the ice. Needlrss to say I was mortified bc I immediately thought of mold! I tried to clean again to no avail. Now it won't even produce ice! It makes that creepy noise n that's all! I AM VERY DISSAPOINTED bc this machine was loved by all that came toy home and I cried for one year after year until my hubby broke down n got it! Oh well, I guess it was fun. Can't figire out what else to do.

It is too early to give a detailed review as we have just installed the ice maker today, but suffice it to say that it was easy to set up and it is already making ice just 15-20 minutes after finishing the set up. It makes a low humming noise, but not intrusive. It is attractive and does not feel "out of place" in our kitchen.

I upgraded to the 2.0 Opal and I'm enjoying it more than the older module. It's taking up less counter space than the first module and I like the look of the Smart HQ app for the Opal 2. Not sure if it's me but it seems to keep ice longer when its not in Making Ice Mode. Also like that the clean function is on the front and not the back.

Works great so far. I would recommend anyone who buys it to purchase the warranty. The first one I bought the fan stopped working and it kept saying add water when it was full of water. I had it replaced under the warranty. Final note it stopped working at the one year mark

We love our new ice machine. Works great and the wifi feature is so convenient to set a schedule and control when I am away from home. We have noticed some noises and it seems to need cleaning more quiet often then I expected so I am trying to understand if its just our water, but overall we love it and are happy with our purchase.

I bought this ice maker with the money I won from my disability case. I have a ton of health issues and have been issuing bagged ice for a while now and my hands and back don’t like me picking them up. I bought this machine to help me get ice easily as I use tons of it a day and esp if I have company over it’s worked great I would def buy it again

After 2.5 years of our Opal Ice Maker Ed1, we knew we had to buy another (although the first ice machine should not have broke 2.5 yrs in) since we love the ice and functionality. Now hete we are with our 2.0 Opal Ice Maker. Excited about this one. MAKE SURE TO CLEAN THEM EVERY 3 WEEKS AND ONLY USE DISTILLED WATER!!!!!

Have only had this product up and running for About a week now, but the quality of the ice is absolutely amazing and as close to sonic ice as you could get. It is also very quick at making ice so you can guarantee that you will have a Cup full of ice in no time

We absolutely love our new GE Opal Ice Maker! It's very convenient to have the WIFI connected to be able to set the operation schedule in the app. We wake up to ice ready in they morning and it shuts down in the evening when we're done with it for the day.
