We have enjoyed the ice maker but it sounds like a cat screeching. I have tried fixes online which work for a day and then start again. Big disappointment for the money spent. A year warranty is ridiculous when it's a faulty product without the option of an extended warranty.

I bought it, on December 17th 2020, as one of my wife's desired Christmas presents. It was religiously cleaned, and maintained by my wife. Per the manufacturer's instructions. It was great, for 10 months. Then, repeatedly ceased making ice. She'd clean it again. It would work for a day., then stop. The last time, (June 2022), it didn't come back. We were told by GE that they could repair it, for over half, ($) what I'd paid for it. NOPE!

We recently purchased the GE Opal 2.0 pebble ice machine. It does take up a bit of space on the counter, but it is worth it. We love the quality of the ice as well as the wifi feature (set up daily to run at 6am and go off at 9am, then again in the evenings). The only thing I don't like is the descaling process. Takes 18+ hours to clean the machine with vinegar and multiple steps.

Love the ice maker and its pellet ice, Makes all drinks taste better. Easy to set up and refill on a daily basis. What I do find exhausting is how often it needs to be cleaned and descaled. Also very time consuming so you have to be committed with proper upkeep if you are going to purchase.

I just purchased this ice machine this evening! My 14 year old son unboxed it for me. The packaging was neat and extremely protective. The instructions were very easy to read. We run the cleaning the first time as instructed with bleach and followed with three more plain water cleanings. We filled the bottom reservoir and the side tank with water and turned the machine on. Within 8 minutes we tried out the first few nuggets! The ice is exactly as advertised. We are so impressed with the Opal 2.0. The ice is far better than I had expected, so light and soft. After 15 minutes, I filled my small juice cup with ice!

The ice maker is nice and sturdy. I just installed it and it's currently making ice. I thought I would produce ice a little faster. It's been about 30 min and it's made a small pile of ice. I can't give it a five stars yet since I just started using it. But so far so good.

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.

I love this machine's product. I love that there is an interior light (high/low). I like that it can be controlled via wifi. I don't like that my machine like noise about once every few days for no reason even though it's been regularly cleaned and descaled.

I really like the ice that it makes, not happy with the loud vibration sound though. And worst of all, we have had it less than two months and it leaked water from the tank not the hoses for some reason and cracked up my furniture it was on in the the dining room.

This ice maker did not disappoint, it started dropping the soft ice within 15 mins. Using this ice make your smoothie taste a lot better specially the protein drinks they taste like ice cream. I would recommend this ice maker, a little noisy but well worth
