I’ve wanted one of these for so long but the price held me back. I’m so glad I finally splurged. The machine is super easy to set up. We were making ice in less than 30 minutes. The GOOD ice! Our whole family uses it throughout the day and the bin is always full for the next use. If you’re on the fence just get it!

I really didn’t need to buy another one but my neighbor who is my daughter and my grandkids would come so much to buy ice. I recently moved, they were more sad about the ice machine than me moving, lol. So I gave her the old one and purchased a new one.

My husband & I hesitated to purchase a countertop ice maker because of space concerns as well as fear of it being too much trouble or not making enough ice. After much reviewing, with the GE Opal consistently coming out on top, we took the plunge. I'm so glad we did. We both love the small nugget ice. Ice production is quick and with the side tank, refilling is easy. No more fighting with the built-in icemaker in the refrigerator door! I'd highly recommend this to anyone considering a countertop ice maker.

I really like the Opal 2.0 ice maker. The ice is small and chewable. It’s not quite like that great gas station or fast food ice, but close. The machine is pretty quiet overall and I like that. I do not like the fact that melted water drips out every time you open the ice bin though. Sometimes it is quite a bit of water. If I could suggest an improvement, that would be it.

It was packaged very securely and arrived in perfect condition. The set up was a breeze and took less than 30 minutes. Directions were straightforward, easy to understand, and follow. I purchased the optional side tank, but since now every beverage has to be made with “the good ice” it seems like I’m still adding water all the time. I wish they would have included, as an option to plumb in directly to the homes water line. Only regret is I wish I would have made the purchase sooner.

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.

Love the machine, but it begins to squeal after awhile. I mean a lot! I checked the GE support FAQS and found that this isn't unusual. So shut it down and restarted it. The noise begin again. My wife was driving me crazy about it. Sis a cleaning and it stopped, for awhile. So figured out a cleaning with water and Vinger would fix it until it wanted to be cleaned again. But other than that it works great.

I love the ice from this machine. I bought the 2.0 because it was told to be quieter. It was at first, but now it is very noisy. Unfortunately, the noise issue is not a warranty issue. Please note--you must clean this machine weekly. This is a relatively time-consuming process...but if you want to keep your warranty, you'd better do that... Still worth it...

I first saw this product when a friend bought it a few years back. I instantly wanted one! I decided that my children's braces and medicines could wait another year and picked one up. I love it! My children love it! My wife isn't speaking to me now. 2 birds, one stone! WINNING!

I live for this ice. It is the only ice we use. It makes eveything colder and stays longer. Our fridge ice always tasted like whatever was in the fridge ( cilantro, pineapple or celery). This is fresh, soft chewable ice. We only used bottled water for it and have a filter on it. Tate great! It has been worth every penny so far!
