Lovely ice machine

I thought I wouldn't need an ice maker, but here we are. I've had this machine for the past few weeks now and it has been great for me and cooling down here in the Southern heat! I was getting tired having to fill ice trays and storage buckets with water and ice over and over again so I decided to splurge on this. This machine makes ice so quickly and that lasts so long! It's really made my beverages outside of just water a lot more enjoyable. It's aided by an app if you decide to use it which allows you to schedule ice making which is neat. I do wish the lighting inside was a bit better to see if the machine is dirty or if the bulb was changed to something that could kill bacteria.

Amazing product if you keep up with it

The end result of ice is amazing! I bought this machine for my girlfriend and she loves it. I only use distilled water in the machine and I still get clogging and have to pinch the hoses often. It's pretty unstable unless you keep up with the maintenance.

LOVE the ice!

I have always been aware of which restaurants have the best ice! Now, I'm able to have as much ice as I want at home. This ice is the best! Easily able to be chewed, although don't tell your dentist. :-) My whole family loves this ice machine. We are now very well hydrated!! Another review had mentioned that this ice maker made a noise or rattled, I think. We just adjusted the position of the water reservoir on the side and it went away.

Worst ice machine

This was great for the first few weeks. It does not work over 75 degrees inside. It doesn't keep up. Tried to warranty it out but was denied. We've had it for less than 2 years and spent so much money its terrible. It's now making a terrible gear grinding noise and cleaning it every over week with bleach and every other week with vinegar. I will never buy a GE product again.

LOVE this ice maker!!

I owned a nugget ice maker before this one (not GE brand) and I enjoyed it immensely…until it randomly stopped working. I finally caved after about a year of wanting this one and bought it. I definitely do not regret it at all. It's got a sleek design that looks fabulous on my counter. The water tank is super easy to remove and refill. The cleaning process is simple, if a little time consuming, and doesn't require purchasing any extra things to complete. The ice bucket slides in and sits very well. Even my 7 year old son doesn't have any problems with pulling out the bucket to get ice. I love that both the tank and the ice bucket have a pressure valve to release the water in them. It means the ice bucket doesn't drip all over the place when it's pulled out (my last one did!), and adding water to the tank is mess free since you don't have to worry about water dripping all over the place. As for the ice itself…perfect (Italian finger kiss). I couldn't ask for better ice. They're small and crunchy. I fill my 40 oz water bottle when I leave for work and I still have ice when I come home. My ice bucket is never empty because it refills so quickly. I enjoy the scheduled automation function and the fact that when the bucket is full, it won't start making ice again until the bucket is pulled out and put back into place. It gets a lot of “off” (down but not powered off) time throughout the day because of this function. I feel it will help preserve the machine through its life time.

So Wonderful!

So, I have wanted one of these for some time. I have always liked chewing on ice, much to my parents' chagrin, and have a predilection for quality pellet ice - you know, the amazing ice you get at many restaurants. We also just got into making Tiki cocktails, and many of them use large amounts of ice to make the beverage super cold and enjoyable. So, it was time to make it happen, and I can report that this machine is amazing. Not only does this machine make the ice I love, it allows me to use my phone to program a schedule for it to do so. It's great to keep energy use down to a minimum, so it only makes ice when we need it. I also like how the water from the ice as it melts goes into the reservoir, so we don't waste it. The machine doesn't have a "freezer" in the ice compartment, so the ice will melt if it's not consumed - I like that we aren't wasting energy with that, and we just focus on making fresh ice for relatively immediate use. Super easy to clean and set up. Great product. Glad I finally got it!

Smart lights, smart speaker, smart ice machine?!

Get into it! Yes, Opal isn't cheap but when you've been home for a year, you need something to look forward to. At 4:30 p.m. party lights, party music and how party ice automatically turn on to let me know it's happy hour. Also, we unplugged opal to repaint the backsplash and it emailed me! It said it had been offline for 48 hours and to come check on it! It also provided me contact information if I had technical issues. If the robots are coming and they are like this, sign me up!

SO loud!

I love the ice, but this machine is horribly loud. When it is defrosting, I cannot hear the television that is on in the same room. If I am upstairs sleeping it will wake me up. I will be reaching out to GE to see if this is how this item should be or is this one a lemon.

Amazing ice- unreliable design

I love the ice that this produces and the ease of use, but unfortunately I am already on my second one. The first only lasted 6 months before it totally stopped cooling. The warranty process took months and they sent a refurbished unit. So far so good on the second one- but my expectations for longevity are low.

Good but could be better

This a great nugget Ice maker and we love it! But the APP is useless (basically turns on and off light and tells if it is making ice or not...).Also it needs the external water supply needs rethought... The opening sits in the reservoir so every time you need to refill the water you have to handle the part that will be submerged in the reservoir (not very sanitary). There also is no light or any indication of the water level (sure you can seethe level in the clear plastic but it would be great to get some indication the water level is low. Finally would be great if there was a way you could tap right off a water line and not worry about refilling the reservoir. Great ice maker but could be better.
