I bought this to use while awaiting repairs on the refrigerator ice maker I love this so much I dont care if the refrigerator gets repaired or not. The ice maker keeps up with demand on these hot summer days and I live the nugget ice. Best decision to purchase!

I recently purchased the Opal 2.0 Nugget ice maker, and I must say, it's truly amazing! From its sleek design to its efficient performance, this ice maker has exceeded all my expectations. It produces ice quickly and quietly, ensuring that I always have a steady supply on hand for any occasion. Plus, its compact size fits perfectly on my countertop without taking up too much space. If you're in need of a reliable and convenient ice maker, look no further than the Opal 2.0. It's simply awesome!

Makes the small, chewable ice as intended. Can be noisy when first filling up or defrosting but noise reduces as more ice is produced. Makes ice within 20 minutes as stated but takes approximately 30 for a full cup. Takes up a decent amount of counter space but not much more than a typical countertop toaster oven. The wifi capability makes scheduling easy. If you like the crunchy, “Sonic” ice, this machine does the job.

If you love nugget ice- you will be obsessed with this machine. It makes ice very quickly and the ice stays frozen for a good amount of time. My only complaint is that the machine is loud (sounds like I’m making popcorn in the microwave) but I have honestly gotten used to it. I definitely recommend this to ice lovers out there.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First impression: This unit is sleek and modern looking. It would look great in any kitchen. It is big! It turns out our upper cabinets were installed lower than is standard so it didn’t fit in the original spot I had in mind but can sit on a freestanding cabinet we had. It is heavy so initially moving it to drain into the sink during sanitizing was sort of a pain. The ice it makes is awesome. I love nugget Ice! It cools down drinks fast and it is nice to eat. It made ice pretty quickly though it did start out wet and slushy at the start of the cycle. Read your manual carefully at the initial setup. I accidentally attached the wrong hose to the side tank and made a huge leak (all my fault—this was CLEARLY labeled and emphasized in the directions). I think the sanitizing process will seem easy now that I’ve done it once but I felt a little overwhelmed the first time through. Operation is easy and straightforward. Overall, I highly recommend this unit if you are in the market for a countertop ice maker!

Provided enough nugget ice for a family of heavy ice users. The clean light came on once and it took about 15/20 minutes to clean. It occasionally makes a low squeaking noise but it is seldom and I seem to be the only one that notices it. The side reservoir is a must in my opinion. Would recommend it

We had the 1st Build Opal ice maker for over 7 years. It started being a little finicky - ice not staying frozen. Everyone loved our ice machine so we instantly started looking to replace it. We were directed to the GE Opal 2.0. Set up this morning and already have a full tray of ice!! So excited for the side tank reservoir. We anticipate not having to fill with water every day!

The machine works as promised. Easy to set up and maintain. Storage bin is small but works for 2-3 people with moderate use, not for a dinner party. Ice quality is perfect. It would be nice to have an option for hook up for continuous water supply. It is a bit noisy but we have it in another room. Clearly a luxury but we love it!

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!

I have wanted this for years and resisted because of the price.I have had two other countertop icemakers and while those were good, this one is spectacular. The ice does not stick together like when you buy a bag of nugget ice. The ice making keeps up with our big family. The only negative is that the app is pretty lame. I would buy this icemaker again and again.
