GE Profile Opal 38-lb Ice Per day Portable/Countertop Nugget Ice Maker ( Stainless Steel )

More Than an Ice Maker for Our Family

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought the Opal 2.0 for a reason I never thought I’d be writing about in a product review. Our daughter struggles with anxiety, and while she was in treatment, she found that chewing soft ice was something that really helped her when she was feeling anxious or overwhelmed. As we started preparing for her to come home, we wanted to make sure she could continue using some of the coping tools that had helped her during treatment. That is actua...

Cant use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Can’t even use because it ice jams up and it makes a terrible noise.

Horrible

Mine makes an awfull noise. Look up the videos. There are many. Support drags their feet and gaslights you. They clearly have a crappy product. I will say we loved the ice we got for the first 2 months. Now its about to be in a video similar to the printer in OfficeSpace. Save your money and time. Two months of fighting with them to get a replacement and now they will not honor the remaining warranty on the replacement.

Can't recommend

We just gave ours away. Loved the ice. Hated cleaning it every three weeks. Always had a watery mess to clean up. Way too loud to be in our kitchen where it was convenient. I would not buy this unless I had a huge utility room with a sink and it was located right next to the kitchen.

Great when it works

Its great when it works, is also very noisy and kind of has a mind of its own

Poor quality

The machine stop making ice. Goes between making ice to defrosting cycle with out making ice. This machine have an excellent cleaning buy the book and still fail. This machine is not cheap is expensive. Is possible that GE send me a new ice maker for free?

Great ice, crazy noises and not just the motor

The ice is fantastic but I’m 2 weeks in and this thing makes the craziest noises. Very loud strangled mechanical sounds. The motor noise is just fine but there is seriously something wrong with this. I have to turn it off all the time which kind of defeats the purpose of having ice on hand.

Great Ice, but don’t leave on continuously

In general it works well. But if I leave it on it starts making a horrible moaning sound. I tried descaling but doesn’t fix the problem.

Good Ice but Doesn’t last

Love the ice but started making a very loud noise like the motor is going bad. Have only had it for 15 months.

Great Machine

Love the machine. The only knock on it is how extensive and often it needs to be cleaned.
