What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the ice maker for producing superior nugget ice that is wet, crunchy, and ready in 10 to 20 minutes, with many calling it the best ice they've ever had. The smart app features and sleek design enhance convenience and kitchen aesthetics. However, a notable group reports persistent loud noises during defrost cycles and reliability issues, with some units failing within months or two years. Despite these concerns, most customers consider the exceptional ice quality and speed worthwhile and recommend the product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using it for a week now. Definitely a heavier and bigger size. Very sleek design, elevate your space. Doesn’t have loud noise compared to the normal countertop ice machine. I usually am very strict with the quality of water and ice intake, so I’m glad that this has been my ultimate ice maker WITH water filter that doesn’t rust. Have different light mode and can connect through wifi. Use the same filter as the coffee machine

A stylish, easy-to-use ice maker that produces perfect nugget ice in just 10 minutes.

Where's the side tank?
This is my 2nd ge profile ice machine. My first one's grinding and squeeling noise came back and wouldn't go away after cleaning. It felt like a total letdown when opening the new box and there was no side water tank included like my first one.

Obsessed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this crushed ice maker. It makes ice so quickly and isn’t too noisy like most ice makers. It’s also not so heavy which makes it easy to move it from place to place. The ice comes out perfect.

Fun addition to my kitchen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fits nicely under the cabinet. Setup was easy and I really enjoy the size of the ice pebbles. It makes throwing ice in my Stanley for the day so much easier in the morning than pulling out a bag of ice from the freezer.

Amazing Nugget Ice Maker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the shared tank capacity and ice production! It makes ice so quickly, so if I ever forget to refill the tank, I still have ice 10 minutes later! The nugget ice is perfectly crunchy and the best for soda and coffee drinks! It’s a great addition to my drink bar in the dining room, providing a more upscale experience for hosting & making me feel fancy every time I get some ice for my regular drinks. I can see this saving me money on fun dri...

Good ice maker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a good nugget ice maker. It’s a bit bulky of a product and the first pieces of ice that come out are a bit soupy and not fully frozen. It does have a large capacity for ice but doesn’t make much at all time.

Makes so much ice
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love nugget ice so was so excited to try this! My fridge has an ice maker but just doesn’t make enough ice. This once surprisingly hold quite a bit of ice without it melting. I love that it’s right on the counter so it’s convenient to grab ice whenever I need it. It’s so easy to fill up the water and make ice. I love that it’s compatible with the coffee brewpal machine. One thing to note it’s EXTREMELY heavy. You will need someone to help you...

Love Having Nugget Ice at Home!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really happy with this Nugget Ice Maker. It makes nugget ice pretty quickly, and the ice has that soft, chewable texture I love. The Wi-Fi feature is also really convenient because I can control and monitor it from my phone. I also like that it comes with a scale-inhibiting filter, which helps keep the machine cleaner and makes maintenance easier. It’s easy to use, looks great on the counter, and the ice scoop is a nice bonus. Overall, it’...

Sleek Design
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very sleek design, I was worried it would take up too much space on my counters but it looks so nice and matches all my appliances. Instructions to set up were easy and the ice started to come out very fast. The little scooper magnet is a nice touch! Easy to use and set up and I love having the small ice right there.

Much better than freezer ice!!
Would RecommendSolid ice machine. Perfect size for our family of four. We use distilled water and the ice always tastes great. The machine routinely requests that you sanitize and descale, so that gets a little old. Not hard to do just takes some time. You will need to purchase extra filters and descaling powder from GE.

Great Ice Maker bit lots of parts
Would RecommendThis model is quite a bit better than the older model as it offers the metal scooper with holder. There is the addition of an air filter as well as a seperate replaceable internal filter which I’m assuming will help with the longevity of the unit. I love the appliance but not looking forward to locating the replacement filters.

I love the ice size.
Would RecommendThis ice maker is still making a whining noise right after cleaning and descaling. I find that really annoying.
