What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the exceptional nugget ice quality, describing it as crunchy, restaurant-style, and perfect for beverages. Many highlight fast production within 10-20 minutes and the sleek stainless steel design. The app integration for remote control and scheduling impresses reviewers. However, a notable group reports persistent noise issues and reliability concerns, with some units failing within two years. Regular descaling every six weeks is required. Despite drawbacks, most customers prioritize the superior ice experience and convenience, considering it worthwhile.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works extremely well. Takes some time to correctly set up and sanitize (and rinse!), but once it's done it makes the best ice in 10 minutes flat. Less noisy than I thought it would be based on the other reviews -- yes you can hear it, but it's quieter than an air fryer.

SweepstakesQuieter than original
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Day 1 of having my new ice maker. Comparing it to the original Opal, I will say that this one is much quieter. Which owls what I wanted. After 5 years, our original finally stopped making ice but not before it started making horrible loud noises. I like that this newer model is much quieter and a bit smaller. However, the downside seems to be that the water reservoir is smaller. Day one and the tank is already half empty.

Loud bangs
Would Not RecommendMy son bought this for me for a Christmas present. Thinking since it was GE and that it was expensive that it would be a good reliable product. After 1 year it got really loud and looked it up and the compressor has to be thawed out. I have to do this weekly along with cleaning. Now after a year and a half it now just hums with no ice. This is a piece of junk and definitely not worth the money.

Great ice. Not very friendly.
Would RecommendWe love the ice and really can't live without it. Unfortunately, it's a really complicated relationship with the machine. This is our second one in three years because the previous one began to conk out. Did everything I could to save it, but it just wouldn't cooperate. For the new one, it was a great first couple of weeks but then the scale inhibiting filter disrupted the water flow, causing the machine to constantly say that it needed more water when it had plenty. So we had to remove the scal...

Squeeking always comes back after cleaning
Would Not RecommendWe have had this icemaker for eight months, and I bought the products to clean it whenever it tells me to clean. Right after I cleaned it, it goes back to its squeaking sound. I have tried everything to get rid of the sound, but nothing has worked. I am very displeased with how much time I have put into trying to get it working again.

Metal dust
I received this ice maker from a dear friend that passed away soon after in a car accident. Within a month of using it it began making an awful screeching and grinding noise. I would unplug it and reset the unit at which time it would make one bucket of ice before the screeching would resume again. This has gotten to the point that there seems to be metal dust in the water bin causing me to no longer use the unit . For the money that was spent I would expect much better quality than this
