Water stains

Our water is a little on the hard side. Most appliances can be wiped off easily. The finish on this ice maker seems to bond to the acale. Can't get it to come clean. Looks bad.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great ice!! Wifi wonderful upgrade.

The product makes great ice and GE has improved the product since the original. The "sonic" or nugget ice is perfect. The upgrade to WIFI is a great improvement from the original. The product can be scheduled and controlled through an app from anywhere in the world. GE includes the external water fill unit with the product. This allows you to remove the water container and fill the container from the sink without filling a pitcher and carrying water to the ice maker. Since this unit was just upgraded in July 2020, almost all the reviews are from the original Opal. The Opal 2.0 solves almost all the problems with the original unit. The auger system does produce a steady low level machine noise when making ice. Once the ice bin is full, the unit is dead quiet. The ice maker makes about one pound of ice per hour and holds about three pounds of ice. This would be suitable for small gatherings.

Great Product/s

This product is pricey, but I think worth every penny. I use it everyday and love that it makes the kind of ice that you get a sonic. The ice is small and soft and easy the eat.

The Opal has been fantastic and exactly what we needed in a household that loves ice! We never have an issue with keeping up with demand and would recommend this product to anyone who consider themselves fans of Sonic ice!

Good fast ice

Easy to set up, fast producing fun little ice has been given the nickname “Angel Ice” by guests.
There are pictures in the product description of three ice types, but the machine only makes one of those.

Fast and consistent!

Skeptical at first, quickly changed our minds as we were enjoying “sonic” type ice within an hour of plugging it in. The only downside is that the scoop is a bit difficult to use and almost always end up with a few pieces of ice on the counter. I would suggest a fold down front on the ice bin to make it easier and cleaner to get the ice with the scoop.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Bomb!
on September 23, 2020
Posted by: runjunky
from Burbank, Ca
My wife has a crush on sonic ice. This is the closest we have come to that product, and it's the bomb. The only word of caution I would offer, is this. Follow the directions for cleaning religiously. Water is full of minerals that WILL eventually cause you issues.
We ran ours for about 18 months before sediment built up. It took a couple of days of cleaning cycle with vinegar to remedy. We then invested in a side tank and added the water filter and regularly clean it (although still not as often as we should), and it's had no further issues. I can't imagine a future where we don't have this machine.
