Love the ice the only complaint it shuts down by itself

Hello - Thank you so much for taking out some time to connect and share your review. We are glad that you are enjoying the delicious nugget ice. However, we are sorry about it shutting down on you.
We recommend trying an electronic reset to help this. You can do this by removing the power cord for 30 seconds and then plugging it back in. This helps in the case that the electronic controls are having any hiccups.
Let us know if you have any other questions, we're always here to help. - Jonathon@GEA
Hit and miss. Might work, might not. Can be very loud. Customer service is a nightmare

Our family has been on the lookout for an ice maker that checked all of our boxes. Crunchy ice, small size, quick and looked good on the counter. This machine does it all. I would enthusiastically recommend the Opal to anyone who wants an ice maker.
3sorry to say the ice maker worked a little but kept stopping and would not make any ice. Since this was a gift I do not have receipt and this is not covered under warranty.

Good afternoon,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on your Opal ice maker. We are so sorry to hear that the unit is no longer producing ice as this is certainly not normal operation, nor the quality that we expect.
We recommend cleaning and descaling your Opal when this happens. You can find all of the instructions on how to do so on pages 7-9 at the link below:
If you continue to experience issues with your Opal, we recommend reaching out to Opal Support at 1-866-907-6718, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM, EST.
We are on our second ice maker and it has failed after 3 years and 4 months of use. Our first unit lasted 14 months. We purchased a second unit after the first one failed because we loved the ice. This will be our last time purchasing this ice maker. We only use distilled water. We clean the unit frequently.

If I could give it 0 stars I would. I have had this ice maker for 6 months and it no longer works. Despite having a 1 year warranty, they refuse to replace it.
