Bought the old one many years ago and it had lasted years, bought this one in March and it's already not working.

I love the ice but it’s already having problems after less than 2 weeks. I don’t hold out much hope it will last too long and for the cost that’s not acceptable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We'd like to assist you with your Opal not operating properly. One of our team members will contact you via email shortly to gather more details. Kindly reply at your earliest convenience.
This is the 2nd replacement unit on the icemaker. I do not know what the issue is that GE can not get these units to work correctly. This particular unit will not make nugget ice, it is more of a slush type ice and the unit will not start producing more ice until the ice bin is almost fully melted. The bright side is that at least this unit does not sound like a horror movie happening in my kitchen.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Worked really good for almost 2 months then stopped making ice. Very disappointing considering the cost.

We are very sorry to hear you're having these issues with your Opal and recommend cleaning it if you haven't already. You can view this on page 7 in the manual. https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--AiJBlztZ--/a9b8da8c3d74eaee0fd0dfeb858c7928b055fd2e.pdf In the meantime we will be reaching out to you via email to get a little more information.
We have been looking for the perfect ice maker, and we found an opal nugget ice maker. It's small, fits right into our countertop, and is very convenient. The way it makes ice in just under 30 minutes is incredible. We are delighted and can't ask for anything better than this ice maker. We can track it on our phone because of its Wi-Fi capability. Easy to descale and keep functioning.
