GE Profile Opal 2.0 XL Countertop Nugget Ice Maker with 1 Gallon Tank

I’ve seen too many companies operate like this lately, and GE seems to be following the same playbook. I ironically bought this from Amazon — and this ice maker isn’t cheap. On the outside it looks sleek, but inside it’s completely rotten: false warnings, random stops and starts, terrifying squeals, and general unreliability. Customer service was a complete disaster. I was just a month past the one-year warranty, and the representative refused to help, offered no solutions, and eventually hung up. No accountability, no concern — just cold corporate scripts protecting GE’s profits. This appliance is all style and no substance. Expensive, flashy, and fundamentally broken. If you value your time, or money, do not buy this. GE clearly cares more about profit than quality or customer experience. Amazon too? They haven't weighed in!

I love, love, love my Opal icemaker! It was expensive, but I saved up to buy one after I saw one at my friend's house. It is so neat! It makes the ice like you get in your drink at Sonic. It's tiny and crunchy and perfect for all my drinks. It is a little bit noisy, but it only runs until the ice bin is full, then it stops on its own. I imagine I could empty the bin into another container to keep in my freezer so I could have tons and tons of this great ice to use at a party. The bin on the icemaker doesn't hold a lot, so when the item description says it will make 38 pounds in 24 hours, I would HAVE to do that. The place where you pour in water (without the side tank) isn't very big and would only support filling the bin up about halfway. You need the side tank or you'll be filling it up every hour or so. I like that I can turn the light off or have it bright or dim. I haven't messed with the WiFi or voice control, so I can't speak to that. I don't know why anyone would give it fewer than 5 stars. Buy one! You'll like it.

I did a lot of research on machines for the house. I looked at multiple units, some that required a drain. I had a smaller Frigidaire but it required constantly filling the water during the day and although it claimed to make 26 lbs during the day, it was a slow and tedious process in getting to the 26 lbs. The ice also melted extremely fast even in a Yeti cup. I am extremely happy with this GE Profile and even though the ice is smaller (and in larger amounts), it lasts longer compared to the larger cubes from the Frigidaire in my Yeti. Some things to note, it does have some noise to it. But not enough to bother me and it was relatively the same as the Frigidaire unit. I did read the comments and someone mentioned scheduling it to turn on and off in the middle of the night to keep continuous ice making. I guess if it stops, it melts quit a bit. Stopping and restarting helps. I love the fact I can leave this on continuously. I do like the App feature, but rarely use it honestly but it’s a nice to have for sure. And finally, I don’t have arguments with the family of 5 on why we don’t always have ice. The side XL unit is an absolute MUST. Although we got the side unit, we STILL go through a lot of jugs of water. In the heat of Texas, of course we should be using it quite a bit. And USE DISTILLED WATER. Do your research on WHY to use Distilled. Makes a difference. Flavor, of course will be different than drinking water but we use filtered water from our refrigerator along with our Distilled Ice and scaling will be reduced significantly if at all. The beauty of this unit is that I don't have to clean as much using distilled water, I don't have to drain often, and I can leave it on constantly. Couldn’t be happier at the moment with this purchase

WHEN THE ICE MAKER WORKS IT WAS GREAT. SUPER DISAPPOINTING THAT IT ONLY WORKED FOR ABOUT A MONTH AFTER PURCHASE. CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE. THEY EXPECT YOU TO KEEP A HUGE BOX LYING AROUND THE HOUSE FOR AN INDEFINATE PERIOD OF TIME SO THAT YOU CAN SEND IT BACK TO THEM IN ITS ORIGINAL PACKAGING SO THEY WILL HONOUR THE WARRANTY. I AM ON THE HOOK FOR 'DAMAGES' THAT MIGHT HAPPEN WHEN I AM MAILING IT BACK TO THEM TO FIX IT. IT WEIGHS ALMOST 50 POUNDS. I CAN NOT FIND ANY LOCAL PLACE TO WARRANTY IT. NO ONE FIXES SMALL APPLIANCES ANY MORE. IT IS VERY NICE LOOKING, BUT WHAT THEY ARE DOING ON THE INSIDE OF IT, IT IS SUPER UNRELIABLE. THEY ALSO SHIPPED ME A DIFFERENT PRODUCT THAN THEY DELIVERED TO ME. THE INVOICE DOESN'T MATCH THE PRODUCT. I AM TRYING TO GET THAT FIXED BEFORE I SEND THEM ANYTHING. BRUTAL CUSTOMER SERVICE. DO NOT PURCHASE
