I love my ice maker. I use to purchase bags of ice several times a week. I grew up on the chewy ice and when I discovered I could have this type of ice anytime I was thrilled. Best investment I made.
This thing is a champ, give it good clean water and it seems to last for awhile. The only issue I've ever had was software and when it happened they promptly replaced within 2 weeks.
This is a great ice maker. I've had one since it was in development before GE bought the Opal brand. The machine is pretty quiet and requires little maintenance.
Best thing I've ever purchased!! The best ice. Not too loud and fits nicely on my counter top.
Had high hopes. Friend has it and loves it. Ours would not pump water.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback. We are so sorry to hear that your new Opal icemaker is experiencing issues. We know how frustrating this must be. We would like to gather some further information from you. An agent will be reaching out to you via email. Please respond to the email at your earliest convenience. We are looking forward to connecting with you. - Adrian@GEA
We love our new nugget ice maker! We use it daily and it does a great job of keeping up with the demand in our house. I would recommend getting the external water storage container. The only downside is that it is VERY noisy when its making ice. Every time you remove any ice from the machine it gets back to work and boy do you hear it! Otherwise, we love it.
I, and family members, have been woken up in the middle of the night by this machine multiple times. It's always in the defrosting mode when it's loud. It sounds like the motor is being burned out. It's unfortunate because I LOVE the nugget ice it makes. It doesn't seem like it's a very smart machine. I feel like it should automatically shut off when need be. I have not used the app on my phone, so maybe there's something there I'm not seeing. The frequency the machine suggests to be sanitized or descaled is ridiculous. One a week, is super annoying. It starts to make ice within 20 mins, which is impressive. The ice is soft and is a great alternative to snack on rather than chips (why I bought it). I want to return the machine tho, too noisy!!!!

My son-in-law surprised me with this awesome icemaker! He knew what fan I was of Sonic ice!!! You won't believe how convenient it is to make ice & not to have to go to Sonic! Best gift ever except getting such a terrific son-in-law!
This was a replacement sent to me by GE after my first unit quit. So far it is working fine. It took months before they finally replaced it.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.

30-Day Returns
