Opel Nugget Ice Machine
We love our Opel Nugget Ice Maker.. it fast so you never run out of ice. Looks great in our beverage center, and we always use distilled water which is the best for an ice machine so we don’t have internal calcium buildup..!!

The Best Purchase I’ve Made for My Kitchen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you love nugget ice, this machine is a dream. The GE Profile Opal 2.0 delivers perfect, soft, chewable nugget ice every single time. It looks sleek, feels well-built, and runs way quieter and smoother than I expected. The side tank is super convenient, the ice production is fast, and it keeps up easily with a busy household. From cold drinks to smoothies to daily water, this elevated everything. Easily one of my favorite appliances. Highly recommend without hesitation.

The good ice no the best ice !
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me say that this really is the good ice . My only mistake was buying a generic one at first only to learn that nothing compares to the ge brand. I decided to spend a little extra and let me tell you this machine is worth every penny. The ice is amazing quality

Been waiting my whole life for this!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ever since I found out it was possible to have a legit nugget ice maker in my home, I have longed for one. Finally 2025 was the year! It was a bit heavier than I expected. But I was still able to maneuver it into the house. The box opens around the bottom like a TV or other large appliance. I'm glad that I read the instructions and watched some YouTube videos about how everything worked and the cleaning process. I'm a bit disappointed at how often It's recommended that I clean it and don't know why they don't have a better system than popping the two tubes out and back into the plastic piece to drain it. Seems chinczy for such an expensive item. I would expect a nice quick disconnect drain hose with an on/off valve. The website said it didn't come with the filter so I ordered one. There was one in the box so I thought that was the one I ordered. But then another on showed up two weeks later? No complaints as the filters are quite expensive. I'm not a fan of pouring bleach into something that I intend to eat/drink out of. So I used vinegar as it cleans and descales and isn't poison. Hopefully that will be OK.
I love the ice. It's just like Chick-fil-a. It makes it quick, it stays for several hours in the tray. then recycles the water as it melts back into the reservoir for reuse. I don't like having to take out the ice drawer to refill the reservoir, but that's better than if it was top fill, because the Opal barely fits under my cabinet. The reservoir seems to hold enough water to fill the drawer twice. I didn't get the external tank. I'm the only person who craves it in my home. So the internal reservoir is adequate.
Be aware that it needs space to breath on the sides and I'm glad that I bought the quietist one, because we can still hear the fans and such a little bit in our living room. It's not as loud as our dishwasher.
The phone app works great. I wish that the button labels on the front were legible at all. It takes a bright flashlight at just the right angle to see them. That's really stupid. If text is so offensive to the aesthetic, just put icons or something. But make them readable. Otherwise the buttons are worthless.
I still don't understand why GE hasn't come out with a fridge that makes nugget ice. I just replaced all of our appliances and would have absolutely bought the opal model if one was available.

Best Machine Ever
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best purchase our office could have made! We did a ton of research on ice machines, and this was the most recommended on the market; Reddit was right! The ice is so crunchy, it is such a quiet machine (literally never makes a sound), it took only a few minutes to install after cleaning, and it makes SO much ice! I feel like we haven't run out once since purchasing. It fits perfectly on the counter, and the side tank attachment doesn't add much to it (size wise). The price is worth it--you'll probably never have to replace an ice machine again!

5 years great ice
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had our first Opal ice make for over five years of continuous use without any problems. Great ice every day. It was a bit squeaky for a few months in the beginning but that went away. We did clean it once a month which is a good amount of work but worth it. It finally quit working and we ordered a new one even though it probably could have been repaired. We are very happy with that purchase.

If you want the “good ice”, this is it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We could not be happier with this ice maker. It is seriously expensive, but if you really want the “good ice”, this is it! Makes plenty of ice, not too noisy, not too big… just perfect for us.

Our first opal 2. Ice maker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wife and I hooked it up. She was reading the instructions. Didn't take more than 15 minutes. Cleaning it out three times was the hardest thing actually and the time consuming but needed to be done.

Good Deal & makes a lot of ice fast!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my 3rd countertop ice maker. It is a bit more than what I spent on others, But, It is worth every penny! It makes ice quickly, and its pretty quite. it only takes up about 2 inches more the other countertop models I've had, but its a way better designed ice maker. Its makes LOTS of wonderfully crunchy nuggets. No more running out of Ice or running to the store to buy the continuously shrinking pounds bagged Ice. The ice "bucket" holds a nice amount & refills quick. Set up is quick and easy. Just clean it, than run a few ice making cycles and toss the first two batches and now your are ready to enjoy a cold cocktail or cooler fill-up ! This little ice makers is going to be a game changer for next years Pool Parties!!!

We love the ice, so does the dog
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is our second Opal ice maker, this version is much quiter and fiils the ice nearly twice as fast. The side tank is a godsend and the unit is very easy to clean. The only problem is that when someone fills a glass, the dog wants to munch some too.

Best Ice Machine All Around
Love this ice machine. I've owned two now as my daughter stole the original one we had when she left hime for good. Then a second one I bought to replace it. They are both still running smooth as ever. Easy maintenance, easy to use, great ice size and great buy all together. The capacity of ice in hand is perfect for a get together or just drinks with friends. Noise is minimal the loudest is barely noticeable and installation is a breeze. Best ice machine on the market! Recommend!
