How Does it Work?
Traditional ice makers freeze water into a hard ice cube. Opal nugget ice is made by scraping the ice flakes off the inside of a chilled stainless steel cylinder. The flakes are extruded through a round hole, compacting them into chewable nuggets like a snowball.

Absolutely the worst icemaker and the WORST support. Even purchased the 5 year replacement from amazon and they dont honor it.
But Hey, the family and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the ice, it really delivers. Perfect Sonic Nugget ice, makes it pretty quick too.
Look, its a $500 machine, that is, for me, very very annoying.
The squeals and squeaks from my unit, are unbearable, I have attached a video. BUYER BEWARE, and get an extended warranty! Which I will when I get my replacement unit.
OPAL Will not repair or replace without “video proof”
Well here it is....
Now, as far as the ice maker goes - it has worked flawlessly for the past week. Not one single problem. It makes perfect nugget ice and quickly too! I am glad that I chose this version (GE Profile) instead of the 1ST BUILD one as the all stainless look is much nicer and this version includes the additional water reservoir. It also includes a 1 year warranty by GE when you register the product.
The Bluetooth app is a take-it or leave-it benefit and there are no instructions on how to connect (download the FirstBuild app regardless of the GE name) . I could not get it to work with the latest version of Android and received a warning notice when installing the app that the version may not be compatible (the app is over 2 years old). I was able to connect and schedule ice making using my iPad and the iOS version of the app without any issues. Basically all you can do in the app is schedule when you want it to make ice, if you want the "nite light" and some basic diagnostics. It's not really a big deal if you don't use the app, but scheduling the ice making is a nice benefit.
Overall if you like nugget ice this ice maker is a winner and looks very cool on my countertop - and will impress any ice connoisseur!

I had to research what good ice was and the staying power it had before committing to a $430 prime purchase. The ice is actually pellets about 1/2” long and 1/4” in diameter. It is soft enough to chew and hard enough not to water down pop or vodka.
The other deciding factor for me was the built in cleaning function. So long as I use it weekly as recommended, I’ve not seen mold take hold the way it did in the other style ice makers.
As a bit of a geek, I used the Bluetooth app and set up a run schedule to make life even easier for us.
Even with the price, I have to give this 5 out of 5. Only time will tell how long it will last running 12 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Right or wrong....frugal or wasteful...I decided to save time a money and get an ice machine that makes Sonic ice; my XMAS present to myself.
When the box arrived I was so excited. The box was big but I was able to move it into the kitchen easily with no help. The setup instructions were straightforward and easy to follow. After doing GE's recommended 1st cleaning (which is also easy), the ice marker powered on and got right to work.
Because I have tall cabinets, I couldn't tuck the machine on a kitchen counter with cabinets above, keep alt locations on wheren you'd like to keep the machine in mind. Also, read the instructions on how to work the machine and how the machine works. Because it's so easy to setup, don't be tempted to start making ice until you read. Also, the ice maker isn't obnoxiously loud...to me its an appliance sound. The GE Profile can turn on and off so I have no complaints with the sound.
I'm didn't guve the product five stars because I haven't had it long enough...but so far it's a good investment. No problems to report.
