Thank you so much it’s December 27, 2023 two days after Christmas. I’m just now waiting to plug My Frigidaire EFIC288 icemaker in can’t wait to taste my ice . I’ve been wanting one of these forever. Actually I wanted the GE opal but we have to get what we could afford so we’re hoping this ice machine does the job, thank you very for a very nice review. I will come back and let you know how my ice turned out.🎄💙👋🏻12-27-23

It's nice seeing other brands making these nugget ice makers, but I still love my Profile. I got it back in July 2020 and the main unit is still going strong. The side tank, unfortunately stopped supplying water to the main unit recently.

Does it still work with the side tank not working?

@twospirits411 8 ай бұрын

@@007NateNasty the machine works without the side tank. The only downside is more frequent refilling the main water tank. But I managed to fix the side tank issue by blowing air into the hose ( after removing the water of course).

I saw a video where the ge reservoir can be used on either side.

I’ll stick to my Frigidaire clear ice maker. Keeps drinks super cold for hours without watering it down. I can grind Pepsi 30 minutes later and still tastes like it came out of the bottle

GE Profile 2.0, luckily we bought ours at Best Buy. It broke just before the manufacturer warranty expired (6 months). BB gave us an option to get a new one or a full refund. They don’t bother to fix it and if you read up on GE website, they don’t sell parts for it. It’s considered a “disposable” unit. That meaning if it breaks, it’s trash!! There’s a common problem on the Opal 2.0 forum. It’s 100% true. Great ice!! Best to use Distilled Water!! Even filter water will leave deposits and you’ll have to do a deeper cleaning. Watch you tube videos about the deposit buildup 🤢 We had no buildup with distilled water. Cheap at Walmart, we bought the ones in the Baby section. $a buck something. 👍🏽👍🏽 Great ice but not very reliable. It’s a gamble on reliability

The GE 2.0 has an app for setting ice making schedules as well as supporting Alexa and Google Assistant so you can control it with your voice. When I'm out for a run with 20 mins remaining, I tell my Galaxy Watch 6, "Hey Google, turn on opal" and fresh ice is ready when I get home.

@double5bbq Ай бұрын

I went through 3 Opals, Gen 1 as well. It worked fine for a while but would start churning out black bits of garbage into the ice and bin. I took the cover off and found it rife with mold. GE tried to tell me it wasn’t mold but the internal reservoir was right over the compressor along all the heat. So that was complete BS. They gave me another and it waited till the warranty was up to start doing the same. During this time, I was fastidious about doing the proper sanitation and cleaning methods. GE was kind enough to work with me and get me a third machine, even though it was out of warranty. I never opened it but immediately sold it and got whatever money I could back out of it. I have heard that their second generation moved the reservoir to a different spot so it’s not right over the compressor. I hope that works. I’m interested in long-term review of the Frigidaire to see if it becomes a problem as well.

@jamessimmons8352 Ай бұрын

Yep. Mine is 17 months old. Used only distilled water for ice. Tap water for sterilizing with bleach. Ice machine descaler, even though no scale with distilled water. Now the unit makes horrible squealing when running. Not very serviceable, and replacement parts non existent. I’m past ge warranty, but may return it / replace it under Best Buy extended warranty. These are poorly designed. Great when they work, but not durable.

I have the original Opal from first build (before they sold to GE) and it’s still running strong.
