What we liked

  • + Listed output of up to 36 lbs per day, with a first batch in 5 minutes or less.
  • + Compact 8.6 by 15.6 by 14.56 inch body is listed as 30 percent smaller than the original Opal.
  • + WiFi and SmartHQ app support for scheduling ice production and maintenance alerts.

Trade-offs

  • - Top-fill reservoir and a 2 lb bin mean more frequent refills than a side-tank model.
  • - At $299 it costs more than many non-GE nugget makers.
