Love the nugget ice, there is nothing better!
Edit: After several months of not having my nugget ice, I saw the machine on sale for prime day and decided to try it once again. I only had it running for 3 weeks and the pump went out. I was past the 90 day Amazon warranty due to being out of town. working with GE was a nightmare. After several phone calls and emails with repetitive requests for the same information I had just provided, they said they only replaced machines with refurbished ones. Ok, no problem… except the one they sent me looked like the previous owners had it for a year. It was dented, scratched, and had layers of calcium deposits around the dispenser, it hadn’t even been cleaned! I contacted GE again and sent them pictures and said this was unacceptable. They agreed to send me a new one this time. I have been waiting for 2 months now for the replacement. They said they were back ordered, but what they were doing was filling Christmas orders first. I have been without a machine for 6 months now. They won’t refund my money. I even offered to pay the difference to get the new model that came out right after I bought mine hoping they’d worked out the problems in the updated model. Nope. So I am now still waiting for my 6th machine and will only have a partial warranty on it. This has been one of the most regrettable purchases I have ever made.
I think it's the best present she's received from me (much to my surprise). The ice really is fluffy, but chewable. She uses it daily.
The ice takes about 10 minutes for it to get going, but it fills fairly fast so there's plenty more after 30 minutes total.
I'll address the noise; it's loud if you live in a small place. We only run it to make the ice and we never leave it on. But, yes, it's a little loud. Not horrible, and definitely does not impact our 5 star review.
It's a great machine and the ice really is yummy. Great purchase.
It makes quite a bit of noise, and, as a counter top unit, that noise is projected all around the room, unlike a full-size refrigerator or a below-counter ice maker. Depending on the point in the cycle it goes from a noticeable, but not terrible amount of noise, to a loud whir and gurgle combination, to ridiculously loud screaming and grinding sound. When you get to the screaming phase, it needs water. It won't tell you it needs water for another 15 minutes, but it does, and it will quieten down once fed.
It also needs to expel a lot of hot air out one side, the hot air was expected, of course, it is a tiny freezer, but it's one-sided-ness was not. While facing the unit, the right-side rear is the air vent and you do not want to block this. I had to relocate things a bit once I discovered that.
I've had it going for 6 months now w/o issue, I use only RO filtered water in it, so no clogging or cleaning has been required. I have it on a schedule to run from about 8a to 10pm, and there's usually plenty of ice left if you need an 11pm drink. If power is lost to the unit for long enough, it will forget the schedule. WiFi would be better than BT, or at least BLE, the BT range is about 15', so it's only good for setting the schedules. WiFi ( and homeKit and/or an API ) would be a worthwhile upgrade, but hardly necessary.
I did not get the external tank, will probably try to plumb it to the filtered water tap now that it's worked through at least some of the warranty -- as that will void the warranty. If you have more than a couple of people using it, the external tank is probably worthwhile, though expensive for what it is...
