What reviewers say
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
GE Profile Opal 2.0 Nugget Ice Maker (XPIO13SCSS)
Only one whitelisted tester, Reviewed (USA Today), published a hands-on lab test of this exact model (the 2025 Opal 2.0 with XL side tank). Reviewer Jonathan Chan praises crisp, clean-tasting chewable nugget ice, quiet operation, well-implemented automatic refill and the SmartHQ app, but flags slow ~1 lb/hour output and a $600 full price. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Crisp, clean-tasting nugget ice with good crunchy-but-soft mouthfeel; Quiet operation; Well-implemented automatic refill plus magnetic side tank for ~3x more ice.
Flagged: Slow ice production (~1 lb/hour), slower than competitors; Expensive at ~$600 full price; Ice clumps after ~48 hours; needs monthly cleaning and daily water changes.
