If you love nugget ice and want to have it everyday at your own home, you need the GE Profile™ Opal™ Nugget Ice Maker 2.0! It is made to sit on top of any counter, it's portable and there is no installation or water hook-ups required! You just clean it out, plug it in, fill the water reservoir and then in 20 minutes, you have ice! The ice bin is a good size as it holds 3 lbs. of ice. I have mine in my kitchen on a countertop, but I think it would be great in a covered outdoor kitchen or an awesome addition to an at home bar as well. My kids cannot get enough of this ice and it's so much easier to fill up their water bottles with this ice vs. the ice from your refrigerator ice maker. I cannot say enough good things about this ice maker, if you want to make the switch to nugget ice and you want a dependable brand, you cannot go wrong with the Opal™ Nugget Ice Maker 2.0 by GE Profile™.
