GE Profile Opal Carbon Replacement Water Filter for Opal Nugget Ice Maker | Cleans and Filters Water for Fresh Ice | Replace Every 3 Months for Best Results | Easy Install | Pack of 1

This GE Profile Opal replacement water filter does exactly what it’s supposed to do, and it does it well. If you own an Opal nugget ice maker, this is one of those maintenance items that’s easy to overlook, but it makes a noticeable difference in ice quality when you stay on top of it. Installation couldn’t be easier. The filter is clearly designed for the Opal, slides right into place, and locks in without any forcing or confusion. It’s a true drop-in replacement, which is appreciated when you’re just trying to do routine upkeep and not troubleshoot fitment issues. Performance is where it really matters, and this filter delivers. The ice tastes clean and fresh, with no odd flavors or odors, even if your tap water isn’t perfect. Nugget ice absorbs flavors easily, so having a good filter in place is important, and this one does a solid job of improving overall water quality. You can tell the difference, especially if you’ve gone too long between filter changes before. Replacing it every three months feels about right. By that point, you can usually tell the filter has done its job, and swapping it out keeps the machine running at its best. Regular changes also help protect the ice maker itself by reducing mineral buildup, which can extend the life of a pretty expensive appliance. Build quality feels good for what it is. It doesn’t feel flimsy or cheaply made, and it seals properly without leaks. It’s clearly designed specifically for this machine rather than being a generic filter repurposed to fit. While it’s not the cheapest filter out there, it’s worth it for peace of mind and consistent ice quality. This isn’t an area where cutting corners makes much sense, especially when you’re using the ice daily for drinks, entertaining, or just because nugget ice is hard to give up once you’re used to it. Overall, this is a reliable, easy-to-install replacement filter that keeps the Opal ice maker performing the way it should. Clean-tasting ice, simple maintenance, and proper fit make this an easy five-star product for anyone who owns a GE Profile Opal.

Works great.

Love my opal ice machine! These filters are a great precise and do exactly as needed. Replace mine every couple months abbés my ice cubes stay perfect.

Perfect filter for my icemaking machine. It worked perfectly.

I want to believe this is doing what it needs to be doing to clean the water and keep the machine from building up with hard water deposits, but not yet sure. It definitely reduces water flow but it doesn’t seem to impact ice production directly. I already use filtered water for the machine so this was an additional protection barrier.

Our water has been contaminated for a while, keep getting those letters from the water board. So this filter saved me. 2nd time buying and looooove the way the ice tastes.

Great

I can't tell if it makes the ice taste or look any better, have been using for years, but may stop just to save money (Vermont tap water)
