Overview
Profile builds this countertop machine around a batch system that freezes and compacts ice flakes into soft nugget pieces. Water goes into a top-fill reservoir on the unit, the machine recirculates and filters it through each cycle, and finished ice drops into the removable bin. The drain and dry routine clears leftover water between batches.
Soft chewable nugget ice is the reason to look here, and the compact body means it can live on a counter without taking over the kitchen. What holds it back is the small bin and the manual reservoir: this is a batch appliance, not a plumbed supply, so someone has to keep an eye on water and ice levels.
Who it's for
Countertop owners who want nugget ice without a built-in machine and have room beside the sink. Skip it if the machine must connect to a water line or hold ice for a crowd through the day.
Pros and cons
- Makes soft, chewable nugget ice
- Top-fill reservoir skips bin removal
- Compact footprint fits tight counters
- WiFi app schedules batches and alerts
- Bin capacity is small for parties
- Water refills are manual
- Ice maker is not a refrigerator
Performance notes
Result depends on the batch system: water is filtered and recirculated, frozen into flakes, then compacted into nuggets that drop into the bin. Output holds up when the reservoir stays filled and the unit is descaled on schedule; mineral buildup and low water slow production.

Frequently asked questions
How do I clean the Profile Opal Mini ice maker?
The unit has an advanced cleaning system that sanitizes and descales when used regularly, and the box includes six descaling powder packets. Front panel storage holds the packets, and the drain and dry system clears excess water between cycles so buildup is reduced.
What comes in the box with the Opal Mini?
The ice maker, a drip tray, a plastic scoop with a scoop holder, and six descaling powder packets. No water line or plumbing parts are included because the reservoir fills from the top.
Does the Opal Mini ice maker need a water line?
No. It uses a top-fill water reservoir, so refills happen by hand without removing the ice bin. That also means production stops when the reservoir runs dry.
Can I control the Opal Mini from my phone?
Yes. Built-in WiFi and SmartHQ app compatibility allow scheduling ice production, maintenance alerts, software updates and accessory orders, and voice control works with Amazon and Google devices.
