Can you say "eye candy?" This ice maker might be the most aesthetically pleasing appliance ever. (GE)(Amazon)
"Fancy" kitchen appliances are not for everyone. If your AeroPress keeps you caffeinated in the morning, no need to splurge on a big old espresso machine. And if your personal blender suits your needs, a Vitamix might not be necessary. But if there's one thing many of us can't get enough of — especially during the summer — it's ice. And if your fridge's ice maker isn't cutting it — let alone if it doesn't even have one — GE's Profile Opal 2.0 is the viral-phenom, top-shelf solution you need. And it's on mega-sale for Amazon Prime Day — that's our idea of a guilt-free splurge.
Many a TikToker has declared their love of this high-tech contraption, which produces irresistibly chewy nugget-style ice (or, "fancy ice," as one reviewer called it). Needless to say, it's a hot-ticket item, which is why we're super excited to see it marked down.
(While we're on the subject of saving, we Yahoo shopping editors have been working around the clock to bring you the very best Prime Day deals. We're comparing prices, checking sale histories, the whole shebang, because the last thing you want to do is spend your precious time weeding out all of the "meh" discounts to find the worthwhile ones. Oh, and if you're particularly interested in more Prime Day kitchen deals, yours truly — a former professional baker — found some really good picks.)
Grab it before this deal is toast — the price on this popular model usually won't go much lower.
This No. 1 bestseller is over 60% off — one of its lowest prices ever — and comes with just about every type of blade a home cook could need. Henckels has been crafting quality knives for over a century, so you can rest assured they know what they're doing.
Resolving to make getting a good night's sleep a priority this year? You'll want some comfy pillows to rest your head on, and this cloud-like pair is priced right at nearly 70% off! Not only that, these pillows were designed to strike just the right balance between soft and supportive, and they're made from a moisture-wicking material to help banish night sweats.
"These pillows are exactly what I've been looking for!" shared a relieved sleeper. "I slept on one last night, and for the first time in a very long time, I woke up with no neck pain! I have three bulging disks in my neck, so it's been hard to find just the right pillow. It's firm but not too firm, holds its shape and adjusts when you reposition yourself; it automatically fluffs up to accept your new position. Wonderful. I can't say enough good things about this pillow!"
Gardening season is just around the corner, and these No. 1 bestselling pruning shears were designed to slice through stems like nobody's business. Made of durable stainless steel, the blades have a low-friction coating and a self-cleaning sap groove to help prevent sticking, and the nonslip handles offer a secure grip.

Plus, it works up to 70% faster than other cooking methods, meaning dinner will be on the table in a snap.
This cushy comforter, which has tabs and can double as a duvet insert, was designed for all-season use, keeping you cozy yet cool during the warmer months and toasty come winter. Box stitching helps keep the fluffy filling evenly distributed.

Easy access to these irresstible nuggets for $200 off? That's like striking gold.
This solution targets mineral and calcium buildup to de-scale the machine inside and out. This will help it run smoothly and produce better-tasting ice, and it even comes with its own scrubber.
"Every so many months you have to use this solution to clean your ice maker," explained a reviewer. "No way around it. However, the end result is when the ice tastes like when you first got the ice maker."
You're saving just over $200 with this Prime Day sale, which brings this sought-after appliance down to its best price of the year — and very close to its lowest price of all time (our trackers tell us it was briefly $449 back in December). If your household goes through a lot of ice, this will save you a ton of time and headache, which is pretty priceless!
Those of us without ice-making refrigerators usually have to rely on those flimsy trays that never seem to want to release the cubes and take a long time to freeze. A countertop ice maker, on the other hand, lets you have ice on demand, and the GE Opal is super speedy.
How speedy? Well, it can crank out 1.6 pounds per hour, or 38 pounds per day, according to the manufacturer. Plus, it can hold up to 3 pounds of ice at a time. That's a lot of really iced tea!
As mentioned, the ice itself is of the nugget variety, which many of us enjoy crunching on at restaurants but rarely have access to at home. To get your freeze on, you'll just fill the attached reservoir with water (it's quite large, so you won't have to refill very often). From there, just hit the power button and you're in business. Oh, and any melted water gets delivered back to the reservoir to help keep the ice from forming large clumps.
As I said, this machine is pretty high-tech, but not in an intimidating way. Reviewers say the SmartHQ app, which can be used to schedule ice production, is user-friendly, and you can even pair it with Alexa and Google if you want to operate it via voice control.
This ice device has melted many an Amazon customer's heart.
"Absolutely love this little machine!" exclaimed one shopper. "Big fan of chewy ice, and after only enjoying it from the few restaurants and convenience stores that sell drinks with it, I finally have delicious chewy ice at home. Easy setup, and [I] quickly have enough ice to satisfy my family."
"I am really enjoying this ice maker," shared another. "I live alone, had a full refrigerator with no freezer inside my house and had to go to the garage to get ice. This little icemaker is a workhorse, and the ice is wonderful. It stays frozen, you can chew it, it’s like restaurant ice. It makes a ton. I was scared of the cleaning, but it didn’t have any trouble whatsoever; [it] was quick and easy."
"The smart app is amazing," raved a third. "I travel, and like the fact that I’m able to create a schedule and turn the ice maker on/off through the app. It was very easy to set up and it’s also easy to maintain."
One common complaint? The noise. "I love this device for the ice," shared one user. "But it’s the loudest machine I have owned. I find myself from time to time just powering it off so I don’t have to hear it for a bit. Great ice, though!"
"It is a tad noisy," agreed a final fan, "but well worth the return." They added, "This is one of my greatest purchases. Makes every beverage with ice better. ... Fancy ice rules!"
