Silonn Ice Maker Countertop, 9 Cubes Ready in 6 Mins 26lbs in 24Hrs, Self-Cleaning Ice Machine with Ice Scoop and Basket, 2 Sizes of Bullet Ice for Home Kitchen Office Bar Party, Black

I've had this ice maker in use for several days now, and I'm very happy with how it performs. I use distilled water to get the best ice, but tap water works nearly as well. The cubes come out nice and clear due to the flowing water as they freeze. The machine regulates itself, so just leave it on, and it will cycle as needed to keep the bin full. Some ice will melt over time, but the water will be recycled into new cubes. The cubes fall out as an array, but poke at them with the scoop and they will easily break apart. The machine does make some noise when running, but it's not very loud and since it's in the kitchen, it's not a problem if it runs in the middle of the night. The unit seems to be well made, and it has stainless steel molds which won't have plating detachment issues as I've read about on other unit's reviews. Other ice makers that produce cloudy ice or mush ice trap the minerals, and will taint the taste of your beverage. Clear ice is the purest and best! Pay attention to the instruction to let it sit 24 hours after setting it up, before you plug it in and turn it on. During shipment and unpacking, the unit may be tilted enough to allow the compressor oil to end up in places other than the crankcase. Letting it sit allows the oil to return to the crankcase. If you plug it in too soon, it could damage the compressor.

UPDATE: We have officially had this for 2.5+ years, and it's STILL working perfectly! Love this ice machine. I rarely write reviews but was just talking about these with a family member and figured I'd give a little review. We bought this in March 2023 for $79 and have definitely gotten our money's worth. It is still going strong and makes consistent ice after the first couple rounds. I find it takes about 2-3 hours to make two full containers that we keep in our freezer. I'd imagine maybe double this if you are looking to fill a small/medium cooler. As many have pointed out (which I had read and understood prior to purchasing), this is NOT a freezer. The ice just sits in a tray. You can say the internal temperature stays "cool" from the ice, so it's not rapidly melting as if you're leaving it on the sidewalk.. but it is WET ice. What we typically do is dump the ice in the freezer.. and after a few minutes of flash freezing OR before dumping the next load, we use an ice pick to break it up so it's not just a giant block. We use this at least once a week but sometimes multiple days during the week and always have ice on hand. It is not completely silent, but the noise is not terribly intrusive to us. It does put off some slight heat from the exhaust fan, but again - nothing intrusive. All in all, we are very happy - and would definitely buy again if this ever stops working. Hope this helps!

We are renovating our kitchen and we had to move our fridge. As a result we have no ice making capacity. I bought this hoping it would help for moments in a pinch, but boy was I pleasantly surprised. This thing starts making ice right away! Within 20 mins we had our first cubes, within 2 hours we had a full basket. I started filling zip loc bags to store in the freezer. We have now been living in a makeshift kitchen for 2 months and this thing has never faltered. My only wish is that it had a larger water reservoir, so I could go longer without having to dump water in. There is an option to attach a water line, but I don't have a water line in my living room, so manual it is. Pros: Lots of ice, compact, fast, relatively inexpensive Cons: It can be a little loud at the beginning of the ice making process. Also, because the top is light weight plastic, it does not stay ice cold and the ice can start to melt a bit and then stick together if you don't pull it out soon after it is done.

This looks good and works incredible. Worth the extra money over the cheaper ones. The ice cubes last twice as long in my drinks

“I am very happy with this ice maker. The 44-pound daily capacity is excellent for people who need a lot of ice. It makes ice quickly, is easy to use, and works great for home or small business use.”

Ok let me start off saying i really like this ice maker its fast and the catch basket is big compared to another ice maker i had before this one, not overly loud, and produces 2 sizes ice, large and small..it arrive on time, set up was a no brainer Now id like to address some of the negative reviews about machines that stopped working after 4 or 5 months, well, mine did the same, and of course i thought it was going to have to go in the trash but after some experimenting this is what i came up with... I ran the machine continually, i bagged up cubes and never shut the machine off, well when it stopped freezing and making cubes but the motor continued to run i gave some thought to it and decided i wasnt going to throw it out just yet so i left it unplugged on the counter for 2 days, and then i decided to try one more time, plugged it back in, filled it with water and turned it on and BOOM within 6 or 7 minutes cubes dropped into the catch basket! I was so happy because i love this machine, so my conclusion is you should not leave it running for long periods, store cubes in ziplock bags and give the machine a break by unplugging it for 24hrs or less, then fill the resevoir to max level and turn on. Also i might add my tap water causes lime easily so i do not use it in the machine, i buy bottled water for it....i hope this is helpful.

I have had this icemaker since September 2022. I am very happy with it and so thrilled that I no longer have to go buy bags of ice. And if I fill the ice bucket that I keep in my freezer with ice from that machine, I don’t have to make ice again for quite a while. But I decided it was probably better to keep using the ice machine on a regular basis. So every day or every other day I go ahead and run one batch of ice by filling it with water to the fill line. When it’s finished making ice out of that water, I put it on standby. And depending on how fast I use that ice I may not make ice the next day. But I probably run it every other day because you just pour the water in it and walk away. Pretty simple to use. Like I said, I think it’s probably better to run it pretty often rather than let it sit for a longer period of time. I will fill my ice bucket if I am expecting company so that I don’t run out of ice. But the great thing is if you do run out of ice, you pour water in it in and in about six minutes it makes a batch of nine cubes and in about 35 minutes it makes a basket full of ice. So you can have more ice really fast if you need it. One thing that might be a little deceiving and they don’t really address it in the description of it. You need to empty the ice basket as soon as it gets full and put it in the freezer immediately. This machine is not a freezer or even really a refrigerator. it makes the ice and dumps it into the basket, but it will melt if you don’t empty the basket and put it in your freezer. Probably works on the same idea as even the large icemakers that you see in restaurants. It’s just a bin full of ice, and if left there for too long, it will melt. so as soon as it stops making ice you need to dump that ice into a bucket in your freezer. Like I said, it’s a great little machine and I love it. My refrigerator never had an icemaker in it.

LED info panel went partially out after 4-5 months. Not the end of the world except that at this point i could not start a clean cycle. Tried different combinations of the clean button and researched it for multiple hours to no avail. After about 8 months this thing started sounding like a dying cat. Maybe the pump went bad, idk. Only ever used distilled water in the unit!! 10 months in and the thing still makes ice well and quickly but i cant put up with the sound any longer. Bit the bullet and got an opal. At least parts and information are readily available if/when a problem arises. Giving 2 stars instead of 1 because longevity is considered terrible in most, if not all of these types of units (and the thing still works and makes ice quickly). Would still be usable in the garage or some place I cant hear it. Good features for the price if they would use a more reliable pump and LED panel.
