Silonn Portable Countertop Ice Maker - 20lbs of Bullet Ice per Day, Makes Ice in 6 Minutes, Stainless Steel with Visible Water Level Window, Ideal for Kitchen, Office, and Camping

This ice maker is amazing!! Such a great buy! It is a bit louder than expected but I love the size of pebble ice it creates and it’s made quickly. Very easy to use and taste is good. Update: I’ve only had this product for 6 months and the machine has malfunctioned. The machine does not make ice anymore. The noise it makes is insanely loud and I have no idea how to fix the machine. I have emailed the manufacturer and I have not heard back from them. There is not warranty or any information on getting this fixed. This product does not last long.

This unit is the perfect diminutively small size to fit in a kitchen without taking up too much space. We also own an GE Opal which we keep in our home bar area, and the problem with that unit is only its size. This unit which we’ve placed in our kitchen is much smaller than an Opal even without the Opal side tank, but produces ice just as rapidly as that larger competitors. That said, this is a very different product. As others have noted the ice, while chewable, is actually really tiny cubes. They look like what you would get if you took a normal ice tray and put it through a shrinking machine. The quality of the ice is excellent and comes out clear and semi-solid but still soft enough to chew. The ice reservoir is not insulated, but the design lends its self to maintaining a constant level of ice as melted ice is recirculated into the water reservoir. Unlike the GE Opal, there is no place to add a charcoal filter, so if your water tastes terrible or is hard you may want to do as others have done and use bottled. All of this considered, this unit is very loud. I originally thought that reviewers here were exaggerating or hadn’t experienced another product, but I can confirm that this unit is louder than you might expect. Given its diminutive size there just isn’t a lot of material that can absorb or deflect the sound of the condenser and pump. Comparatively its about as noisy or slightly more so than the GE Opal, but that is a much larger unit. This unit is louder than our brand new LG refrigerator, and so we have placed them together so that at least the noise is coming from the same general location. When you consider that a refrigerator is 10-15x larger than this ice maker, that is saying something. Its noisey enough that it may not live on our counter permanently, but may get cleaned up and stored way for when we need its services. Definitely better than ice trays, but definitely as loud as advertised. Time will tell if its as reliable as other machines, but the reason I bought this unit is because of the combination of small size and reported reliability of this brand.

We purchased our Silonn ice maker on August 7, 2025 (after previously owning a GE Opal II ice maker) and it has worked perfectly for 7 months, until yesterday when it stopped making ice. It appears to be running and the light is on that indicates it is making ice, but it never does make any ice. I just submitted a warranty claim with Silonn since they guarantee their products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a Limited Warranty Period of 1 year. I have been very happy with this ice maker until yesterday when it stopped working. In fact it worked so well that we even considered buying a second one for our home and another as a gift. So I am giving this ice make 2 stars because it stopped working after only 7 months. I will increase the rating to at least 4 stars if they replace the ice maker quickly, and lower the rating if they do not honor their warranty. I will update my review once I find out how well Silonn honors their warranties.

We have had this for quite a few months and works so well! The ice produces rather quickly. I gave it only four stars because it is a little loud.

Update! I had this ice maker for just over a year and it died. It had become noisy and then stopped working altogether right after the year mark. I loved it when it worked. I have had this almost a year and no one uses the fridge ice maker anymore. This ice is that perfect crunchy ice that everyone is looking for. I couldn't see paying a huge price for a countertop ice maker when I technically had an ice maker in the fridge. This one has been great. It was easy to use and setup was basically wash it out, plug it in, and fill it up. We have well water so I buy those big jugs of water at Costco to fill it. The price was great, it makes ice in about 6-7 minutes, and the ice is exactly what I wanted. The downside is that it has started to be noisy. I clean it, use bottled water, and It has plenty of space around the machine for air flow. I am hoping that it continues to function. I also wish it was a larger capacity because everyone in my house now takes "mom's ice." However, I hate clutter and appliances on my countertop so for the size of the machine it does make a decent amount.

My ice maker lasted for 1 year and 5 months. It started to become very squeaky, I cleaned it several times and it never got better. Now it's not making ice at all. It was a decent ice maker when it worked, but don't expect it to last for years. You're better off spending more money for a better ice maker. I guess I got what I paid for. In the trash it goes.

It was awesome while it lasted. We have had ours for ten months and were very happy with it. About a month ago the on off switch stopped functioning, so we've had to physically unplug it when we want it off. Since then it has been slowly dying. The display barely works and it has become very noisy. I would love to rate it higher, but it didn't even last a year.....

It’s been a few months and still works good ! I actually like the ice better than when I had the GE profile because this ice is softer.
