Silonn Countertop Ice Maker Machine, 9 Cubes Ready in 6 Mins, 12 KG in 24Hrs, Self-Cleaning Ice Machine with Ice Scoop and Basket, 2 Sizes of Bullet Ice for Home Kitchen Office Bar Party

I am so happy I got this ice maker! I moved to the UK from California, and not having a plumbed-in fridge with a built in ice-maker is something I've found difficult. I know, I sound spoiled! But for me, I feel like ice should not that big of a luxury. Making drinks with maybe 3 ice cubes, to conserve the number of cubes in the tiny little trays (which crack, leak, and do not give up their ice without smashing them on the counter!) is a disappointment I no longer need to endure. The key point to this machine is: it works. It makes ice, and I'm getting plenty of use out of it. I fill up large zip lock bags with ice cubes to store in my freezer, and then I wipe her down and store her away. I have managed to find space in a cupboard in my tiny kitchen, as obviously storage is an issue. This isn't something I want on my counter permanently. That said, it is rather beautiful. I have to say the matt black finish is sleek. And, I am delighted there is a handle! Great design feature, since it does have some weight to it, and moving it in and out of the cupboard is far easier with handle access. Here's how it works: 1. You have to have it sit upright for 24hours before you use it. I think something to do with the anti-freeze and having it delivered. 2. Then, you clean it - which is super easy. Just wipe it all down and dry. 3. You open the lid and fill water to the fill line (I use filtered water to avoid lime-scale build up) 4. You position the basket inside the machine and close the lid. 5. There is an obvious ON button. And you can choose the size of the ice, Small or Large. It's digital, you press the button and it lights up green. 6. Then, you wait. The machine will make ice. When the basket is full, it automatically stops production. 7. You empty the basket, and the machine will resume making ice with the remaining water. 8. A light will come on when you need to add more water. Because the machine stops making ice when the basket is full, you can't leave this running overnight or unattended if you are intending on making lots of ice. Also, the ice will start to melt while it sits in the basket, albeit slowly. There is no alarm beep to advise that the basket is full, as far as I have experienced. It is kind of noisy, but you know, it's making ice, so that's expected. I don't find it overly loud. I have it on right now and it's not bothersome. It sounds quieter than the standing fan I have blowing. As other reviewers have noted the ice size is rather small. I have only ever put it on the Large setting because I can't imagine the point of having smaller ice than the "large" size it makes. I suppose I should try just to see! I haven't bothered up until now. Overall I am SO happy I have this machine. It is easy to use in every aspect. I consider it an excellent investment, and am thrilled I bought it. I don't even remember what I paid for it, but it's worth it! I can make ice-tea whenever I want, with loads of ice! I can make a proper G&T with half a glass full of ice! YES! Summer is so much more delightful with ice. I'd say that although this is heavy, it is portable in terms of the size. You could pack this in your car if you are going on vacation in the UK. You could loan it to a friend! Highly recommend. PS, you won't usually find me leaving reviews with this much detail. I just put my ice-maker on today and I thought: everyone needs to know about this! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

This little ice cube maker has been great for making iced coffees and also for the ice in my gin and tonic. It's really easy and straightforward to use, and easy to clean and empty. There is a little plug underneath that you pull out to drain the water out of, and it has a carry handle so that you can carry it to your sink to empty it. You can choose from 2 sizes of ice cubes, and it makes them pretty quickly. You should allow your ice cube maker 24 hours after receiving it before turning it on. Good value for money and looks great on my coffee station.

So far so good easy to use and it works perfectly producing 9 small cubes in exactly 6 mini & 9 large cubes in 8 mins. The difference in cube size is marginal. It's operation is quite and it's a good size for the kitchen counter (not to big). The quality of the ice what you'd expect from a 6 min freeze, it will cool drinks but not last as long as a cube that's been in the freezer for days

Great counter top ice maker that works flawlessly although not as fast as it says it does but that is not really a major issue as it still makes ice cubes faster than just putting water in a tray and freezing them it runs relatively loud but not to the point it is over bearing so don't expect this to be silent or without noise completely I'm sure there would be a way to make this quieter than it is but that's not a major issue for myself, the ice production works perfectly and even has a sensor to tell you when it's full and stops producing ice until you remove it from the basket. The look of the maker fits in well with what i would say any kitchen design as it purely just blends in with other counter top appliances so that is a massive win overall, the two different settings though are not really to different from one another as the ice cube size is not that much different to each other. I would recommend this Ice maker.

Very impressed with this ice machine,makes ice in about 6 minutes,almost silent can recommend this product

Hasn't even lasted a year before it broke. Refuses to make ice cubes now, regardless of small or large setting selected. Constantly having to use a hair dryer on the pipes to remove drops of water which is what prevents water from freezing for some reason.

Great little ice maker, a little noisy but just turn the music up & you can’t hear it

Bought for the summers in the UK now, it's amazing and a must buy. It doesn't use much electricity, the ice has two sizes both great for drinks and fast cooling, holds enough water for a family of 4 to have a cold drink before it needs 30 mins to be full of ice again and is super easy to use even your children could use it. With summers as they are now this is a must for cold drinks and not broken so far even after all this time and all the use where it wasn't turned off for an entire day every day for the summer heatwave. Only turned off at night and still works the same.

Helt suverän, nu har vi alltid en massa is i frysen och snabbt går det 😍

Happy with this purchase, nice and compact and wouldn’t even know it was running

Die Maschine war super, Eis am laufenden Band, nichts zu bemängeln. Nach 6 Mon und ca. 10* im Einsatz keine Eiswürfel mehr. Mechanik funktioniert, aber keine Kühlung mehr. ERgo - Keine Eiswürfel mehr. Ich bin echt maßlos enttäuscht von dem Produkt.

exelent 20 mn et des glacons

Leider werden die Eiswürfel nicht richtig produziert. Anstatt 9 produziert er nur 2-4 pro Gang. Geht leider zurück.
