Silonn SLIM09B-U review
A countertop ice maker rated at roughly 12 kg (26.5 lb) over 24 hours with a stated noise level under 35 dB and two cube sizes, backed by the largest volume of buyer reviews found in this comparison. Same ASIN and EAN confirmed live with real pricing on Amazon.de and .fr.
Among every ice maker researched for this comparison, this listing carries by far the largest number of buyer reviews — a genuinely useful signal in a category where manufacturer specification sheets rarely publish independent reliability data.
A published noise figure
Silonn states a noise level under 35 dB, a specific and checkable figure rather than a vague “quiet” description. Combined with the 12 kg (26.5 lb)/24h production rate, that puts this machine in a similar performance tier to the cheaper SONGMICS model reviewed alongside it, at a real price premium.
What that premium actually buys
The core production numbers are close to the cheapest option in this family — the case for paying more here rests on the noise figure and the depth of buyer feedback available, not on a meaningfully higher daily output.
Bottom line
For a buyer who wants the reassurance of a very large, checkable base of owner reviews and a specific published noise figure, this is a reasonable mid-range pick — though its core ice-making numbers don’t outperform the cheapest machine in this comparison by much.
What works, and what does not
Strengths
By far the largest volume of buyer reviews found across every product researched for this site — over 15,000 on the German listing alone, a strong signal of real-world reliability data
Under-35 dB noise figure is genuinely published, not just described
Two selectable cube sizes on a compact countertop unit
Marked as an 'Amazon's Choice' style pick on the listing checked, alongside the review volume
Compromises
The internal ice basket is limited, meaning frequent emptying under sustained heavy use, similar to other countertop machines in this family
12 kg (26.5 lb)/24h places it in the same production tier as cheaper rivals like SONGMICS, despite a higher price
Made ice still melts faster than tray-frozen ice and needs re-freezing for longer storage, the same limitation shared across this entire family

What readers ask us
Is the Silonn SLIM09B-U meaningfully better than the cheaper SONGMICS ice maker?
Both share a similar 12 kg (26.5 lb)/24h production figure and 6-minute first batch. The Silonn costs more but comes with a published sub-35 dB noise figure and a substantially larger base of buyer reviews to check against — whether that premium is worth it depends on how much weight is put on noise level and review volume specifically.
Why does this listing have so many more reviews than other ice makers in this comparison?
The listing checked showed over 15,000 reviews on the German market alone, far more than any other ice maker researched for this site. That volume itself is useful evidence of how the product performs across a large number of real households, beyond what the specification sheet alone can show.

The buyer this one serves, among bar and wine appliances
A buyer who weighs review volume heavily and wants a well-documented, quiet countertop ice maker at a mid-range price.
What this one costs among bar and wine appliances
A reference exists on these Amazon stores: France, Germany, United Kingdom, United States. Listed is not the same as in stock — availability changes daily.
Specifications: the manufacturer sheet for bar and wine appliances and the matching Amazon product page. Prices and availability: Keepa. Every figure on this page names its source.
12 kg (26.5 lb)/24h · 9 cubes in 6 min · 2.1 L tank · 2-year warranty
A stainless steel ice maker rated at 12 kg (26.5 lb) over 24 hours with a larger 2.1 L water tank than most rivals and a 2-year manufacturer warranty. The most expensive ice maker confirmed in this comparison, and flagged by Amazon as a frequently returned item on the listing checked.
Best for: A buyer who specifically values a larger water tank, a longer warranty and French-market after-sales support, and who weighs the frequently-returned signal against those factors before deciding.
14 kg (30.9 lb)/24h · spherical ice · 6–8 min cycle · 5–8h insulated retention
An ice maker producing spherical ice — which melts slower than standard cubes — rated at 14 kg (30.9 lb) over 24 hours, the highest daily figure confirmed in this comparison. Same ASIN and EAN confirmed live with real pricing on Amazon.de and .fr.
Best for: Someone who specifically wants slower-melting spherical ice and the highest confirmed daily output in this comparison, and who double-checks the physical dimensions before ordering given the inconsistency found on the listing.
12 kg (26.5 lb)/24h · 9 cubes in 6 min · self-cleaning
A compact countertop ice maker producing 12 kg (26.5 lb) over 24 hours, with a first batch of 9 cubes in 6 minutes and a 30-minute self-cleaning cycle. Confirmed live with real pricing on Amazon.de and .fr, the cheapest ice maker confirmed in this comparison.
Best for: A budget-conscious buyer who wants a compact, genuinely 12 kg (26.5 lb)/24h ice maker for regular home use rather than the fastest possible first batch.
