Klarstein Silent Cool: what works, what doesn't?
What works well
- Quietest in the comparison (27 dB): vibration-free Peltier technology, made for the bedroom
- No compressor cycling: an even, quiet fan instead of disturbing switching on and off
- Stylish glass door + LED: attractive look, contents visible
- Light (11 kg): easy to move, for example to a hotel room
- Continuously adjustable temperature: 5 to 15 °C freely adjustable
Points of criticism
- Energy class G, high consumption: despite being “quiet”, power-hungry for its size (the marketing “A+” is outdated)
- Does not cool properly cold: Peltier only cools relative to the room temperature, weak on hot days
- Expensive for 30 L: around €171, the quiet and glass door cost extra

Build quality & everyday use
What carries the Klarstein Silent Cool in everyday use: Quietest in the comparison (27 dB) (vibration-free Peltier technology, made for the bedroom) and No compressor cycling (an even, quiet fan instead of disturbing switching on and off).

If you set the device up to save space, allow ventilation clearance of at least 5 cm at the sides and 10 cm at the rear, otherwise the compressor may overheat.
