Hi. Can you please tell me what type of plastic these ice cube trays are made of. Thanks.

I checked the bottom of the trays, and there's no indication of the typed of plastic. The cubes slip right out of the trays. You might Google "Sterilite" to see if you can find out that way.

I really don't know. I can tell you that when they first come out of the freezer they break easily. Mine broke with first use.

I have no clue. All I can tell you is that both of the Sterilite trays I bought quickly developed cracks while the two Rubbermaid trays with which I replace them are still going strong. I use a lot of ice, emptying both trays at least once a day.

They are plastic. It is kind of thin so be gentle with them. I have made 3 batches with them and they are still holding up.

They are made of plastic. Too big to comfortably hold. Do not keep ice very long, of course I don't think Tervis is very good. I will keep the ones I have that hold ice for hours past the double wall plastic ones.

The package has no list of what it is made out of. They are some type of reasonably heavy duty plastic that is semi-flexible. They look exactly like the straws you get with hospital cups/mugs/glasses, etc. except mine are colored. I like mine very much. They work in the hospital cups I have for which I have lost the straws, etc. They are not microwave safe but you can wash them in the dishwasher. Only caveat is they are hard to wash inside of, you need a narrow, bushy bottle brush.

I believe they are plastic. I'm sorry for your issue, hopefully you can find replacements.

Yes they are Stainless Steel. You will be surprised how heavy they are. However I think the insert mechanism is weak compared to the original design in the fifties or sixties. Back then it didn't matter how hard the ice was, if you could lift the lever, you could use your ice immediately without damage to the tray inserts.

They are made out of something other than ordinary plastic. Silicon is my best guess, they era so flimsy and difficult to handle I can't recommend them. If bpa is what you find in the cheapest of products...my guess is it's in these items.

Yes that is the big question - BPA free? I see no plastic freezer trays on the market that say BPA-free. Not sure I can eliminate plastic entirely, but BPA-free would make a large difference in our body burdens.

The Plastic is a hard plastic, easy to clean, works in the freeze, I thaw it out before opening. I put them in the dishwasher (top rack) after each use. With just the 2 of us. it is nice to keep left over in the jar. I really like them.

These are made in China. And a joke when you see them. Pay attention to the size as if you are expecting standard size ice-trays you will be sorely disappointed. They are no bigger than the palms of my hands.

It is plastic, no glass on the entire piece. The bottom portion where the ice is held can only hold like 5 ice cubes so it would never keep the whole thing cold, which is why we were disappointed.

I do not know.. I ended up throwing them out after a few weeks. The ice started tasting like the silicone and freezer. My regular plastic tray still produces great ice with no added "flavor".

As I recall they were hard plastic. I only had mine a few days. I sent it back due to a different issue.

I believe that they are plastic. I use a tray but I have a friend who does not use a tray and the dominoes stand up well.

They're plastic. You have to use the bottles that fit the sodastream, I have a couple so I've always got one chilling in the fridge.

They are made of plastic. I've been using them for quite a while and they are holding up well, although one was cracked when I received them. I use them to prepare meals and place them in the freezer for later use for my father.

Had to go online and all I could find was the trays are BPA free. You might want to call company. Couldn't find any thing in literature I have. Sorry, hope this helps.
