Best ice trays I ever owned
599587
I was a little reluctant to purchase initially due to the cost, but these truly are the best ice trays I've ever owned. Just fill them up, secure the lid, and freeze. When ready to dump the tray I just water the back of the tray, snap off the lid and the ice cubes fall out.

I love these trays. I like ice in my drinks, but don't like them watered down. This is the best of both. It keeps my drink cold for a long time without sacrificing taste. I have recently started appreciating using silicone more in the kitchen. I did some research and it seems to be very safe. Its also easy to clean and pretty inexpensive.

I have another set of silicone trays with smaller cubes. I've found that when people come over they either love them or hate them. I think its easier to pop ice out of them after the first cube is out. After that theres more area around each additional cube to push around the silicone mold and get subsequent cubes out. I find that if I leave it out of the freezer for about 2 minutes before pushing them out that they come out much easier. I remember to do this by pulling it out before I get my cup and drink out. By the time I do all that its a little easier to get the ice out. This particular mold is thick and seems to be good quality. I haven't had any problems with tears or anything. I also have ice mold balls that I purchased a few years back. I used them for a couple weeks, but they were more work than they were worth. Then it wasn't convenient only having 2 cool ice cubes when we had guests over. I can fill these up when I have a gathering and 16 cubes is plenty for the group.

I really, really wish I would've seen these when I was making baby food 6 months ago. I was using a tray that produced 1 ounce baby food cubes. Thats all I could find at the time. I was often heating up 4-5 cubes at a time when he really started eating. I measured and this tray makes cubes that are approx 100 milliliters, which is close to 3 1/3 ounces, just about the right amount for one meal for stage 1 type foods. When he got older two cubes would've been perfect. I also have used these strays to freeze smoothies for 1 year old size portions. I will unthaw him 2 cubes at a time and that will be his afternoon snack. When summer comes I plan to use them to make little 1 year old sized healthy popsicles. I am extremely happy that I was contacted to sample and review these. I really had no idea they were out there or I would've bought them 6-9 months ago. They are so much better than the ice mold balls or smaller ice cubes.

Update: After using them for about 2 weeks, they now have a funny, freezer burnt smell. I've tried washing them multiple times and putting them in the dishwasher twice and it's still there, but not very strong. I'm not really sure what to make of it. My other silicone products don't have the same problem, but this is the only one I leave in the freezer. Now that I'm thinking about it, when I ordered my smaller silicone trays about a year ago I remember some reviews mentioning that if you leave them in the freezer for long that they get the weird smell. I think the recommendation was to freeze cubes and then transfer them to another container for storage. Wish I would have remembered that earlier!

Update a few weeks after first update: Freezer burnt smell is gone. My plan for freezing things in silicone is to freeze it until it's solid, transfer it into a storage container in the freezer and pull the trays out.

Hands down, these are the BEST ice cube trays!  They are firm, yet flexible.  It takes 2 simple twists to loosen the cubes and then they come out extremely easily.  All the issues I have experienced with other trays are now a thing of the past.  No more trays that crack/break, no more needing a jack hammer to remove the cubes!  These trays are perfection and I am SO happy that I bought them!  Highly recommend as they are well worth the money.

I have an automatic ice maker, but it is so slow and small that we often run out of ice. I chose these ice cube trays because I liked the idea of bigger cubes so we wouldn't need as many cubes in any given drink.  These succeed there!  One of these ice cubes replaces 4-5 of the normal ice cubes that come out of my automatic ice maker. These ice cubes melt so much more slowly that it doesn't water down the drink and I often don't need any more ice when I refill a drink because they melt so slowly.

The trays are firm enough to not "slosh" the water when placing the full tray in the freezer but supple enough to easily get the ice out once the water is frozen.

I highly recommend these ice cube trays.

I absolutely LOVE these ice cube trays. The ice comes out beautifully. They are perfect for my evening bourbon. Thanks.

Super awesome ice cube trays, we have used them every day for over 6 months and they are still as easy to get the ice cubes out of as on day 1.
The stacking makes them even better, we have gone through 4 or 5 other brands promising the same as these, but no other brand delivered.

I love these OXO stackable ice trays for making broth cubes, ices cubes for whiskey and more. Solid design and very durable. Really takes the headache out of making and storing frozen liquid cubes. Would highly recommend if you're into prepping food ahead of time and freezing in portions.

I am very happy with these ice cube tray. They obviously won't freeze together since they have a cover plus you can fill them with the cover on. When filling them eye ball them through the side to prevent over filling, since water is self leveling when the water starts to fill the last slot stop filling the tray. Also when emptying the trays the cubes fallout very easily.

I love this Ice tray!!! Easy to fill, and even easier to get the cubes out after they are frozen! I use distilled water for clear ice cubes (for my bourbon), but we have tried cubes made of kool-aid, juice, and jello (in the fridge)!! All of them worked out great.
Super easy to clean, and compact enough to fit in the little tray area of our freezer!!! Fantastic.

I love this set of ice cube trays! The lids make it easy to stack in the freezer, even just after filling with water. I love that each tray holds 21 good sized cubes. The ice cubes also come out of the tray super easily and I never have to worry about accidentally cracking the tray. Great product!

These trays are awesome. No more cracked ice trays from banging them on the counter trying to get the ice to come loose from the tray. Not only does the silicone make them effortless to remove but they are large cubes so your beverages don't water down near as quickly as with traditional ice cubes. And you use less ice to chill your beverages as well. I think these are great:)

These are the best ice cubes ever!  They are so easy to remove the ice cubes from the silicone.  Plus they last longer than normal sized ice cubes in keeping your drink cold.  I purchased 2 but thinking of purchasing 2 more.  I have a ice machine in my refrigerator but rather use these since they don't melt as quick and don't water down my drink as quickly.  I also use boiled water since it makes the ice cubes clear not cloudy like with cold water.

Pro: best ice cube trays I've ever used minus the one con...
Con/warning: Don't try to stack these in the freezer until the bottom one is frozen, they stack into each other, not ON each other... (water went everywhere haha)

Bless these ice cube trays! If you're still using the old hard plastic kind, do yourself a favor and get some of these. The soft silicone makes the ice cubes easy to pop out.

This is a great ice cube tray. I can't think of a single thing I'd do improve on it except possibly the color, but that's just me. The cubes are perfect, look beautiful in a glass, they're easy as pie to pop out, and water doesn't spill or slop over the sides when you fill it like the other silicone trays with flat tops

I've never liked the automatic ones that come with refrigerators, and this tray makes a good case for never needing one.

Admittedly hesitated when I saw how many of the reviews listed here were based on items that were provided free or were sold at a discount. But I enthusiastically agree with the five star ratings.

If you miss the ice trays the way they used to be, sturdy, easy to get the ice out, good ice every time.  Then you've found them.  If you want cheap buy the others - again and again and again.  Then when you've paid for these several times on cheap ones and been frustrated in the process, spend the $$ and pay for these and SMILE!!

These are superior Ice Cube Trays. I know that sounds extreme, but as someone who goes through probably four trays a day in my apartment, I feel like I'm always making ice. Calling these "Easy Release" just doesn't do them justice, the cubes fall out of the tray when you flip it over. Don't buy any other tray, this is it!
