Norpro Ice Pop Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This product is poorly designed. I am very sorry I bought it.
The metal top has slits of the precise dimensions of the popsicle sticks, but once the sticks are in liquid, they expand, of course, which makes them impossible to pull out of the lid!!!! The lid, in turn, contracts, squeezing the sticks even further, so to get them out, you have to strip the sticks through the metal holes. I am surprised that no leeway was built into this part of the product, and that the materials chosen, metal and wood, while nice and recyclable, were not more carefully evaluated for performance in changing temperatures. Perhaps the mold can be used without the lid, but then the sticks will fall over until the liquid freezes.

Progressive International Set of 2 Ice Sticks Flexible Ice Trays Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Finally an easier way to get ice into your Sigg Bottle!!! We have tried cheaper trays and none of them fit into the Sigg bottle opening and some of them were too flimsy! As a mom of two boys (three if you count my husband :-) it took too long to try to fill all of our Sigg bottles with crushed ice (we had to do crushed since the cubes from the fridge were impossible). The crushed ice would go all over the place! What a mess!!!! This is a wonderful solution for getting ice into all of your Sigg bottles!
Sigg got this right - easy to fill, comes out easily and fits! You will love this product!

Tovolo King Cube Extra Large Silicone Ice Cube Trays Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Big cubes are the latest trend in high-end cocktail bars because of their slower melt rate (less surface area) and curious look. This is a great home version that produces gorgeous 2x2 cubes. It does take a bit more effort to extract the cubes from the rubbery silicone material than traditional trays -- you have to sort of stretch and push them out -- but for big cubes it's actually advantageous to carefully slide them out this way, rather than "cracking" them out and risking fractures. You'll get the hang of it.
The BIG problem I had with this initially was that the cubes produced white "floaties" in the drink that left a rather waxy residue on the glass(!). I'm not making this up! What the heck are those? I googled it and it appears that this is a problem that some people experience with silicone trays. The best theory I found was that it's related to the effect silicone has on freezing certain types of water, perhaps condensing minerals on the surface of the cubes. It's just a theory. But I figured out a workaround which I am happy to share with the internet via this amazon review. If you experience this, just RINSE the cubes briefly before you drop them in the drink, and it will wash off the white reside. All good! I love my big cubes now.

Add this jumbo-size ice-cube tray to any kitchen collection for a fun and unexpected twist on keeping drinks chilled. Great for practical and party uses alike, the brightly colored tray makes six giant 2-inch cubes of ice, frozen juice blocks, flavored mixers, berry-infused frozen spritzers, and other creative coolers. Alternately, fill it with unused vegetable broth, baby formula, applesauce, and other leftovers to create easy-to-thaw portions while reducing waste. Constructed of flexible food-grade silicone that easily releases its contents, the tray also firmly holds its shape to turn out perfectly squared cubes, and its wide rim makes it simple to fill, transport, and pull from the freezer. Furthermore, because the frozen cubes feature larger surface areas than traditional ice cubes, they melt more slowly--which means beverages stay colder longer with less dilution. While safe for use in the dishwasher, the manufacturer also recommends regularly hand washing the tray with a diluted water-and-vinegar solution to prevent freezer-caused odors. The jumbo-size ice-cube tray comes in a variety of colors and measures 7-2/7 by 6-1/4 by 2 inches.
