Stainless Steel Ice Cube Trays, Metal Ice Cube Trays for Freezer Vintage Inspired Design with Release Lever Remove Handle for Making Large Cubes Kitchen & Bar (1pcs)

Never owned the metal ice trays before but from what I read, these were how they are made back in the days. Decided to get one mainly for freezing other liquids like cream. I know it's not the best for freezing cream since it will settle but sometimes we just can't use it quick enough. We tried this and it worked out well overall and didn't change the consistency too much. It seems to freeze very quick. After letting it sit on the kitchen table for a few minutes, I used the handle to loosen all the cubes. Some got stuck but that's a minor annoyance. This is a good product overall. Came with little finger gloves which I never used and a small tong which I used to pick up the small blocks of frozen cream and transferred them to a small plastic container to refreeze in batches.

These work well. One did kind of fall apart I mean it held together but the pieces come undone and I had they took some difficulty to get them back in place and then it kept working again I guess I stressed it too much pulled it too hard when I was removing ice. But it's operational again now no harm. Therefore I'd say that they're pretty reliable and robust since I was I believe I abused it and then it just the parts slipped by each one another and it still worked but just barely the handle wouldn't go down all the way and then I got looking at it and realised it was the piece that is on top of the other the ice slots were not up there anymore and with some difficulty I got them back into place and it has stayed in place and operates properly again.

I am adding to my review to make it simpler for you. I use a time 9min after I pull The ice tray out. Then I use a glove(from a curling iron) my fingers & tongs to pull out the ice cubes. The tips didn’t work for me. I have 2 pieces paper towel on top of a bin(yes plastic)that I put the ice cubes in. At this point they are slightly melting. Then I get them Into the freezer. They still may stick together. I measure 1 2/3 cup of arrowhead water for each tray. I do like smaller cubes too. If you put more water in the cubes are pretty big & give more time before removing them. I now love the shape & the ice cubes stay frozen overnight in most tumblers or all day. The handle doesn’t t always law flat again. Doesn’t matter. Sometimes I wash with sudsy water, sometimes not! Up to you. I’ve Pros & Cons. Pro: Your Not adding Plastic into your body daily with stainless steel Trays & the Shapes are Nice. The Ice Tongs & fingertips come in handy. Cons: I have to master the time it takes to let the tray sit before you can lift the latch which releases the cubes. It takes longer for the ice to melt enough to lift each cube out than plastic trays. So the ice will stick together in whatever you are putting your ice in. I have a plastic tray that holds 1-3 trays. Then I have to hit the box on the counter to break the cubes up. It is not as easy as plastic or silicone to just flip & twist the trays. I use ice trays daily & I do like the ice cubes from this tray. I will try less water which should slow the rate of the cubes melting. The trays are heavy & worth the money as well.

Not going to give you uniform ice cubes. Some do break and have smaller pieces of ice. Does the job for me eliminating another use of plastic in my home. I use filtered water from a Berkey. I am curious how long the handle will hold up cause you do have to use some strength to pull up on to crack the ice. But for now it feels strong.

Do it! Here’s the deal, it’s a stainless steel ice cube tray. The handle is a little tough to pull at first and then gives. No big deal. The edges of the ice cube insert are a little sharp…they should be and you never need to actually grab them. Want filtered ice in the cleanest form possible, this is the product for you.

This gets one star. I bought it a few weeks ago and its already broke. Rhe handle freezes and make it vwx hard to remove the ice I will now have to look for another brand to buy.

Hard to open and cubes are more crushed then cubed

I bought these cause those plastic ones break so easily. And my the ones my Grandmom had of these lasted forever! I love them

honestly, I did not expect that I would like it this much I mean it’s an ice cube tray… but I had a big problem with silicone and plastic trays. They absorb the freezer smell so when I cleaned them, I can smell it and it makes me gag :( would this stackable stainless steel tray you get the organizer, which is great and 2 stainless steel ice cube trays so if I finished one, I clean it and pour some water and put it back and use the other while the first one freezes! so it’s ♾️, and I don’t worry about micro plastics or silicone materials with this and it’s also better than cheap icemaker that you need to clean every week because they’re so dirty! and I also like the fact that when I pour water into it, the water spread spreads evenly because the separator leaves just enough space for the water to level itself in comparison to other ice cube trays it makes the job easier and soo much cleaner.
