OXO Good Grips Covered Ice Cube Tray Set,Blue,2 Pack

You will never need to look for anything better.

She doesn't use a lot of ice, so hers used to pick up fridge odors.

I was using some ultra cheap ice cube trays to make coffee cubes and they recently started cracking. I tried two other silicone trays in my search for another type of tray that wouldn't crack, but had problem with the cubes sticking. I finally came upon these.Coffee is a bit sticky when it comes to trays and seems to be a bit harder to release. These are perfection for my use! They release easily, (I think I let them sit for 10-20 seconds before they release.) The other great thing is that I just store them in the freezer as-is and just release what I need when I need it. In the past I had to store the cubes and that meant a freezer bag, that in turn meant I got coffee all over my hands when I got out the cubes and most of the time the cubes would stick together in the bag.I have an ice maker for regular ice, but these would definitely be a step up from regular trays for anyone needing plain jane ice. I have so many Oxo gadgets and appreciate every single one of them!

I wish I would've bought these sooner. I was using a traditional ice tray without a lid and my ice was tasting so yucky from absorbing smells from the freezer. I didn't even want to drink iced coffee anymore. Gross. I bought these and so far, no foul tasting ice. It's been great. I know that people have complained about the trays being difficult too open, I personally didn't find that to be the case. I also made sure I didn't over fill the trays. If you are on the fence, just buy them.

Love these ice trays! They have a super smart design and I love the cover so other things can stack on top of them in the fridge and once it's frozen they don't have to lay flat. The only downside is if you fill the trays too full, have it freeze on an angle, or get water on the inside of the cover, the cover can attach to the ice cubes inside making it hard to slide off the first time. But really it's not a big deal. Love how easy the ice cubes are to get out with the curved bottom. It's about time someone made them like this! I bought them to try filling my ice dispenser with. I figured since they were the same shape they would work the best. I haven't tried that yet since we haven't had a need for lots of ice for entertaining with COVID, but I don't see why it wouldn't work (we wanted to make ice cubes from our filtered ionized water instead of using the waterline).

I *love* these! I'll be getting more of these brilliant ice trays. How much do I love them? I gathered ALL of my other ice trays & gave them away! The lid slides on relatively easily, allows easy stacking in the freezer. Once the ice cubes are frozen, you can then stash them at any angle and the ice cubes won't fall out. When you want ice cubes, just slide the lid back to expose as many as you want. The individual "wells" are semi-circular and so the "cubes" are easier to nudge out of the tray than rectangular cubes. Because of the shape, the tray would also be easy to wash, and the back is easy to rinse off also (not so for some of the ones I washed off before giving them away!). Another win for OXO. *** Half a year later, everything I said above is still true, and I still find them very easy to make, use & store ice cubes. My only add'l comment is that they take up more room in the freezer than a more conventional ice cube tray, per amount of ice made. Not a complaint, just something to be aware of.

I was excited to find ice cube trays with covered lids. I ordered two sets. They easily and securely stack well. Covers and trays are well made, not flimsy at all. The cover slides on and off easily. The ice cube size and quantity is just right for me. The cubes loosen nicely to be taken out and do not break or chip! Worth every penny says the happy purchaser 😊 Thank you.

I’m sitting here thinking about how I’m writing a review for an ice cube tray as the world burns. I guess I can distract myself for a moment. Um. This is not leak proof, and not like the lid fails to prevent leaks- it is not a lid that fastens down. It has the leak proof capability as if you were carrying a bucket of water with a piece of cardboard just sitting atop. And while this helps me after the ice cubes are frozen bc I can stack them and tilt them sideways, this does not however help me when they are still water. If the trays are not completely flat the water can flow freely between cube segments and pour out the sides. And ikik I could wildly under fill them but like...why? Water still sloshes out as I carry the tray to my freezer (I am clumsy so I’ll admit to that). I think the lid is purely for stacking purposes only. The trays themselves- if the water could not pool meaning that the water didn’t rise above the cube walls and connect then the cubes come out easily and flawlessly. But once again, if the tray is not completely flat or you didn’t carry the tray with exact precision to the freezer So the water doesn’t equally sit below the cube wall or you don’t greatly under fill the tray- then this only benefits half the tray. The other half has too much ice and it makes the lid difficult to remove. I feel a little stupid for spending $18 on 2 ice cube trays but I’ve been desperate for iced coffee and my freezer has been full bc of the pandemic and our usual open trays weren’t working at all. It’s a big meh for me. I’d probably be happier if they were cheaper.
