Green Ice Cube Tray

I love this "ice maker"! I live in a camper at the moment and I have a fridge that is sort of in-between a mini fridge and a regular fridge, so there isn't a lot of room. I was buying ice at the grocery store, which is 45 minutes from my house, so by the time I got home it was all melty and would be one huge chunk after if refroze. So I started making my own ice. I had some silicone molds but they were leaving a weird residue on my ice and the ice was really hard to get out of them. Not to mention, they were really flimsy, hard to get in the freezer without spilling them, and the ice was very difficult to remove. Once I got the ice out, I had nowhere to put it other than a ziploc bag. This "ice maker" solved all of those problems! It fits perfectly in my small freezer. I can't stack the ice trays on top of the bin due to my shelf, but that's okay. The ice trays are rigid, except for the bottom where you push the ice out, which makes filling and moving them to the freezer so much easier than the silicone molds. I haven't spilled a drop yet. I'm not sure why my silicone molds left a white residue on my ice, maybe minerals from our well water or something leaching from the silicone, but these ice trays don't do that, thank goodness. It was really hard to clean off of my cups. The silicone molds would also freeze to the bottom of the freezer if they were even ever so slightly wet, but these trays don't do that either. The ice generally pops right out of these trays, especially the top tray, for some reason whichever tray is on the bottom will give me a hard time sometimes, but I promise you it's a million times better than the silicone molds where I had to fight each individual cube. I really like the way you dump the ice by pressing the lid, instead of having to fight each individual cube like with the silicone mold, they all dump at one time right I to the storage bin and you're done. The cubes aren't the biggest, but they're still a decent size and will usually last all day in my swig cup, depending on how many times I have to refill it. I can get probably 3 trays of ice in the storage bin, so I wish I'd have bought the 3 tier set. If I empty and fill the trays every time I get ice the bin stays full. We are ice-aholics at my house and my son is notorious for filling his cup, but not dumping and refilling the trays. I will go to get ice and he's left me 10 cubes. I ordered another 2 tier set because I couldn't find where to order just the trays. I'll have to make room in the freezer for one more (I have chest freezers so that's not a big deal) so that I'm never out of ice! The trays are also really easy to refill. If you overfill it's easy to dump a little out and redistribute the water amongst the cubes. There are little indents around each cube that allow the water to flow from one cube to another so that you can fill them evenly. While I would definitely prefer a real ice maker over this, I won't have one of those until my house is built, so for now this is the best option for me and I absolutely love it!

I purchased this ice cube tray with lid and bin set on Valentine's Day, and thanks to excellent timing, it arrived at my front door yesterday... President's Day! I started the preparation process at 2:34 in the afternoon. When I opened the box, which was cold to the touch as it was waiting for me on my front porch in chilly Eugene weather, I found two really cool ice cube trays, a wonderful little ice bucket, a great and magnificent ice scoop (which kind of reminds me of one of those little shovel-style scoops you'd find in bulk bins), and a cover that works like magic! I started by cleaning all the components with warm soapy water in a dishpan, which took little more than a half an hour! While I was preparing my supper, I put all the components in the dish drainer to dry off completely. About an hour later, I put the components in my freezer on the top shelf, so they would reach optimal chilled temperature for the moment I've been waiting for. After supper, I took my 2-cup measuring cup, brought the ice trays over to the sink, and slowly poured fresh water from my refrigerated Brita filtered water pitcher into the trays. then I put the cover on, and carried the trays one at a time to the top shelf of my freezer, where I scoped out a nice space for everything. The first tray left a teensy weensy puddle on the floor, probably because I didn't have the cover on tight enough. And perhaps because I filled it up to the top! But that's OK! Those who say "don't overfill" are simply full of baloney! Filling to the top is the best way to have ice cubes full of maaaaaaaaa-gic! The second tray's freezer trip was successful without a single puddle! By 9:00 PM, they were on the way to making magical ice cubes, undisturbed! Fast forward 8 hours later, I woke up this morning at 5:23 AM (my usual wake-up time), and when I checked on the ice cubes, the first tray had nice ice cubes on one side, but a solid sheet of ice on the other side. Possibly because I used the majority of 2 cups of water to fill them, which may have led to that uh-oh puddle. Meanwhile, the second tray had ice cubes on one side, but empty homes on the other side. Simply because I didn't have enough water to fill them all! Fast Forward to 2/17/2026 at 2:49 in the afternoon. My provider witnessed the moment of magic, when I pulled the trays straight from the freezer (I didn't need to let them sit at room temperature), pressed down gently on the top and... pop pop pop! The ice cubes came out 100% clean, with no leftovers sitting in the trays, and best of all? Nothing got broken! It's a touchdown! I give this Phinox Ice Cube Tray a solid 5 stars! It's a manual ice machine, full of magic! Update: for the last two days, I've had more success with magical ice cubes, and no more "uh-oh" puddles on the floor! Wanna know the secret? What I do is put a large, wide plastic bucket underneath each ice tray when carrying them, cover on ice tray, with the tray in the center of the bucket, to the freezer. So that whatever "uh-oh" puddles may happen, they go into the bucket instead of all over the floor!

Since my refrigerator's ice and water dispenser started leaking, we've turned off the water connection and needed a good way to make and store ice. I use ice daily in my protein shakes and like to add ice to sodas that I have not stored in the freezer, so I really want a ready supply. This setup makes a good amount of ice--maybe three to four cups or so at a time. You fill the trays at the sink, stack them on top of the storage bin, put on the cover and freeze (overnight in my freezer). When the cubes are frozen, you remove the trays of frozen cubes, place one upside down on top of the storage bin, put the cover back on and push down. The prongs in the cover push the cubes out into the bin. You do need to put a good amount of pressure on the cover to make the cubes all release. I'm short, so I have to do it on a lower table so I can put my weight on it, but it works. If any cubes don't fall out, you can press on the bottom of the individual cup which should push out that cube. I had some trouble getting the pronged plate to fit into the lid; it's quite snug, but after a little maneuvering and effort, it snapped in. The trays, lid and storage box all seem sturdy and well made. There was a little bit of a learning curve, but I've grown to really like this setup. You can carry the water-filled trays on the storage container with the cover on from the sink to the freezer with no spillage. The cubes are smallish, about half the size of a standard old-style freezer ice tray, but they are plentiful and work well in a variety of sizes and shapes of glasses or cups. There is a handy scoop included as well. Definitely a keeper! My only problem is remembering to refill the tray in the evening every few days so I have a steady supply of ice!

Funziona. Sarebbe stato utile avere un coperchio per i vassoi di conservazione, in modo che il liquido non rimanesse esposto nel congelatore durante il processo di congelamento. Ho utilizzato della pellicola trasparente per coprire i vassoi.

No vale la pena por el precio. Para que funciona, tendrá que poner muy poco agua, así los cubitos son muy pequeños.

I feel like I’ve been looking all my life for a decent ice tray that creates ice cubes and that you don’t have a full n battle with to then get them out. They always either get stuck or you break the tray getting them out. THIS IS A GAME CHANGER. Creates ice cubes in bulk, easily and so simple. Itis sturdy enough to apply pressure without breaking, the soft back allows you to push the cubes out easily and the lid is designed so you just place it on, push it down and all of the ice cubes fall into the tray below ready for when you need. Even has a little ice scoop to scoop up and lob in your drink. I actually gave up on ice cube trays but this is honestly a revelation and the Ferrari of ice cube trays. Buy and you will not regret

This 3 layer ice cube tray set is a very compact and stylish design. The soft bases in the cube molds make cube extraction simple and fast using the extractor plate that has small prongs designed to help press out the cubes from the flexible base of the molds. Having three stacked layer trays means that it fits within tighter spaces in the freezer. The storage tray mounted beneath the tray stack adds to the space efficiently. A small trowel to collect ice cubes is a convenient extra. The ice cubes are perhaps a little smaller than you might usually be accustomed to but I believe this not a disadvantage; you can use cubes sparingly or as multiples if required. I selected this item because of the need to store juice from a prolific fruit bearing lemon tree; too many to consume but worthy of juicing for later use. A good overall. choice
