Twist and Release Mini Nugget Ice Cube Tray Set of 2 with 1 Bin

These are amazing! I'd like to see the negative reviewers remove ice from the old metal ice trays with the lever. Hahaha these are a piece of cake compared to old ice cube trays! Will definitely purchase more! I love the size of the little cubes! They seal so your ice doesn't taste or smell bad. Stackable I have no clue why? You fill to the line and then slowly insert middle. Filling is easy. If you over fill the 2 holes in the top let the water out. Don't overfill does nothing but make it take longer for ice and harder to remove. I love the shape and size. Lid? Durable I would say so I filled and froze night before trip to the beach 2.5 hours in a cooler with other types of ice and food and it stayed frozen. Removal.... I see alot of complaints about this part of the process. If you read the directions and got ice so far then keep following them. I rinse the entire thing. Fill middle while rinsing the second one. Then try and remove inner part. If it doesn't come out I fill it again while trying the 2nd one. If it takes a few more seconds rinsing with warm water they do come out. Forcing it out like one video shows is just showing you don't read instructions and follow them. Its not rocket science its just nature. If it doesn't come out easily rinse for 10-30 seconds longer. I let the warm water sit in the middle for a few more seconds. They do come out and these are great for travel. I'm buying 2 more for when I travel with more than a couple friends. Even with the less than stellar reviews I've always loved this brand so I gave them a try and I love them!

It works very well. Makes the ice cubes, and it's easy to use. The melting speed depends on whether it's hot or not when you remove the ice. The shape makes it easy and portable.

They are extremely convenient and they fit perfectly in my freezer. They could leak if they aren’t upright so if you put them upright, they’ll be fine. I’ve used them for around two weeks and they are still durable. The size of them make the perfect amount of ice!

Love these Tovolo ice cylinders because you can fit them nearly anywhere and take them with you, if needed. My ice machine made too much noise, took up too much space, and is useless in winter so turned it off, removed the bin, and looked for an alternative that didn't necessarily need a flat space -- these are perfect. Works as indicated with no issues. No pooling at bottom, easy release, cute little cubes pour out. I also freeze my glasses in summertime to add frostiness. I have other Tovolo products that are amazing so felt confident to buy during a limited-time discount period.

OMG!! I love a good cubed/semi-soft small ice "cube"- anyone that has ever had Cleveland Clinic ice knows what I'm talking about... this is pretty darn close! These are easy to use, ice is able to get out within 30-45 seconds after running under hot water then just refill and ready shortly! Don't hesitate...

I really like these so far. I'm not a big user of ice, but occasionally I like a nice ice-cold drink. These are easy to fill, and fairly easy to extract the ice from. I've found that if you don't fill it all the way to the line, you lose less water when you put the lid on, and the ice is easier to get out because you won't get frozen sheets of ice, just the little blocks you're supposed to be getting. Give it a gentle squishing once you put the lid on to get the air out, and make sure the mold is filled all the way up. When you're ready to use it, fill the center of the lid cylinder with tap water and wait a couple of minutes. Then twist the lid to break the lid away from the ice, and pull straight out. Then you just have to squish the silicon mold until all the little cubes pop out. That takes a little longer than you think it will, and is why I've taken off one star. The tiny ice blocks don't like to come out easily. But the small cubes cool your drink down fast, and I've actually had them last overnight in an insulated tumbler. There are a convenient size for putting in the small freezer in your fridge, and one of them makes plenty of ice for one drink.

The ice cubes are a nice size and come out easily once you get the gray tube out. The key is getting the gray tube out. I found it difficult to remove, even after running under warm water. After a while of leaving the cylinders in the freezer the silicone started to have a smell. Nice idea but for the effort to get the ice cubes out it wasn’t worth it for me so I got a standard ice cube tray instead and got rid of these.

I like the Tovolo ice cylinders worked just like it says. Easy breezy

This is an amazing product and works as advertised. I am buying another set to replace my small ice-cube (1cm) trays. This makes small ice cubes, which are perfect if you are an ice-eater (like me), and enough for 1 drink if you like a lot of ice in it (like me). For regular folks, one of these makes enough ice for 2 drinks. You can de-ice it right into itself or a glass so there isn’t need for another container, and refill is quick and easy so you can do it right away. These do fit into my freezer door so they are easy to grab and don’t take up room inside. Tips: 1. When re-filling it, put it on a flat surface and press the top down until all the extra water is removed from the two holes on the top. (Watch out for the fountain!) This will also create suction keeping the water inside in place. 2. When de-icing, fill the center with hot water to detach it from the ice. This makes it easy to slide it out. 3. You do need to run it under hot water or let it sit to de-ice easily. 4. You do need to make sure the bottom is flat when freezing and the lid is secure in place. Otherwise it will sag and make flat ice at the bottom.

too hard to figure out how to make it work

When I first bought these two ice makers — the type where you fill the sides with water and put the lid on top — I was a little sceptical about how well they’d perform. But after using them for about two weeks, I can honestly say I love them. They do exactly what they’re meant to do. You do need to give them a bit of a tap or twist to release the ice, and removing the plastic centre helps, but once the ice comes out it’s crunchy, solid, and in neat little square pieces. The ice lasts all day when used in an insulated cup. I use one tray at a time and keep the other as a backup, though I rarely even need it. My iced coffee stays cold and refreshing for hours.

Really good solid icecube mould. Easy to use and really nice compared to the usual large cubes. Very satisfying to squeeze out the ice cubes out of silicone mould.

Wowww estoy impresionada con este producto los hielos son super faciles de usar y sacar y sale una buena cantidad (para un vaso) o si no te gusta taaan frio para 2, tiene sentido que el precio sea mayor que el resto de este tipo de productos en internet, la calidad es muy notoria
