glacio Ice Cube Trays Silicone Combo Mould - Set of 2, Sphere Ice Ball Maker with Lid & Large Square Moulds, Reusable and BPA Free

Bought this item with little expectation but was really impressed with the quality.I didn't realises that the sphere ice cube tray actually interlocks at the rings to create a water tight seal.The first attempt yielded ice spheres with rings as I did not use properly. Second attempt was perfect spheres. Press down on the rings to lock them in place! (you'll know what I mean when you buy the product)

This is my first Ice Cube & Sphere mould I got for this Christmas to try and make some cocktails.To get the standard size of an Ice cube is easy, just fill it up and leave it to freeze over night. The sphere one is a bit tricky when I first did it and it kinda worked and by that I mean when I pulled out the sphere and cracked to use one of the sphere, as soon as I poured liquid on it, the ice sphere cracked and that it because of how I filled it.I tried it the second time and it came out just right. All you need to do is, shut it all the way in with out any water, then lift one of the corners and pour water till you see it fill up on the corner that you're holding, turn it the other way around and repeat it.As soon as you're done doing that, there are small holes on the top, just take cake and fill it up till it overlaps and place it in the freezer and leave it over night, take it out of the freezer the very day or whenever you wanna use it, first crack it open, without trying to open up the lid and then use a bit of force to open up one of the corner, which actually comes off easily and you'll notice it looks perfect.It is one of the best ones and I would 100% recommend it and may even buy one ''hoping the owner would just send me a free one : -)''

My husband has recently got into making cocktails & these trays have been the perfect addition to his set. They are the perfect size, are easily assembled/made & they are easy to remove once frozen.The cocktails now look as amazing as they taste!

Excellent large ice cubes, saved me through hot summer last year.

Made first ice balls yesterday, which worked well. The advice to slightly warm by resting the ice before putting in the drink works. For my first try I didn't and the sphere split in half; second try it stayed a sphere. Brilliant!But note: some criticisms of it making only half spheres show lack of understanding how to fuse the top and bottom. It is important to press round each mould and feel the small 'clicks' as the halves join and seal.The most important aspect for me was to find a supplier from anywhere but China. The only thing not clear is whether the product is made in China but distributed by a US company. Hopefully this will be clarified by the seller, and hopefully show it is made in and distributed from US/UK/Australia/Europe.

The spheres don't sit flush so they come out looking more like Saturn than spherical, plus they typically crack easily so they loses their novelty. The cubes are fine, I just don't understand why they're not actual cubes as the bottom dips in

I like the size of the ice as you only need one cube or ball will do for a drink. Easy to use and easy to take out.

The cube tray is easy to use and release the ice, which is significantly larger than a traditional tray produces. The cubes are well defined and clear. The tray, although flexible, is firm enough to transport to the freezer with minimal flexing and spillage. A 5 star productThe sphere maker is less impressive, although still effective. I have found it more difficult to fit the lid without spill over while creating a seal around the centre of the ball. With a few trial runs, the ice balls are round with a 90% fill and create a nice effect.

After reading reviews of this type ice mold trays, I was concerned about which one to buy, and how it would perform. I took a chance with the Glacio and am very happy with its function and the ice cubes it produces. The square cube tray is very simple to fill but takes a bit more effort to remove the cubes. I tend to flex it and push from the bottom and it works fine. The round cube tray takes a bit of patience to set up to make sure the top and bottom are snug together, but when done with relative ease, the filling works like a charm. I tend to overfill the round mold becasue the fill holes are not very large but then pour out the overflow. I was concerned that the round mold would empty as I poured the excess water out, but was pleasantly surprised that the water stays inside the round molds! The round ice comes out very easily. I use purified water which seems to make the cubes more clear in appearance. Excellent product.

The round ball tray you could only fill up half full. Didn't see the point of using it. The square tray gives bigger ice cubes. I would just make it a 12-cube tray instead of six. That would be my improvement. Easy to empty out, as the tray is silicone.

From the pictures it looked like the ice spheres would be baseball size but they're actually on ping pong ball size. In the instructions it says to fill up to 80% but with the halves separated. That made half a ping pong ball size... so then, I sealed both halves and filled it 80%. Still didn't create a full sphere and the sphere tray lacks stability (1 star)In the other hand, the cube-like shape is great. Size, stability of tray are perfect (5 star) and "ease of removal" is a 3 out 5, hence, overall 3 stars

I wanted large ice cubes for my water bottles and these do the trick perfectly. I use a measuring cup to fill the round ones and that is helpful. I am very happy with these molds.

The round ones suck
