The hexagonal prism tray was hard to get the ice out of because it was rubber. All rubber ice trays are like that. Plus, who ever needs all the ice at the same time? It's more convenient to be able to remove one ice at a time than have all the ice fall out when you're trying to get a few pieces for a water bottle.

I bought a pair of silicone ice trays not long ago . . . the thing doesn't have a raised lip around the outside, so I'm always spilling when filling. And the ice chambers are using a common wall, so there's not nearly as much play to twist the thing and get them to pop out as you would think with silicone. Furthermore, the water would expand irregularly into the flexible walls, meaning that the cubes would bulge into the neighboring pockets and make removal difficult. Each cube fit into the next like a key into a lock. And - as if that weren't enough - with no void space between cubes, just the one silicone wall, there wasn't enough play in the tray to get air in behind the cubes, so they got held in by suction. I literally had to push and pull each cube out individually. I went back to my cracked, leaking dollar store tray after just one batch. :/

"you do not normally take all the ice cubes out at once. If you only need a couple for your glass" Is there a rule for how many ice cubes to take out at a time? Ice bins are made so that they can hold the ice from several batches of ice at a time. That's not going to happen if the ice isn't dumped out of the tray. And I always fill glasses with ice, not just a couple cubes.

Nice review, just about icecube trays, but they are a thing so it had to be done :-) About OXO, I work in the medical field and they design their gears for people with disabilities or lower stress on hands and joins. The ice tray seems to follow that same principle. Covered to avoid spill for people that have trouble staying stable, and zero effort emptying for the same reason. I love their product because of their mindset all about ease of use and confort. Check out the salad spinner!!!

I have pretty much OXO everything in my kitchen. Their products are all well made, well designed, perform better, and last longer than other cheaper alternatives (pricier ones too). I just cannot justify their ice cube trays at $10 each when the $3 Rubbermaid ones work just as well and are similarly easy to twist if you let them sit out a minute first.
@danielleanderson63714 жыл бұрын
I have their salad spinner and it's honestly terrific for drying off produce. For science I threw a wet rag in there for a spin and was pretty surprised at how much water it got out. It's also really easy to clean, and the giant button is kinda fun to mess with. I don't buy all OXO, since they're 7/10 for pretty much everything and I can often find a better brand for individual items, but if I don't care to dig through reviews or just want to quickly grab something at the store OXO is pretty reliable.

13:50 ... To be fair not every one wants all the ice out at one time, some people like to use a few cubes at a time and leave the rest in the tray and just have two trays, one for use and one for freezing while the other gets low, Silicon molds are great for that purpose since you can easily control how many you get out at a time and don't accidentally dump the entire thing onto your counter when all you wanted was 4 cubes for your drink. Between all the ones in that video if I didn't have an ice maker in my fridge I would have 2-3 of the dollar store ones and 1-2 of a silicon mold one, the 2-3 cheap ones for when I have people over and need more ice at once, then the 1-2 silicon mold ones for normal use for just myself when I want a few cubes and not a full tray. I have a pumpkin and skull shaped ice trays that are silicon that both make small cubes that work perfect, I think my sister got them from a dollar store during a Halloween. That's just personal preference, then again when I get drinks from fast food I either ask for no ice or light ice, I am not a big ice person.

@@2lmdi a quarter would translate to about $7.50, I've seen these trays for $10 to $12. But that is still more. Technically speaking stainless steal and aluminum have dropped in price, my best guess is a common tactic seen with higher grade materials. Most people don't know the price difference between plastic and metal, so stores will sell them at much higher prices then they are worth. A lot of people have this "the more it cost the better it is" mentality, so they spend more then needed. Another place this is seen is how Apple will sell a iPhone using $300 in material for $1200. People see the iPhone costs more then the other phone, so it must mean it's better, but in actuality it's the same or worse then other cheaper priced phones.
