Clear Ice Cubes

I am so happy with this clear-ice maker! It’s easy to use and small enough to fit in my available freezer space. Quality and design are great. I filled with warm water right out of my tap at a low enough flow rate so that the faucet’s aerator didn’t kick in. I let the whole thing sit for a few minutes, then put it in my freezer for 36 hours. The ice cubes are perfect and perfectly clear. They pop out easily by pushing up on the bottom of the mold. In my photo, the left cube is regular ice, and the right cube is my first attempt with this clear ice maker.

Clear ice balls as advertised. Simple to use and looks goods

Pros: - It makes good clear round ice. These are ~ 2 inch round and easily fits in a standard old fashioned glass/lowball or even a smaller whiskey glass. The glasses in my pictures are about 3.5" tall x 2.75" diameter aka not a true standard old fashioned glass/lowball or 3.5" high x 3.25" diameter. - Worked great with my well water with softener. I used water straight from the facet set to cold for these pictures. I did not use filtered water, but if I do, I may come back and post an update. - It's easy to fill with water. See fill Instructions below for more information. - It's easy to remove the molds. See removal instructions below for more information. - Makes 8 ice rounds in one go. - Works great to stack in a highball glass for other cocktails. - Noticeable difference in my old fashions as the ice melts. Less mineral or diluted tasting. I feel like the rounds has to melt more compared to normal ice from any standard mold I own that are the same size before the cocktail tastes less potent. - I also feel like they do melt a bit slower compared to standard ice. I can finish the cocktail and usually be able to make another before the cube is gone but that's subjective to how fast the drink goes down 😁. Cons: **personal opinion** if you disagree with the below, rate it 4.5 to 5 stars. - The giant ice block at the bottom seems a bit waisted. You can let sit for a few than take out and store for other drinks like big batch punch or tea when hosting. Wish it had another mold at the bottom to turn it into cubes, rounds...something instead of a giant rectangle for reuse. True Ice molds do this with their cubes and I find it a very nice touch. However, their cubes can be a bit more "fun" to remove 🤷. Fill Instructions: You fill the unit until ~2 inches from the top, place the molds inside the unit. If water does not flow from the top as shown in one of my pictures, you need to top off with more water by filling through one of the holes. It doesn't take long at all. Removal: As stated earlier, to help with removal try to stay within the instructions limits. I usually let mine go for 24 -28hrs without any issues. Could probably do 30 without much fuss. Pull one handle of the mold out. I usually pull one of the ends first than the middle. For the big block of ice at the bottom. I usually let sit for a few minutes on the counter than dump into the sink or store for later uses like big batch tea when having guests. Other: Material, like many other molds that use silicon, can be a dust magnet. Not really a con but fair warning for those that would store this sitting out instead of in a cabinet or drawer.

Glad I ended up getting this one. Was looking at the more expensive alternatives, but for budget reasons, I went with this one because of the other reviews and because the price was right. Happy I didn't spend the extra $20+ because this works just fine! I've gotten some great results. Ice comes out nice and clear, and the mold is holding up nicely after moderate use. Fits really nicely in my freezer. I'm a hobby mixologist and mostly just experiment and mix drinks for friends and family, so I wasn't looking to drop a ton of money. Just needed something other than my fridge ice maker because that just wasn't cutting it.

This is awesome! Legitimately took it out of the box, filled it with water and stuck it in the freezer. The next day I had eight high quality crystal clear ice cubes. They are totally clear, no BS, no tricks or crazy instructions. I've seen videos on YouTube explaining how you can cut a cooler open, drill holes into it, etc., but this produces absolutely perfect clear ice cubes for less than the price of even a mini cooler. The clear ice melts slower so it doesn't water you drink down, it won't change the taste of your drinks like cloudy ice does, and it looks so much higher quality having a drink with clear ice. Definitely recommend!

Makes almost clear cubes (1st 2 pics) but can't compete with the 4-cube mold result (3rd pic) from the people who started it all at the company I cant name here (first part of their name starts with the name of the 4th season, second part is the most common last name around). In comparison to that other company's 4-cube maker, the price is notably lower and I can make twice as many cubes, though the mold and flimsy cover mean it's easy to spill water everywhere as you move it to the freezer (don't put in a freezer drawer - It will spill water all over if you need to get anything else out of the drawer and inadvertently move the mold b4 the water is frozen. I'll keep it around to make a batch of 'economy-class' cubes for large parties but for the times I'm wanting to present a truly 1-st class cocktail, I'm sticking with that 'other' company's 4-cube maker.

It takes a day or so but is worth it to have the big, clear ice cubes this unit produces.

Great product. The ice balls are clear and nicely formed. You can get the balls out at a day and a half if you push it, but I would recommend that you freeze the maker for three days, that way you can use the layer of ice at the bottom for square icy chunks.

Got the Cube version. It's so nice, previously I was using those small little round spheres, and I go through them so quickly. Now I make 8 cubes at a go, and only need 1 to cool anything most of the time. I "refill" the ice less often, and so easy to pop. Leave it out for 3-5mins and just vloops right out. It does take a huge freezer space but one of my better gadget purchases for sure.

Funciona correctamente, la claridad del hielo depende de que tan bien se sigan las instrucciones que vienen en el producto

For the same price Berlinzo makes a superior product with a hard outer shell over the foam cooler providing further insulation, and includes air tight bags to store finished ice in.

Tap water, clear ice first time. Fantastic, but be aware slow freezing is the trick, so 48 hours is required. Nice big cubes, crystal clear.

Este producto sin duda es fantástico y lo recomiendo por lo siguiente: buen precio, exelentes materiales de construcción, fácil de desmoldar, buena cantidad de cubos de hielo y exelente tamaño de los cubos. Puntos negativos Material del aislamiento, si bien es de buena calidad recomiendo ponerle una cobertura o forrarlo como yo con cinta amarilla/negra, esto para evitar que se maltrate o se le adhiera el agua. Demaciado agua, al final tendrás 8 cubos y un bloque grande de hielo, pero mira lo podrás usar para enfriar vibras que no requieran un hielo transparente o enfriar latas en tu hielera . Resumen: 3B 100% recomendado.
