YD XINHUA Large Square Ice Cube Trays (2-Pack) - 2-Inch Big Silicone Ice Molds with 6 Flexible Cavities for Whiskey & Cocktails | Reusable, BPA-Free Ice Maker to Keep Drinks Chilled | Perfect for Home Bars, Parties & Outdoor Gatherings

Love it! I like the big cubes, and they come out of the silicone mold waaay easier than some other ones I have. These just slip right out! I drink lots of water and these big cubes keep my water cold for hours in my contigo cup. Will probably order more.These large cube trays are awesome!!! The ice pops right out …… no plastic smell from the trays either. I am going to get a few more !!!I've had these about 8 months. I like the size of this cube for my tastes.The silicon trays are bit quirky. The tray won't hold safely it's own weight when full. This means you cannot use one hand to open the freezer door while holding the tray in another.Unlike old trays, there is no convenient way to make the water depth symmetrical for all cubes unlike your standard factory issued cube trays. Filling them evenly is a learned art.The trays will sit atop each other, though this is where the art of filling them becomes crucial. You must learn how to fill them below the top (and still enough for large cubes) otherwise the top tray will sit in the water of the bottom tray. NOT good for preventing ice contamination. In Russia, it is uncommon to serve ice with beverages. Perhaps they know the risk.Someone's review questioned the bottom being indented and not flat and square. That is a good design that makes the cubes easier to remove. If you're a 'square', these won't meet your demands.My only complaint about these trays is that they are beveled on the bottom edge so the cubes are not actually cubes, they are are decahedrons. It is minor I admit, but the poor aesthetics of the ice bother me every time I go to put one in a glass to the point where I make sure to put it bevels down so they are less visible.Really good for drinks but also makes bacon wrapped meatballs real easy to make.Love these great for those special drinksIt makes huge ice cubes which are great for cocktails. Not as easy as I thought it would be to get the cubes out but not enough to complain. Maybe a little too flexible when filled.Like that these whiskey cube trays are larger and make more in one use than most; they made good ice, but drawbacks are: (1) no lids/covers, so they are not stackable while the water is in process of freezing (I found others (also on Amazon) that make 6 cubes rather than 8 but have nice silicon-like lids so you can stack them) and (2) unlike other similar black whiskey ice trays I have used, these had a white/off-colored residue or oxidation of some sort that stained the trays after just ONE use that did not clean off/resolve after extensive cleaning. So now, after just one use, I am stuck with trays that are not returnable and I'm not sure are safe to continue to use. Will probably just put them in the trash.
