Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lekue Silicone Ice Cube Tray, Heart
Customer Review: Easy to remove ice, not as easy to fill.
Summary: 4 Stars
Hi, I really enjoyed the product. It is really easy to remove ice from the tray by pressing from behind because the tray is just so flexible. On the other hand, the tray tends to be harder to fill in with water than standard trays because the small ice pockets are not interconnected like it happens in most ice trays, so you can't just hold it close to the faucet and let it fill in by itself. You need to keep moving it around so that it fills completely. This is not something that really bothers me, but it is does not make my life easy either. Anyway, it is a very good ice tray. Its flexibility in removing ice compensates it is supposedly difficulty in being filled with water.Customer Review: Love, love, love my icy hearts!
Summary: 5 Stars
These have made several batches of ice hearts for us already. We're set to try saving juice concentrates in them next, or mini fruit pops. They are extremely easy to pop out straight into a glass, and make for lovely additions to our party drinks. My own suggestion is that people who buy these have a very flat, easily accessible shelf in their freezers. Because of the silicone, they're not firm, and must be carefully held flat as they're transferred from the sink to the freezer, and laid completely flat to avoid spilling any water (or whatever else you want to put in them).Customer Review: Non-Silicone Ice Cube Tray
Summary: 4 Stars
If this tray is made out of silicone, it isn't the normal, heat resistant stuff that my potholders are made of, because the packaging contains warnings that you should not put anything hot on or near it. Other than that, it seems to be of a good quality, be just as pictured on the internet, and work better than traditional plastic trays for ice cubes. I am a little disappointed that because it isn't heat resistant it cannot double as a jell-o mold or candy mold, but there is a reason that they sell things specifically for molding candy and other hot substances.Customer Review: Durable and Doesn't Smell
Summary: 5 Stars
I have this silicon ice cube tray with heart shapes and I love it. It's really durable. I don't have the problem other reviewers mention with getting the cubes out, and I like the fact that the tray isn't (or hasn't yet) cracked like every other plastic tray I've used in my life. And I feel confident that I can get it clean when I wash it with regular dishwashing liquid - something I never really felt with plastic and metal trays. And the ice does not smell or taste funny, like I've read in reviews for other silicon ice cube trays.Customer Review: Not impressed.
Summary: 1 Stars
They look cute, don't they? Be warned... they are quite soft, and have nearly no edge to guard against spills. You either have to under-fill them or be extremely careful moving them around after you fill them with water.
Despite that, I was willing to work with them. Now I have two trays of ice... and I've so far gotten a total of two "cubes" worked free of them. Twisting, bending, pushing them from behind; nothing seems to work very well to get the ice out. I gave up when my skin started sticking to the ice.
