Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OXO Good Grips Ice Cube Tray
Customer Review: does what i needed
Summary: 4 Stars
i got this item for freezing baby food in just right portions while keeping them freezer burn free. i have had this product now for over a month and am extremely satisfied with it. the tray is easily bendable to pop the food cubes out. it does an excellent job keeping freezer burn out up to about three weeks, which i usually pop them out by then anyway and store in ziploc freezer bags. i have no complaints really from this product other than the lid can sometimes be hard to maneuver on and off, although i think that is b/c i am using them to freeze food and not ice.Customer Review: Ice cube tray so fancy you can't use it
Summary: 1 Stars
I LOVE OXO items. They make some great products, unfortunatly they make some bad ones too. This is a bad one. I bought this so store leftover chicken stock in (I saw someone making leftover stock into stock cubes and saving it for another day). Well I filled up the tray and started to put the lid on, which make the stock start spilling out. After fighting with if for like a mintue I decided, well there is no way I'm going to be able to carry this perfectly level across the kitchen so keep it from spilling so I gave up. OXO should discontinue this item.Customer Review: Good concept poor design
Summary: 1 Stars
The idea of covering ice cubes so that they don't evaporate (a problem in frostless refrigerator/freezers) and don't pick up strange odors is a good one. However, the cube trays in Oxo's design are too shallow and the lid is very rigid. The lid does not slide closed at the outset and once frozen it doesn't slide open. It's a struggle to try to slide or clamp the lid onto the tray a good bit of water spills. After one use in the freezer, the lid seems to have warped a bit so that I have to force it as flat as I can while lining up the lid with the tray.Customer Review: Great item if you like spills and mopping up water
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this tray on a Gold Box special as I needed new trays and this one sounded like it would solve a couple of problems with the lid feature. Well, the lid works to keep the ice from evaporating (subliming) and makes stacking easier, but filling the tray and getting it to the freezer makes a mess! The shape does not allow multiple ice pockets to fill, and the V-center makes a perfect ditch for water to run down, out and onto the counter, floor, and into the freezer. Luckily, the item was inexpensive as it went into the trash can following one use.Customer Review: Water, Water Everywhere!! I wanted to rate it 0 stars....
Summary: 1 Stars
I couldn't hate this product more. There is no way to fill tray or close the lid without sloshing water everywhere. Then the very short trip to the fridge usually results in more dripping.
1. Make the lid watertight
2. Make the lid removable by either sliding or popping off if the slide area is obstructed.
3. Do something about that weird slant the trays have that doesn't allow the water to flow smoothly between cube spaces as you fill it. Usually resulting in overflow & spillage from the spaces you've already filled.
