The Ultimate Ice Cube Maker Silicone Bucket with Lid Makes Small Size Nugget Ice Chips for Soft Drinks, Cocktail Ice, Wine On Ice, Crushed Ice Maker Cylinder Ice Trays, Ice Cup Maker Mold, Ice Holder

This was an unsatisfactory purchase as not only the ice a small, it's also very messy to use this product.You are supposed to pour water and press down the translucent container inside it to ensure the water freeze to the specific size but once pressed down it just comes back up despite numerous efforts. The lid is merely a silicon flap that can't shut the container tightly prevents the translucent container from popping back up.This might be the product for those who wants a semi-circle shaped ice. All in all the size of the ice is too small making the quantity required more and its not as functional.

Buenos materiales, sin embargo es un poco dificil de utilizar, ya que al llenar de agua, el bote interno tiende a subir y es dificil poner la tapa

Simple to operate

Our built in ice maker died years ago. For the past ten years, I've purchased my ice at the Steak n Shake drive thru near my house. But then, the pandemic hit, and Steak n Shake closed their doors. Panic set in... where am I to get my ice? I despise traditional ice cube trays as I find them messy, cumbersome, and they take up too much freezer space. So, while locked up with nowhere to go, I searched Amazon for ice making alternatives. I stumbled upon this little gadget. I'm going to be honest... I wasn't expecting to like it. But thought it was worth a shot. Man, was I wrong! This thing is AWESOME!! HAHA!! I LOVE IT!! Once I figured out how far to fill it to prevent spillage, it was absolute ice perfection! The water freezes quicker than traditional ice cube trays, and makes enough ice for about two hearty drink cups. The key to success is to figure out the right amount of water to fill so that it doesn't overflow when placing the plastic cylinder container into the silicone. Once you've got that, it's easy. Place the container in the freezer to freeze. Once frozen, remove the lid. I then give the container a few solid squeezes along the top rim to break the cylinder free, then pull on it to slide it out. You're then left with the silicone sleeve filled with ice cubes. I then squeeze the silicone sleeve, causing the cubes to pop out. I then dump them into a storage bucket in the freezer, and start all over again. Super simple. I don't typically write Amazon reviews, but I really like this product! It's well made too, so I expect to get years of use out of it. BEST QUARANTINE PURCHASE EVER!

My boyfriend has an ice problem. He wants it in every drink. I, however, have lived most of my adult life without ice in my freezer only occasionally buying a bag at the store for margarita nights. I should just buy one of the stupid machines but can't justify giving up the counter space for one.I always think ice from the freezer smells. I don't know why. I've cleaned and bleached and done everything I can. It just has a distinct "freezer" flavor. So I wanted something that could make ice but be "enclosed". This seemed like a great idea. It makes the ice. It stores the ice. It looks simple.Annnnnd it's complete garbage.First observation... when trying to fill the space between the cup and the silicone, the cup will try to float. You basically have to hold it in a way so that it is pushed against the bottom AND allows you to add water. Then, you have to try and put the lid on which somehow seems trickier when dealing with the floating interior cup. If you've added too much, it'll spill. If you haven't, it wont spill but you wont get any ice. The plus side? It freezes pretty quickly. After freezing, you squeeze the outside. This will cause the thin ice to break and release the interior cup. You can then squeeze the silicone cup to further break down the "cubes" inside before pouring them into the cup for storage. Keep in mind, if you decide to refill it you have to manage NOT to get water in the interior cup while filling or putting the lid on.Really, the only plus side is that it freeze quickly.The ice cubes this thing makes are like sharp little ice shards. And they're little, so they melt fast. I really tried to make it work, but for as annoying as I find it, I should have just bought the stupid machine that sits on the counter and makes ice in 7 minutes.

Way smaller than I thought it would be. It works as it should, you fill the silicone part with water while the white insert is in it freeze it remove the insert squeeze the silicone container and the ice comes out and you pour the ice into the white container. You only get one maybe two servings of ice ...not full glasses. The white insert gets frozen to the ice so I have to squeeze it a bit to get it out and I'm worried about breaking it and it's way smaller than I expected.
