12 Pack Reusable Ice Cubes for Drinks, Quick Freeze Reusable Water Bottle Ice Stick BPA Free, Washable Plastic Clear Ice Cubes for Whiskey, Wine, Coffee (Transparent)

I use these because the ice maker in my freezer stopped working. These rods are a good substitute to open trays of ice cubes, which can spill before they freeze and then pick up off tastes from the rest of the freezer. I put these in the bin where the ice cubes would have collected and they freeze quickly. I like their shape as they work well in tall thin glasses where ice cubes get in the way. They sink about 70% in liquid so their shape does a good job of exposing the frozen material inside to the drink. They don't dilute the drink as they melt. It's easy to clean and refreeze them. If I had to find a knock, its that they don't melt that fast when placed in a drink, which means they aren't chilling the drink as quickly as might be optimal. On the upside they keep drinks cool/cold longer than naked ice cubes, though the drink doesn't get as cold as with naked ice. Overall I am please with these and use them every day. They are a good alternative to making ice cubes in trays.

Just pop a couple of these in your drink and it cools it right down without watering it down. They say they’re dishwasher safe, but I don’t know if they could handle repeated dishwashing.

They don't stay froze long. I have a different reusable type that stays froze a long time. It must have some other liquid mixed with the water. These seem to only be water in them....they melt quicker.

These keep my water bottle cold all day at work even in the middle of summer.

These do not get your water ice cold like ice cubes. They warm pretty quickly. After putting 8 in a water bottle, I will go back to regular ice.

Perfect for water bottles and won't dilute your drink.

I use a stainless steel glass 30 OzI arrange them in my glass all the way around and then put the little cubes on top and fill it with ice water or tea. It stays cold 20 hrs. I only use Simple Modern cups. I have never gone over 20 hours.

Doesn’t keep water cold even for half an hour.
