Piper and Olive Whiskey Ice Cube Trays - Ice Ball Maker Mold with Lid - Combo - Molds Six Large Ice Cubes and Ice Balls For Whiskey, Bourbon, and Cocktails - Set of 2

The ice cubes are exactly what they say on the "tin," they're 2 inch ice cubes, they work great, melt slowly, and are extremely easy to get out of the silicone ice tray by simply pushing on the bottom. Just make sure that one of the edges of the ice doesn't catch on the silicone as you're pushing or it'll tear, that happened to me with my last silicone ice cube tray which is why I needed a replacement, these.The balls aren't quite as big as 2 inches, but 1.85 is nearly there and they're still pretty large and work better for glasses/cups with tapered bottoms than the cubes do. They also melt slowly and work well. The tray, however, is a little tricky.The bottom has a little lip which goes up into the top of each half of the balls, you need to make sure this lip is fully pressed into the top or water will leak out, if that happens the top is likely to just sort of float, so make sure that the top is pressed nice and tight into the bottom and the lip is pressed into the top by pressing around the edges of the empty sphere once you push the top and bottom together. Then once you're sure it's nice and pressed together you can fill it.Try not to bend the sphere tray while it's full of water as this can cause leaking and cause the bottom to come out of the top and no longer seal, thus letting water leak into the in-between space and draining the affected ball mold. The little lip on the bottom ball molds is a good design that works well to help mitigate leakage that the ball mold would have otherwise, but you have to be a little more careful with the ball mold than the cube mold, it's just a flaw of the overall design as a whole, silicone is soft and pliant so there's not a great way to keep the water from leaking out of the molds into the in-between space without the little lip, yet if the mold were hard and the lip snapped into place as if it were hard plastic then they'd be very difficult to get out. So as long as you into this purchase ready to be a tiny bit extra careful with the ball molds then you'll be able to enjoy ball ice as well as cubed!

Very difficult to get them filled properly. Therefore, you end up making a mess or have partially filled spheres.

Need large pieces of ice for a very warm work-place where I have to supply my own water. Works well with my large mouthed nalgene. Doesn't stay quite as cool as I hoped in this 48 ounce bottle, so am using two at a time which works quite well. Intuitive, much easier to use than I anticipated after reading the reviews. Ice ball comes out easily in a very perfectly round globe. Love it!

The thing I like the most is the square cubes are the perfect size for my bourbon drinks, the spheres are a tad bit small and not the easiest to fill but manageable. Good product for the money.

“Absolutely love my new Ice Cube trays and doing business with this seller was great. Got exactly what I ordered and not some cheap knock off.”

The balls don't lock. Water goes everywhere. The four ball tray works much better. The squares are great. I would not recommend this set. Definitely opt for the four ball tray👍🏻

Easy to fill....I used a small funnel and it worked great. The cubes lasted for several hours . Also the large size it wasn't necessary to use a lot of ice. I tried using three per 22oz cup and they lasted much longer than regular cubes. Would make fun popcycles for the kids.

The cube came out perfectly. But the sphere doesn't really work.
