Perfect for me!
They work as advertised. They're small, lightweight, and flexible, but still has durability. I like being able to stack them and how convenient it is to just put them someone where in the freezer. The ice cubes are small but there's a ton you can use. I use about half a tray for my iced coffee and just fill it back up. I don't think I've even used both trays at a time. Happy with the purchase!

Good product for the money
They arrived quickly, and were packaged well. The lids for the trays arrived stuck together, and it took a bit to get them apart without tearing the silicone.The lids don't "snap" on, they simply lay on top of the tray, to allow for stacking. The seller cautions about overfilling, so I fill the trays, and set them down on the counter (at the sink's edge), and sort of "scrape" over the surface of the tray, brushing excess water into the sink. Then, I put the lids on and pop them into the freezer. The bases are stronger than you'd think, so it is pretty easy to hold/carry them. They don't wobble about like some silicone trays or pans do.The "cubes" (they are actually polygon shaped) are smaller than I expected. Each cube is, roughly, the diameter of a US quarter, and the height of a US nickel. I'm not sure why I thought they'd be a bit bigger. Maybe it was the photo of the hand holding the tray that read bigger to me. They are not so small that they will disappear the minute you put them into your drink.I could see filling these with herb butters and freezing them. Or juice cubes, so as to not water down your drink. It could probably even work for chocolates, but I know nothing about that, so don't take my advice on it!The item description talks of letting the trays sit outside of the freezer for a minute before you try to take the ice out of the trays: this is great advice. I tried to empty the trays immediately, and this proved difficult. After a minute on the counter, I was able to slide them out. Because the trays form a complete barrier around the ice as it freezes, the cubes dont just fall out of the tray; you need to sort of "poke" them out from the bottom.I would definitely say these are a good deal for the money. They do what they say they do, and the result is more than satisfactory.

Cute shape
The shape is cute but the ice is a little difficult to remove. I’ll continue to use it but not as often as others I have.

Great ice trays, but...
I like the flexibility of these trays since they won't crack like plastic but there are some niggly bits. First, the cubes don't just fall out right from the freezer. For best results, dip the bottom of the tray into just tap cold water. They'll release perfectly. Second is the odor. They smell like a new garden hose and that odor will convey to the ice in the first probably 10 or 15 runs in the freezer. Even if you wash them in hot soapy water, the odor will be discernable. It won't harm you but it may be off-putting until those cycles of use have passed. The odor does fade over time and I really don't know of a quick way to get rid of that problem.Edit: After doing some Googling, I found an effective way to remove the odor from these and it's quite simple. Here goes: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the empty trays on it with the covers beside them, not on top. Put the baking sheet in a preheated 350-F oven for about 20 minutes. When the time is up, give them a sniff test (be careful, they're going to be hot). If there's no more smell, let them cool and return to use. Otherwise put the sheet back in the oven for another 10 minutes or so and repeat the smell test. Do the last steps until the odor disappears. They will not melt. If you are trying this with other trays, make sure they don't have rubber or plastic in them or you'll be cleaning a sticky hot mess.

Finally a Useable Ice cube Tray
I've had a silicone ice cube tray for a while, but I never enjoy using it because the cubes are so deep and they are nearly impossible to get out.This tray solved all my problems to be honest. The cube trays are a great shape and depth so I'm getting a decent sized cube, but not so large they don't fit in some of my cups. It is sooooo much easier to pop these out of the mold! They come out with a small push and I haven't accidentally popped out a whole bunch I didn't want.The lids are much more helpful than I imagined they would be. They don't fit on super snug, but having a little bit of a barrier between the water and the floor on the way to the freezer is pretty awesome. It also enables easy stacking which is a must in my small freezerI have yet to clean them, but I don't foresee any issues with that. If there are I will update.Honestly, they are good trays. I would buy them again

Weird coating that taints ice
These are disgusting. I got mine and was really excited. They function great. The silicone is nice and thick and the bottom is solid (not seperated into the honeycomb shape). They were easy to move from the counter to the freezer. Everything seemed perfect. The next day however, my son showed me his hydro flask and the lid and top of the cup (where he had drank down the water) was covered in a waxy type white film. I checked my own hydro flask and it was the same. I had washed these prior, very well, so they shouldn't have any sort of film. I checked reviews and saw others say the same thing. I decided to try an experiment and see if it was the ice or something else. I put about 3/4 of a tray of fresh made ice (using filtered and purified water from primo jugs) into a clean lidded cup. I washed the ice trays again, prior to filling them. I left it overnight and checked it today, when the ice was melted. There is a really thick layer of gross film on top of all the water. There is also chunks of something floating on top as well. I'm repulsed and honestly don't feel comfortable using these. They're immediately going back.
