Highest Rated (4.6 Star) Highest Capacity (Ten 2" Cubes) Clear Ice Tray - What Beats BEST and MOST?

First review on here, and that is because I am just so blown away by this product. I run a cocktail bar, and though I wish we had the space and resources for a cline bell system, we just don't. I have not been blown away by 2" cubes made from molds - they are fine for home but not in a commercial setting imo. I have tried many methods over the years and most are either too time or space consuming. But when I went into a local restaurant and ordered a cocktail, I was amazed by the 2" cube in the glass. I asked the manager how the heck he managed to pull this off - it was clearly not from a mold, no pun intended, and I was curious if there was someone distributing cline bell cut ice in the area. He showed me the Clearly Frozen tray and I couldn't believe it. It seemed too good to be true. There are many products on the market that claim to make quality cubes, but it's mostly marketing, so I was suspicious. But I did the due diligence and read about the product. When I saw an endorsement from Camper English, I felt very excited. I ordered my Clearly Frozen tray on a Monday, and by Wednesday I had beautiful, clear, and perfectly square 2" cubes. It is very easy to use if you follow the instructions carefully. I had a question about storage and their customer service was quick and helpful. This product is fantastic. Whether you are a home bartender or a professional, it will give you what you need. The dilution rates are what you would expect in a professional environment and everything about the design is well thought out. I am going to order more to ramp up my production and I can not wait for their collins spears to be available. If this seems over the top, consider that for a great cocktail there is nothing more important than water and ice. This will take your cocktails to the next level both aesthetically and functionally. One hack I will share is that to store the cubes after you make them, they fit perfectly in a cardboard 6 pack sleeve from Q (separate shout out but Q makes the best tonics and mixers on the market) and cut the sleeves down to 2" height and then they are stackable. If you are making this for a bar, you will obviously need a freezer, but if you are serious about ice you probably already have one.

I bought this ice mold because I was looking to make clear ice. It has good reviews and the price was good compared to the competition. I liked this ice mold because it was more compact than others and seemed easier to use. The product makes nice, clear ice cubes as it is supposed to do. I like it so much that after buying the mold for the 2 inch cubed ice I ordered from the manufacturer's web site the silicone mold for the smaller ice cubes. That mold works equally as well. I make several batches of ice and store them in the freezer until I need to make more. These ice cubes melt slower than normal freezer ice and look way better. My wife loves the clear ice too and uses the smaller cubes in her other cocktails. The owner is very responsive to questions and wrote to me directly. I definitely recommend this clear ice mold.

This ice maker works perfectly as advertised. I've attempted to make clear ice using a small cooler with limited results. ClearlyFrozen uses a tried and true method to produce clear ice but this product makes it super easy and convenient. My Manhattans are cold and beautiful. Cheers! Highly recommend.

Excellent product. Easy to used. Great design. Works as described. Loving the clear ice and process. Purchased multiple of each size to use in our bar. Customers have complimented the clear ice elevating the cocktails. Worth the investment!!

Ice clarity 8/10: the ice is pretty clear but you can still see some bubbles and there’s some irregularity to the shape. But once in a glass with a drink, it’s hard to see the imperfections and it looks very nice. Ease of use 7/10: Their is a little bit of a learning curve to get the ice cubes out and it requires a lot of patience at first. This method of ice making will create a block of “waste ice” about 1.5” thick that is stuck underneath the silicone ice tray. You have to get this off somehow. I use a kitchen hammer and some hot water. If you want the convenience of just popping ice out of a tray— this might not be for you. The Dexas Iceology tray is much easier to use but it only makes two cubes at a time. Durability ?/10: This remains to be seen. There is an inner plastic liner that I could foresee probably cracking in time. And getting the ice out requires some manhandling of the silicone tray which could potentially tear at some point. We shall see…

Works better than I expected! Easy to use and makes beautiful clear cubes. The basic set comes with one mold, which makes very big cubes. They're perfect for low-ball/rocks glass. I just ordered an additional mold for tall spears for thinner, taller glasses. If you want clear ice this a great, affordable system.

Great product; I've used it for about 10 cycles already and am so pleased with the clarity of the cubes that I just ordered a second rack for smaller cubes. It requires a little wrestling to get the cubes out of the rubber, which may mean I haven't developed my technique (any suggestions from other users welcome; I'll loop back to look). One observation, not a criticism, is that about one in 15 or so ice cubes are pushed out of the rack earlier in the freezing process, yielding a cube that is about twice as tall as the others. A little too tall for an old-fashioned glass, but still quite usable. I agree with others that, to avoid some fracturing of the cube's edges when splashed with brown liquors immediately after pulling it from the freezer, letting the cube sit in the glass for a minute or two avoids that aesthetic defect. I bought a WinterSmith freezer years ago, but it made one spherical ball at a time; too slow for my rate of consumption. The ClearlyFrozen method works very well and seems to be very durable. I stretch the rubber tray pretty aggressively and it seems to handle it. Good stuff, and I like the Massachusetts vibe of their communications, too (I'm living in Tennessee these days).

This is so easy to use. Follow the supplied directions if you need to, though, it's fairly well implied as to what needs to be done, and it's that easy. I have left mine in for a couple days and the whole thing freezes, that makes it a little more difficult to remove the silicon from the ice black but a little warm water fixes that in a few minutes. I have other clear ice makers, one that does 2 at a time, it takes about 30 hours and it was over 80 bucks! This one is less than a third of that, makes 10 at a time and it just easier to use. The seller also contacted me after the purchase to make sure I had no issues or questions, that's awesome. This makes beautiful 2 inch cubes, in about 18-20 hours, with very little effort. Cleaning is a breeze as well, just a little warm water and soap and it's done. I've made 7 or 8 batches so far and I actually have more ice than drinks, I don't get that with my old one. I'm going to be buying a couple more and have them shipped to friends.
