Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is Oxo's second try at a covered ice cube tray. I previously bought the first version (which is still being sold at half the price of this new one), and while I thought it was the best of what was out there, it was still prone to spills and therefore messy to refill. But as they say, "if you don't succeed at first..." and Oxo has delivered ice cube tray perfection this time around. Seriously--if you need ice cube trays then just stop reading now and go buy this. But for those who'd like to know why it's so great, I'll tell you: 1) The anti-spill lid works easily and exactly as advertised: fill the tray, smooth the lid down with your hand, tilt the tray to pour off excess water and you're ready to go. It simply does not leak after that, even when you tilt it beyond Oxo's recommended maximum angle. Honestly, I questioned if this system really could work, and it's like watching a magic trick. Very impressive solution! 2) The silicone lid protects against evaporation and freezer odors, lifts easily when you need to get cubes, and reseals the tray just as easily. 3) The new lid gives the trays a lower height than other trays, so you can stack more in the same amount of space. I can now fit five trays in the same space where I could only fit four of the old Oxo trays. Also, the ability to store a newly filled tray at an angle give you additional options for more storage. 4) The no spill system also works well if you just want to partly refill a tray to replace a few missing cubes. Bottom Line: this tray is the next best thing to having an automatic ice maker. If there's a way to improve it, I have no idea what that would be. Bravo, Oxo, for taking another swing at this product and hitting this one out of the park! Thanks for taking the time to read my review and I hope you find it helpful in making a purchase decision.
