BERLINZO Basic Crystal Clear Ice Ball Maker - 2 Balls, CIM_Basic_2Balls

This ice is very clear, it's nice for fancy drinks... machine is small so it makes easy access

It really works! I don't need to boil my water but I do use water from my filtered pitcher. I've made 5 batches now (4 cubes per batch, 2 cubic and 2 round). All are perfect. I remember seeing the instructions for building a similar device on the web but this is way more convenient and less bulky. I now have 20 cubes in the freezer and 4 more going in next. The holidays are covered. If you know anyone that loves clear ice this would make a great gift.

My husband loves this ice maker.

freeze from top to bottom, which is how you get the clear ice effect. After a bit of practice with water level and freezer placement, I started getting consistently clear cubes with very few bubbles. The mold is easy enough to fill and separate. The silicone has a good balance of flexibility and structure, so you can pop the cubes out without deforming the whole tray. The cubes are larger than standard ice tray cubes, and they melt more slowly, which is perfect for whiskey or mixed drinks where you do not want the flavor watered down too fast. The only minor note is that the mold takes up more room in the freezer than a basic tray, but the result is worth it.

Very straightforward and easy to use! Ice came out clear. I ordered the combination, cubes and spheres. The cubes are very large. Make sure to purchase glasses that have a wider opening to fit the 2X2 cubes. I give it 4 stars, because I did not see the cube size listed in the details. Other than that, I think this is a great product.
