Great product

Ok, so this thing is pretty awesome. I'm a big fan of how the top rim is reinforced. It makes removing the block alot easier because the rest of the mold sort of collapses while peeling it out. I run water along the outside of the mold immediately after removing it from the freezer, and the ice pretty much comes right out with a little maneuvering. Without running water over it you will need to let it sit. It's alot of ice. It's easier to get this 10-12lb ice block out than some of my silicone whiskey stone molds. Look at the dimensions...these blocks are BIG. You can build an igloo with these. I'm actually looking at getting a small deep freeze just to accommodate ice blocks. Is that bad?? I put a single block in a roto molded ice chest with 60lbs of bag ice in 50° weather and after 4 days there is literally only a tablespoon of water in the bottom. Wild. The ONLY knock I have is that the blocks have been coming out with a bulge in the bottom. If you look at the picture out of the mold closely you can see it. I'm not knocking my rating though because I think it has to do with my freezer shelves giving under weight. The bulge significantly reduced when I put it on the more sturdy bottom shelf. I'll keep experimenting to find what I'm sure is the solution for a perfectly rectangular block. Just buy it, but I warn you...you will run out of room and be looking at another freezer just like me. Hope the tips help.

It works well. It is a little difficult to get block out of the form. I let it sit for about an hour after I take it out of the freezer and it comes out much easier. I would prefer a rigid form instead of the flexible form. However, I am very satisfied overall with this product. The difficulty with getting it out of the form is why I gave it four stars instead of five.

Nice to have found how to DIY block ice. So far it's working well!!!! We put 2 blocks in cooler on Thursday morning and it's now Sunday and they are still plenty frozen still. Happy customer:)

Cover was great

As another reviewer noted, these are so easy to get out of the mold. Nothing like the nightmare bourbon ball ice molds. Just peel one end down and out it comes. I use these to keep beverages cold in a cooler. Works much better and longer than ice cubes! If you are buying to make an igloo, I have not had much success with making a perfect rectangle. Bumpy on top and usually not flat on the bottom. Could be my limited freezer space.

I have made 6 blocks of ice so far and all is well. Great value in the long run. I like the large size compared to similar but smaller items I have seen.
