The Dclobtop 3-pack features a hybrid construction that combines a rigid polypropylene frame with flexible thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) or silicone bottom reservoirs. This design is built to prevent the "wave" effect of water sloshing while you move the tray, while still making it simple to eject the cubes. With a total of 42 cubes across the three trays, it provides a high volume of ice for drinks like iced coffee or cocktails.
Specifications indicate that the lids are friction-fit, which helps with stacking and organization but does not provide a 100% hermetic seal. To maintain the build quality and avoid warping the lids, it is recommended to wash them by hand or on the top rack of the dishwasher. Tests show that the silicone bottoms may absorb some freezer odors over six months or more, which can be mitigated with a deep cleaning using a vinegar solution.
The material remains flexible in sub-zero environments, though users should avoid aggressive twisting of the frame to prevent stress marks on the polymer. This set is a practical choice for households that need to maximize freezer space, as the lids allow for stable vertical stacking. It offers a straightforward, reliable experience for users who want to avoid the frustration of ice getting stuck in traditional rigid trays.
For those who prefer smaller, 37-grid hexagonal ice for a unique look, the Bidful 37-grid silicone trays are a high-density alternative.
