Berlinzo Clear Ice Cube Maker Mold - Combo 2+2 Crystal Clear Ice Cubes & Balls - Ice Square Maker Mold, Pure Round Ice Spheres for Whiskey, Cocktails & Bourbon (Non-electric)

This was one of the best gifts I got my husband. The value for money is great! Ice quality after freezing is clear and spheres and cubes are easily removable from the mold. Would buy again for another gift.

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.

Awesome product. Makes crystal clear ice. I liked it so much I purchased one for my brother!

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.

No great quality

There has to be a better way to remove these from the container. Sure if we let it sit for a couple hours on the counter things get easier, but sometimes you want those cubes/balls right now. Getting clear ice is a snap. I noticed in these reviews people don’t understand the science behind clear ice. It has very little to do with hard water or soft water or RO water or filtered water. Clear ice freezes directionally. It must freeze in one direction, whether it is from the bottom up or the top down. A regular ice cube tray freezes in all directions so the result is less clear. This gadget allows freezing from the top down so you cannot toss the foam container as one reviewer suggested.

Plastic mold was stuck to styrofoam after first couple uses. Noticed a crack in the plastic that was leaking water in between the parts. The worse part is that I've contacted support twice (website support form & Berlinzo support email), in the past month, and have not received any replies despite them claiming that they "try" to respond within 24 hours. I only used this product a few times and now it is practically useless. The few sets of Cubes and balls I was able to freeze were decent but the product is of cheap quality and their service is sadly nonexistent. Boo on you, Berlinzo!

We were skeptical, but this works great. We follow the directions of boiling water and allowing it to cool to 100 degrees and have perfect results. The balls melt a little more quickly than the cubes, but still lasted longer than my old fashioned!

Gelo perfeito

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

I love the results.... but if you let the bottom part freeze, they are amazingly hard to melt. No easy come out for the bottom part if completely frozen. I like having 2 squares and 2 round ice. They are a little bigger than my other brand I have making 4 square ice. the 2 round are simply AMAZING and PERFECT. I wish I can do 4 rounds at a time... chears....

I really love the ice cubes and balls we’ve been able to make with this Berlinzo ice mold, though it’s definitely requiring of quite a bit of effort and time to get good results. The ice mold itself is quite expensive, and I was a little surprised that for the price point the outer portion of the whole thing was unprotected styrofoam. (I am now aware that the brand also has a “Premium” line, where there appears to be another outer plastic box piece that is branded and nicer looking - ultimately, this is just an added piece overtop of the styrofoam, but it may mean a longer life for the ice mold overall.) The mold itself is pretty bulky, but it fits nicely on the shelf in our fridge freezer. I do understand that the size and additional space below the cube/ball portions are what allow you to create super clear ice, so this cannot be bypassed. The silicone molds are sturdy and while not super easy to remove once frozen, they are much easier to remove than I’d have expected, and if you let the mold sit on the counter for a couple minutes that can make it easier as well. It definitely took a couple tries to get really consistently great ice, but now that I know where to fill the “ball side” to (the marks that are supposed to be there really aren’t obvious), we have been getting consistent ice balls. The cube side can be used with or without the added inserts that imprint words on the ice cubes, and those are open at the top, so much easier to fill when the cube mold is already in place. This can’t be done effectively for the ice balls though. We purchase 5 gallon bottled water for drinking/cooking with, as our tap water at home is not drinkable. We use that water - filtered spring water - without additional filtering, and have gotten the clearest ice we’ve ever experienced. I tend to always start with room temperature water, though it’s possible a particular water temp could help or hinder your end result. Would I repurchase? Now that we’ve been using this mold for a few weeks, I think I likely would because we’ve come to really love the ice cubes/balls it produces. It definitely requires more effort than your typical ice cube trays, but the result is pretty awesome and makes for a really enjoyable experience.

Crystal-clear ice spheres that look classy, melt slowly, and make every drink feel top-shelf.
