OXO Good Grips Ice Cube Tray
Our favorite ice tray
With easy-to-remove cubes and a lid that allows you to store the filled tray at an angle, Good Grips No Spill Ice Cube Tray is the best pick for most people (who don’t want to think about having to lay the tray flat in the freezer).

(set of two)
The 14-cube OXO Good Grips Ice Cube Tray’s biggest advantage over other ice trays is its rigid plastic lid. Besides allowing easy stacking and preventing freezer smells, the lid also makes it simpler to portion your ice and refill the tray with water. After many years of using this tray, we haven’t noticed it becoming brittle or exhibiting any other durability issues, unlike some of its competitors.

For more ice cubes at a time
For those who want to make dozens of cubes at once, and have the freezer space, this baby food freezer tray from Mumi&Bubi works very well.

If you’re interested in quantity as well as quality, and you’re willing to spend more money, Mumi&Bubi’s Solids Starter Kit is a smart pick. Even though it’s not designed as an ice cube tray, the $25 set of two 21-cube molds allows for easy removal and comes with lids for spill prevention and sanitary stacking. The high price and large footprint keep it from being our top pick, but it’s a good choice for those who want to make a lot of ice at once and have the room to spare.
