The Icebreaker Pop Ice Cube Maker is on sale at Amazon

May 24, 2023

Aside from sunscreen, there's only one thing you can never have too much of once summer rolls around: ice! On a sweltering day, enjoying a chilled drink is the ultimate antidote, but unless you have an automatic ice maker, you're stuck using those precarious (and often flimsy) trays. Until now! With the Icebreaker Pop Ice Cube Maker, you can kiss spills and weird fridge odors goodbye, thanks to its ingenious water-tight design. Even better? Right now you can snag it on sale for as low as $20 (down from $33) — that's almost 40% off!

No more freezing your fingers off, since you never have to touch the ice!

How does this nifty contraption work? Think of it as a rectangular water bottle, only it contains 18 compartments for forming ice cubes. To use, all you do is fill it with water up to the line, freeze, then press it down, pull the straps to release the ice cubes (accordion-style!), shake and serve. So much easier than filling a tray, spilling water everywhere and then having to bang it against the counter and sending the ice flying all over your kitchen.

Another benefit? With the Icebreaker, making ice is much more sanitary, as you never have to touch the cubes during the process. Its sealed design also means those funky odors from the foods you forgot about in the back of your freezer stay outside where they belong.

One incredibly convenient feature is that you can store it in your freezer in any direction (no more clearing out a flat path!). The water takes eight hours to freeze, so you can make up to 54 cubes per day. Plus, your ice won't melt as quickly while it's in the container, making this a great on-the-go ice maker for bringing on road trips and picnics. Reviewers do say that the cubes are a bit smaller than the ones made using a standard tray, but that just means you'll have an easier time fitting them into water bottles.

The pretty blue hue is the one that's currently on sale, but you can also choose from four other colors, or opt for multi-packs of two or three, which cost less per piece! Considering how much headache this will save you, stocking up is a great idea...

Over 3,600 Amazon customers have given the Icebreaker Pop Ice Cube Maker their five-star seal of approval, and it's not hard to see why they think it breaks the mold.

"Icebreaker Pop has changed everything!" reported a rave reviewer. "No more leaky ice trays spilling in the freezer (or on the way to the freezer) and no ice picking up weird smells and tastes from the freezer ... Icebreaker Pop is also cool-looking and easy to clean; it's made up of three easy-to-separate pieces that are a snap to wash thoroughly."

"This thing is amazing," shared a satisfied shopper. "I had bought some regular silicone ice cube trays, but my fingers were freezing off just trying to get the cubes out. This thing is easy to refill, easy to pull apart and I don't even have to touch the ice to get it out. I love the option of it being able to lay any way it fits in my freezer."

"This is a game-changer," claimed a contented convert. "You can take your ice on the go in a cooler, it's the most sanitary way to handle ice and it's so easy to store in your freezer because you can place it in however you’d like! I keep mine on the door of my freezer, so I have it standing upright and I use it daily."

Beat the heat — without the headache.
