VEVOR Ice Ball Press, 2.1" Ice Ball Maker, Aviation Aluminum Ice Ball Press Kit for 53mm Ice Sphere, Ice Press with Tong and Drip Tray, for Whiskey, Cocktail, Bourbon, Scot on Party & Holiday

This kit comes with a very heavy metal ice press, drip tray, ice cube tray, tongs, a bar mat, a lowball glass, and a wooden box to store the kit. It is well worth the value, especially for the size of the metal press that you are getting. It presses ice very nicely by conducing heat away from the ice cube, into the metal, melting it into a sphere. This process chills the metal press and only really will press 1 cube over a few minutes, so this is best for hobby/home use, rather than a commercial setting. You can run the press under warm water to press more cubes at a time. I like the box and the while kit in general. My only critiques would be that (1) I wish that the ice cube trays would have more structural support and a better lid; and, (2) the tongs are not very strong or useful and would be better if they had tines. These critiques do not detract from my opinion of the value, quality of the product, and ease of use.

So good I ordered a second one!

This ice ball press works fine. When you place it in the tray and press a ball, the seal on the bottom is too tight for the bottom port to drain properly. I've been propping it up with a coin, for that it loses a star.This is pretty expensive for what it is, but it does work as expected and it's cheaper than the competition.I use 2.5" spheres made separately in a directional freezing mold to get perfect clarity, so this press just makes them a perfect sphere. It seems to have a tendency to fracture the ice sometimes though, your results may vary.If you can afford this and it's what you want, this is probably the one to buy. They're probably all the same quality construction, so this price wins.

This is a great buy if you are looking for an ice press .,I bought the diamond mold and it is fantastic. Well worth the $107 by far. Very high quality materials are used. Very happy with it and I didn’t have to spend $400-900 for an ice press.

After visiting a distillery and seeing one of these in action, I knew my father-in-law would love it for his old fashions that he makes when we all get together. He was like a kid with a new toy and had to show all his children and grandkids how cool this is. He even took it in their camper on their travels.Getting the ice blocks out of the cubes does take a little finagling, but once you set the block in the ice ball maker and put the top on, the magic happens! The more ice balls you try to make in a row, the slower the process is. After 3 ice balls, we decided that we needed to give it a rest and let it warm back up to at least room temperature before making another one.We like that it comes in its own case to protect everything and keep everything together. My husband did have me buy more ice cube molds so that his father would have enough cubes when everyone visits to make enough ice balls. The ice cub molds are deep so it does take at least overnight for the water to freeze to make the ice balls.

It’s perfect for the price. It was a Father’s Day gift and my husband loved it.!

The ease of use and consistency in the shape. The craftsmanship is excellent and worth the price. It is so good we display it on our bar counter

Thought was a huge waste of money and returned
