The mould is a thin, soft silicone so isa bit too floppy when trying to fill with water. I got most spheres filled and realised that the water was pouring out of the other side at the same time. One filled you have to carefully transfer into the freezer but once frozen, the spheres are easy to remove and are fairly satisfying spheres. There are far more pricey spherical I’ve mould out there but while we’re still in a lockdown, this device is great for the price.

Makes ice balls – though I've only managed to make a couple ‘perfect’ ones. You've gotta make sure the top and bottom of the tray are joined together really snugly, otherwise the ball moulds won't fill up properly and the top of the tray just floats off. Would be handy if the top and bottom clicked into place or something instead of just sitting on top of each other. Price is a bit steep for what it is.
It's made from thin flexible silicone material which makes it easy to discard the ice balls. However there are some flaws when filling the tray. It does come with with a small funnel but I find it easier to fill without through the top hole. Once it's filled with water, the tray starts to separate itself from the middle. I found you have to fill the bottom half, put the top tray in, fill that with water and once it starts separating then push them together really tight.
When you fill with water, the weight of the water pushes the two halves apart, doesn't work well at all.
Water leaks out the side seams when you fill it.
The rubber ice trays don't seal properly so you end up with balls in a plate of ice. Very disappointed in this product
