Product Information
Full details
The Joseph Joseph QuickSnap Plus is an innovative ice cube tray designed for home users who want to dispense ice cubes individually and cleanly. Its key benefit is the unique switch mechanism that releases one cube at a time, preventing the need to touch multiple cubes. A potential caveat is that the tray mechanism requires a specific twisting and pushing action to release cubes efficiently. This ice cube tray features a 14-cube capacity, a stackable lid to prevent spills and odor absorption, and is made from durable materials.

FAQs
How do I release a single ice cube?
First, twist the tray to loosen the ice cubes. Then, turn the tray over and push each switch individually in the direction of the arrow to release one cube at a time.
Can I stack multiple QuickSnap Plus trays?
Yes, the flexible lid is designed to allow multiple trays to be stacked securely on top of each other in the freezer.
What materials is the ice cube tray made from?
The tray is made from Polypropylene, the levers are TPR, and the lid is made from PE.
How many ice cubes can this tray make?
The Joseph Joseph QuickSnap Plus has a capacity of 14 ice cubes.
Is the ice cube tray difficult to clean?
No, the ice cube tray is dishwasher safe for convenient cleaning.
Can I use this tray for things other than water?
While designed for water, you could theoretically freeze other liquids. However, cleaning might be more challenging, and the release mechanism is optimized for ice.
What is the benefit of releasing cubes individually?
It allows you to take only the ice cubes you need, keeping the rest frozen and protected from freezer odors, and ensures hygienic dispensing without touching multiple cubes.
Troubleshooting
Ice cubes are difficult to release.
Ensure the tray has been twisted sufficiently to loosen the cubes. Check that the switches are pushed firmly in the direction of the arrow. If cubes are very small, they may not have fully formed.
Water is spilling from the tray.
Make sure the lid is fully sealed and secure before placing it in the freezer. Ensure the tray is placed flat on the freezer shelf and not tilted.
Ice cubes have an odor.
Confirm the lid is properly sealed to prevent freezer odors from contaminating the ice. Clean the tray thoroughly according to care instructions.
Tray is difficult to stack.
Ensure the lid is correctly aligned and fully seated on both trays before stacking. Check for any ice or debris on the lid edges that might be preventing a flush fit.
