How easy is it to remove a single ice cube -- by grabbing it by the edges?

Pretty easy. Since the ic cubes are half-moon shaped, the first time you use it you just poke one end of the cube and it just pops right out. In subsequent uses I found that a gentle twist of the tray to loosen the cubes does the trick... And again you just have to poke one side of thebcube to have it slide out.

It's very easy. The top part makes is so they won't all pop out if you gently press the tray. Then you just peel back the top and fish out one ice cube or however many you want. Personally, I dump them all in a plastic bin after they freeze. It's a really great tray. I have 3.

It works best by pushing downward on one side of the ice cube and sliding the ice cube out of the tray in the opposite direction. They are flat on the top side and crescent shaped underneath. The other option is to do the traditional "twist" of the tray and the ice cubes pop out. It is practically impossible to grab the ice cube while it is still in the tray and pull it straight out.

Never tried that, but they pop out pretty easy, the arc shape would probably let you get one out by pushing down on one side of the cube (it's not actually a cube).

I give the tray a slight twist and it loosens the cubes easily for removal. They ice comes out easily by "grabbing" the sides, but when the sides are not sticking up, you can simply push on one side of the cube and it slides right out of the tray. Very nice.

Not that easy if you just try to grab at it. What I do, is I hold the tray and give it a little twist on either side, in opposite directions (right hand goes outwards/away from me, left hand turns inwards/towards me). You'll hear a little cracking, don't worry, that is not the tray breaking, and that usually loosens up the ice cubes. Then you just poke an ice cube (as if you were trying to push it out from its edges), and it'll slide right out.

It's hard plastic. But the design of the cubes makes it really easy to get the frozen stuff out.

Yeah, each one is a little tray. To remove you just squeeze the two tabs on the tray and it pulls right out.

No need to puncture anything, use sharp end of knife to slowly pry the inner cap round and round, little by little until you can lift it with your fingers

I was anxious about this, but it was easier than I anticipated. I used a Goof-Off type adhesive remover that has a flexible plastic scraper on the cap. Dripped some of the remover onto the edges of the latch, used the scraper to gently pry underneath, and the adhesive popped off easily after a few seconds, with no damage to my painted kitchen cabinets underneath. Do NOT use a butter knife, as some have suggested -- you'll scratch the surface!

They're super tiny. I do not like this ice-cube tray. You have to use force to push each cube out. And since they're so small, this takes a lot longer than I'd expect or want it to be. Pain in the ice. :-)

Hold the bottom with one hand and the top with the other hand then turn the bottom or the top while holding the other part steady. Turn and pull apart at the same time. You have to pull and turn very hard. That removes the base then unscrew the glass container.

I used a bottle opener I still have the one that has a triangle edge. Its an oldie but it did the trick.

1 rinse 2 fill bottom half almost full. 3 press top half into bottom half gently. 4 slowly fill spheres through the small holes if needed. 5 pick it up keeping it level and cover small holes with fingers and spill excess water. 6 place on level surface in freezer. 7 when removing frozen ice balls, rinse first to make removal easier.

Manual defrost. But it is fairly easy, turn it off, and the ice will come off in large pieces

Actually it's not so hard to pop it out, but it's not instantaneous.. takes about 2 seconds. I've used several of these snug-snap in cases, and all you need to do is take out one of your credit cards and use it as an aid to prying the phone out easily and safely. Grab a credit card, use any of its rounded edges -- as though it were a screwdriver tip --- push down the credit card corner into the lower-right-hand-rounded corner of the plastic-holder of the phone, and apply a slight clockwise-twist of the credit card at the same time you are pressing downward. It is far far easier than it SOUNDS with those written instructions! After trying and doing this a few times, it becomes second nature. And when you're done with the phone in the dock, you pop it back into the casing. I have never ever in 2+ years had any problem, no plastic cracking, no loosening of the snugness. It just keeps working as described. Hope that helps someone. :)

Removal is simple. I took it down before the winter snows in a matter of five minutes. By myself, it took longer to fold it up for storage. It is a quick and easy job.

Cut a piece of tape off then pick at one of the corners until you can grab the edge and peel off the plastic.

Carefully!! Use the edge of a credit card but since it is already broken the glass will break into small VERY Sharp pieces!!!! Should be easy to remove...just be Very Careful!

Try peeling the edge back with the tips of your fingernails, kind of like peeling an orange, but don't put your nails next the ice.

Extremely easy...you just unpack, screw the feet into the glass and you're done.

I found the easiest way to do this is to take a knife and on the side where there is a lip and a small opening just gently pry it open. It does fit quite snugly but I wouldn't worry about it breaking.
