Does anyone here still make ice cubes with a tray?

Generally yes. The water in the tap is paid for and the freezer is on anyway.

Occasionally we will buy a bag of ice cubes if we know we are going to need a lot of ice and the couple of trays we have won't keep up with the demand.
 
I don't ever freeze water but if I per chance do then yes I will pull out a cube tray from the cabinent and make ice cubes since I don't have a fancypants fridge
 
I do. I've got six Rubbermaid trays that never crack or break and they eject the cubes easily. I don't know what their polymer recipe is but they're noticeably better than other trays I've used.
 
Not unless the icemaker in the freezer misbehaves. That's happened a couple of times and it's a PITA to replace in a bottom drawer freezer.
 
I still do.
The water here is so hard you can chip a tooth on it. I won't use the freezers ice maker.
I have 2 trays filled with filtered water from my cooler in the freezer.
 
I have a couple of plastic trays I freeze stock in. I also have some round and oversized ones for fancy ice for cocktails.
 
We did when our automatic ice maker broke. This crackerjack appliance repairman in town had us bring in the ice making components from our fridge. He then mixed and matched parts from a similar model. He told us to take it home and try it without paying. He said if it doesn't work, bring back the parts. If it does, bring him the money. I think it was $150. It could have been less.
Some appliance repairmen will really try and take you to the cleaners. Especially if they make a house call.
 
I stopped when we moved into this house last year. If the freezer side of the thing was bigger I’d probably still use trays because the cubes don’t get stuck together.
 
Me. I do. Ice makers never leak and Santa Clause and Shakespeare are real.

Me. I do. I'm the only one. Upstairs freezer in counter depth so, there's no room in it for ice cubes. Ice cubes are made downstairs in the tiny freezer part of the fridge that has sodas and beer. I put the thing the cubes go in on the washing machine, twist the 6 trays into to it, bring the trays to the bathroom, close the lid of the toilet, sit the empty trays on it and when each one ifs filled, stack them on the tank. I get comments like, that's so gross, etc. but, no one ever brings them up to the fucking kitchen and fills them their selves. And yet, no matter how gross they think it is, everybody uses the ice cubes.
