Ice cube tray. I guess if you have a basic refrigerator with no ice maker you need an ice cube tray.

I'm old. I remember these old aluminum trays with the handle on top.Old-Time Aluminum Ice Cube Tray

Remember ‘em? Shoot, I’ve got four of ‘em. They never broke so I never saw a need to replace them.

Okay, that and it’s fun to watch my kids’ friends try to figure out how to use them. ;)

You can still buy stainless steel ice cube trays.

77 here. That’s the kind we had. Before the more modern and spacious fridges with larger freezers came out, we had an old fridge that had a small freezer compartment at the top that held two ice trays and very little else.

Mid-50s here, and that’s the kind we had. Ah, the good ol’ days. Any other kids use those trays to make mini-popsicles with cranberry juice etc and toothpicks as the sticks?

I remember those aluminum trays when I was a kid. They were awkward and hard to pull that lever up.
