Try using hot water when you fill them up.
If that doesnt work id say give them a good washing and let them dry completely before filling them.
They might need to be dry first.
See ya

Your problem may be from mineral deposits building up in the trays. You may not see anything there, but you may be able to feel a slightly rough surface in the bottom. If you soak some vinegar in the trays for a few hours and then wipe the "cups" out with a damp cloth you can remove the deposits. Once the deposits are removed the trays will work like new.

Use the plastic ice trays, and not the metal kind...
Thus, you give it a quick "twist", and the cubes will "fall out" into what ever container you chose to put them in... (I have a large container in my freezer that I do this to).
Or, run your trays under hot water for a second, the bottom, and it should help you in unsticking the metal kind...
I wish you well..

Yup, stop using detergents when washing them, as it can erode the slippery coating. Odds are they're already ruined, so pony up a buck for the dollar store, and use plain water and a paper towel to clean them from now on. Avoid the dishwasher altogether. I've had the same trays for 2 years, and they haven't stuck yet.

Didn't you ever notice that the top tray doesn't stick... or at least not nearly like the bottom one. Make sure there's some space between the trays. Use one of those racks- plastic coated wire rack you can buy at any store. This creates space around them and they don't stick nearly as bad.

They always stick I've found. Some ice cubes will loosen when twisting it slightly, but I run hot water on the back.
You can buy new ice trays, they twist easily because there're more flexible. They don't cost much

firstly it sounds like maybe your ice box needs defrosting,due to a build up of ice, allso check your door seal,then only fill your ice trays two thirds full as water expands as it freezes,so if you overfill water can run over and freeze the tray to the cabnet,if all else fail and you fridge is in poor repair put a rack in so the ice tray is not toching the surface of your ice box,but if its this poor best get a knew fridge or have yours repaired as its costing you much more in power bills to run.

Don't fill the trays up ,all the way to the top. , with water. This helps when emptying them. Cool Pem

I minced my garlic and store them in a glass container with lid in Canola oil in the fridge. It will last a long time and also taste real good for marinade and cooking.
