I was very surprised at the white coating on the silicone bananas and the chemical smell not particularly pleased when unpacking. I have the ice bin then put equal to 2 times in the dishwasher and even filled to Porbe and placed in the freezer. The chemical smell remain easy and the covering are made and thus the ice bucket is not for me to use. Who knows what is in this box, I do not want to eat in the prepared ice anyway. Too bad, what a waste of money!
