Design and Features
Qubies are a single row food storage container. They feature an airtight silicone lid that divides the contents into 8 x 30ml cubes.
They're made of polycarbonate and silicon and come in clear green & blue colours.
Performance and Drawbacks
Qubies are pretty easy to use. Just fill the tray to the maximum line on the side, ease the lid down and pop your milk or baby food in the freezer.
The lid is a snug, air-tight fit so all your baby's dinners stay nice and fresh without freezer burns and smells. The food dividers are actually built into the lid so when you prize it off the contents fall out into easy to use cubes. Any you don't use immediately can be popped into a freezer bag for later.
When using for breast milk the neat little 30ml cubes mean you can measure out and defrost exactly the amount you need per feed. Any mum who's pumped knows how precious every drop is!
Qubies are clear so it's easy to identify the contents without having to open the lid. The flat strip on the bottom of the tray makes the trays easy to stack up to maximise precious freezer space.
Easy to clean, Qubies are dishwasher and steriliser safe.
Qubies have a life beyond baby, especially if you have a cook in the house. Perfect for storing sauces, purees, juices or other ingredients it's good Qubies have other uses because they are great quality and will last for years.
The only drawback of Qubies is that once you take the lid off the tray you can forget getting it back on. It's like trying to put back an impossible puzzle. Best to empty the food cubes into a zip lock bag for long-term storage, so you can use your Qubies for the next gourmet baby meal.
What our testers said
Our Best Buys tester is the kind of mum who doesn't want anything in her house that clutters. Any baby product has to really add value or it's out the door.
The good news is our tester mum loved her Qubies so much so she wants more. She found them much easier to fill because of the single tray and convenient that the food came out easily, she didn't need to pry it out by twisting or with a fork.
She also found them easy to clean.
