Flexible Rectangular Silicone Homemade Crafts set Reviews Summary

Quality and Design

Pros:

• "The silicone is acceptable, decent, a decent thickness, moldable, and functional."
• "It is exactly what it says - a wooden soap mold with purple silicone liner."
• "The silicone insert is nice and thick."
• "This design is wonderful. The silicone liner easily pulls away from the completed soap."
• "Dovetail joints are strong."
• "The wooden box was fine but the purple silicone liner was warped on the sides and bottom."
• "The wooden part of the form holds the silicone mold perfectly square for square-shaped soap."

Cons:

• "Definitely not super sturdy or super well made, but gets the job done."
• "Sides of mold tend to bend inward even when filled to top."
• "The silicone is not rectangular, It has warped areas making it so the loafs edges will not be straight."
• "The mold is not shaped right and even once filled with soap batter it doesn't straighten out."
• "Silicone mold arrived with a tear in it."
• "Molds arrived warped and defective, inner cavities also had visible bumps."
• "The silicone mold isn't straight so I have to keep adjusting the sides so my lines are straight."

Usability

Pros:

• "The mold is easy to fill, remove, clean, and manipulate."
• "Soap can be removed from the mold very easily."
• "Works great for a soapmaking beginner."
• "A great mold for the soapmaker who makes small batches."
• "It's perfect for my soap and very well made."
• "The silicone lining makes easy release and easy clean up."
• "The silicone removes very easily from the wood base."

Cons:

• "You cannot make large bars of soap in these molds."
• "These are very small width wise, n don’t make really good size soap loaves."
• "Horrible. Wrong web description and I sent it back, and only got partial refund."
• "Really bummed bc I missed the return window by the time I started making soap and figured it out."
• "Works ok. a little hard to get soap completely out of the mold, but it works."
• "It's fairly tricky to get soap out of the mold a few days after making it."
• "The silicone liner is about 1/8” too big for the wood mold. It doesn’t slide out easily to remove soap."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "These are great molds. They are affordable so if they do get damaged it isn’t a big deal to replace them."
• "For being imported the box is pretty sturdy."
• "Very sturdy. I like the quality, it is nice and surprisingly inexpensive."
• "Priced Right."
• "Very, very good price for what you get."
• "Very nice quality at a very good price. I bought two of these for soapmaking."
• "For a 42oz silicone lined wood loaf mold that cost $10 - $15 it's a solid 5 star mold."

Cons:

• "I like the price of these... but when I use them the sides weep and the entire soap is deformed."
• "The quality is horrible and can't be used to make soap without the warped parts making impressions in the side of the soap."
• "They are very thin and cheaply made. I’m super disappointed."
• "This is not a 42 oz mold, it holds about 2 lb."
• "They are still decent molds for a fair price so I'm generously giving them 3 stars."
• "For the price I should have figured it would have defects but I was hoping not."
• "Not happy with this mold! The silicon was not formed correctly! The sides were caved in."
