Only used a couple times, but works exactly as it says. Great value for the money, and definitely is a life saver when you forget to take something out earlier in the day.greg schneider jr · November 24, 2020 · Verified
It's smaller than I expected but that makes it easier to store. It works well and is easy to use and clean so that is great.Katty · June 10, 2020

Wash the tray by hand or in the dishwasher and dry it.
Place it on a flat surface at room temperature, away from the hob and direct sunlight.
Put thin, flat frozen items directly on the plate, with as much surface touching as possible. Remove bulky packaging first.
Turn thicker pieces over part-way through, and cook the food promptly once it has thawed.
For most buyers, yes: we score it 4.0 out of 5. The WINNER H tray does what a thaw plate should: it speeds up defrosting of thin cuts without power, catches the drips in its channels and cleans up easily.
Rated 4.0 out of 5 across 102 user ratings, with 53% giving it five stars and 10% one star.
Smaller than some expect, so it fits only a portion or two. Thick cuts and large items still take a long time.
Wash the tray after every use.
Freeze mince and chicken pieces flat in bags rather than in blocks; flat packs thaw far faster on a plate.
The WINNER H tray does what a thaw plate should: it speeds up defrosting of thin cuts without power, catches the drips in its channels and cleans up easily. Its small size and dependence on room warmth mean it is best for a portion or two of chops, fillets or flattened mince.
For quick thawing of steaks, fillets and flat packs of mince, this is an inexpensive, no-fuss tool. It will not thaw a roast in a hurry, and larger amounts are still best left in the fridge overnight.
