These are so awesome! the handle is nice and sturdy, the frozen stuff doesn't pull off or fall off the stick at all and the handle has a nice rubbery texture that's comfortable to hold onto. These clean up easy with a quick rinse in warm water or with warm soap and water if needed. They may be top-rack dishwasher safe, don't remember if it says so or not but don't have a dishwasher myself and always refill and refreeze as soon as I consume one so doesn't matter to me. If you are a diyer or have allergies and like to concoct your own flavors these will be a perfect fit. Makes a nice size ice pop too!
