I had the same issue. I confirm that using no animation when reloading the row works fine.

But it turns out the issue is caused by returning a cached UITableViewCell in cellForRowAtIndexPath when actually a fresh one is needed.

The doc for reloadRowsAtIndexPaths:withRowAnimation: says: "Reloading a row causes the table view to ask its data source for a new cell for that row."

Your cellForRowAtIndexPath method is returning locally cached cells. Returning a brand new cell fixed the issue in my case and no workarounds were needed...
