Durability
Pros:
"Very sturdily made so it should last a very long time."
"They are well made and while flexible, their fabric is sturdy."
"Nice and sturdy. They can be washed and used over and over."
Cons:
"A product that breaks this easily or leaks fluid should be removed from amazon."
"I managed to put pinhole in two within just a few uses. These are not keepers."
"However, it's now started leaking after a few months of light use."
Temperature Retention
Pros:
"The best part is they stay cold for a solid 30 min and more."
"The cold retains for a long time. I remove after 45 min & it's still as cold."
"It stays cold for a good amount of time and folds up nicely to fit in the freezer."
"Stays cold for 2+ hours."
"Stays cold for a long time and is huge, covers mostly my whole back."
Cons:
"I've had this for a long time now. It has never stayed cool for longer than about 5 minutes."
"It is thin, so the 'cooling agent' inside warms quickly."
Size and Fit
Pros:
"Very large…bigger than I expected. Used following a hysterectomy and they covered my whole stomach!!"
"It’s just the right size."
"The pack is large and covers my entire lumbar region to soothe the radiating inflammation."
"Large enough to ice from mid back to mid ass."
Cons:
"It's doesn't wrap well because it freezes so hard & its heavy."
"The fabric is somewhat low-friction, which makes it difficult to just put on and leave--it wants very badly to slip off and be on the floor."
"The size I ordered (5 x 10) isn't long enough to wrap around my ankle."
Convenience
Pros:
"I love that it refreezes quickly and that it's so versatile in addressing nearly any body part."
"You can put them either in the freezer or the microwave."
"They fold up easily to fit on the freezer door, and I just keep them there at all times so they are always ready."
Cons:
"It’s a bit bulky and uncomfortable to use. Takes up a lot of room in the freezer."
"You definitely need room in the freezer for this as it’s a lot larger than most ice packs."
"Freezes so hard that you have to take it out of the freezer to let it soften up before you can use it."
Quality and Material
Pros:
"The quality is amazing."
"These ice packs are great, mostly because of the soft, flexible fabric covering, which is comfortable on my skin."
"This ice pack is comfortable on the skin and large enough to cover a hip/thigh."
Cons:
"The material is plastic, not a 'fabric' covering, so it sweats, and can make your body or clothes wet."
"The outer covering needs to be slightly thicker and softer."
"This is probably so cheap because the vinyl is thin and the product is covered in condensation within minutes of removing from the freezer."
Value
Pros:
"Great value for the price and usage."
"These are great for the price and would buy again."
"They are perfectly sized and it is a great purchase."
Cons:
"Do not recommend, it’s cheap junk and will hurt you."
