Cons:

  • "DOES NOT stay flexible with when frozen as advertised, otherwise it would be a really nice gel pack."
  • "Once it's been in the freezer it is not very easy to mould it around knees or ankles as it was solid and not at all pliable."
  • "The gel is a little harder than most of the ice packs I have been using you can’t form it around your injury very easily."
  • "The plastic cover does not seem soft and flexible enough, making it prone to breaking easily."

  • "The company selling these are magic too - kind, honest and have won my custom now and forever more."
  • "The company is fantastic as well. I had a small pack split a little and the company not only immediately replied to my email but sent me a substantially larger back gel pack to compensate, refusing to let me foot the extra cost."

Cons:

  • "DO NOT PURCHASE EXTRA LARGE gel ice pack! This company has no phone number to call and doesn't return emails."
  • "I couldn't see any way to contact the buyer to ask for a replacement."
  • "Am returning as no option to contact seller and just get a replacement for one of the gel packs."
  • "Worse still, my email to the address on the product came back Undeliverable."

Durability and Quality

Pros:

  • "Good quality so far. I have had it maybe 2 months, but used it only a handful of times but loved it."
  • "These Gel packs are well designed and produced to a high quality."
  • "Both the sleeve and the gel packs seem well made and durable."
  • "The outer material of the gel packs has a robust quality to it and feels almost like it is a vinyl-coated woven fabric, and the seams are substantial."
  • "They are very well made and simple to use no chance of breakages or leaks."

Cons:

  • "One of the packs has started licking gel today."
  • "One of the ice packs split open 1 day after using it and little beads spilled everywhere."
  • "However 2 out of the 4 packs didn't long last. The plastic cracked on one and the gel balls inside started coming out of seems."
  • "Also, one of my gel packs has opened up, maybe because I made it too hot."
  • "These burned my knee twice before they started leaking after ONE month."
  • "But it's only been 2 months and one of them cracked open at the seam just like others have reported."
  • "The plastic on these ice packs breaks very easily."

Design and Convenience

Pros:

  • "This ice pack is perfect as you can elevate your leg at the same time without having to balance a bag of peas awkwardly and deal with all the water that melts from ice."
  • "Brilliant idea, love these, great invention! ice packs for kids shaped like a crown and fire hat with a strap to secure on the head and smaller hand held ice packs at a reasonable price."
  • "Being able to wrap it around and then secure it is so handy."
  • "The 8”x12” size has a seam down the center which allows the pack to drape over my thigh and hip area without sliding."
  • "These ice packs are amazing! You can mold them and secure them to almost anywhere!"
  • "Love, love, love the built-in stretchy strap with velcro."
  • "The elastic for your hand to go through is a really good idea to help you hold it onto any bump or burn."

Cons:

  • "The design of the product could be improved as the pouch that the pads goes in is thick, meaning you don't get much warmth coming through."
  • "The gel packs are a good size and very helpful. I thought there were straps for each pack and that is NOT the case."
  • "The strap is extra long which allows you to strap it on multiple parts of your body."
  • "I have to use a belt to hold this in place, would have maybe been better sold with some kind of device to attach it to your body with ease."
  • "The cold packs seem pretty good quality but the design of the wrap is not good."
  • "The Velcro on the pouch that you slot the icepacks into can be quite scratchy and uncomfortable."
  • "The strap's material also irritates my skin a bit."

  • "Have been using it for the past few days and already feel like its improved a great deal."
  • "These are great to use for sports recovery, I bought them for shin splints and they've been great."
  • "They hold the cold for over an hour and is perfect for under the knee."
