Betty-Ann: I love this ice pack because I don't have to worry about holding it in place, I just wrap it around my arm and go about my business. I have tendonitis in my shoulder so I wrap my upper arm several times a day. So glad I bought this. It remains flexible even after freezing so it is easy to wrap around. I haven't tried using it heated yet.

FlyyygirlFlyyygirl: After bunion correction surgery, I had a hard time finding an ice pack that would be large enough and cold enough for what I needed. This totally fits the bill!!

This ice pack as can be seen from the pic covers from the top of my big toe to the base of my ankle (I’m a women’s size 6) And boy does the ice pack stay cold!!!! Penetrates my bandages, and after icing for 20 min there is VERY LITTLE temperature difference than when first applied out the freezer. Which is perfect if your trying to re-ice in another hour.

DO NOT get the smaller version (9.8”x 4.7” clear pack with visible blue gel). I first bought that ice pack based on someone’s review, but it didn’t quite fit around the whole length or width of my foot. An issue I could’ve dealt with if it had got cold enough and stayed as cold as this larger one. It needed a few hours in the freezer before it was cold enough to reuse. So I decided to give this larger ice pack to try and it’s all you’ll need...No back up ice pack. Now I’m ready for my left foot surgery.

Pogo: This review is for the small-size Koo-Care Hot/Cold Pack with Wrap. It is as described, but I am disappointed with its effect and effectiveness for cold applications. I have used mine for a swollen area on my lower calf and ankle. The gel pack went straight into a freezer at 2 degree F. After several hours I pulled it out, inserted it into the wrap, and applied it. The gel pack was very pliable, so the wrap made tight contact and stayed put once I stretched the strap a lot so it was fairly tight. I had been using crushed ice in a ziploc bag before the wrap came, which began and remained much colder than the gel pack, for much longer, and was much more effective at reducing both pain and swelling. However, I had to remain in a fixed position (in bed) while using ice this way. Two cycles with gel were both pretty ineffective. Though the box suggests wetting the wrap for greater cold penetration with "severe injuries", I didn't bother to try that because I'm sure it wouldn't make much difference. The temperature of the contents reaches the target just fine with a dry wrap. I am now using ice in a standard size freezer zip-lock bag, rolled up and inserted in the wrap. Ice feels very...

Michelle: I purchased my second one for my mom. She hurt her knee and her old ice pack leaked. She did not know I had thrown away her old one and ordered this one. When it came in she was so happy! It wraps around her knee almost entirely and the pouch was all the rage! Lol! She kept going on and on about the pouch...oh it keeps my knee clean...oh it is so soft on my knee...I can wash it!!! On and on! Then she realized the strap and she called me crying! Happy tears mind you. The fact that she did not have to hold the two ends to get her whole knee was too much!!! Who would have thought an awesome ice pack would be such a huge hit as a gift!?!? Then she froze it. It is so much colder than her old one too! (She called again.)

I love the one I got because I can strap it around my elbow, hand, ankle etc and keep going. The strap is really a w/o fearful addition!!! I can honestly say that it stays cold remarkably long too. I can ice my elbow (recent dislocation) then slide it to my wrist to get the other end of that dislocation, then onto my hand (I am a massage therapist and ice my hands often) and it is still very cold when I switch it to my second hand.
