Gregory: First, I will say that this is a very well constructed, heavy duty gel pack that feels as though it will last a long time. I have only had it about a week, so it is too early for me to comment on longevity.
PROS:
-Large enough to provide front-to-back hip wrap
-Freezes/refreezes fairly quickly, when placed into freezer flat and unfolded
-Holds it cold well.....I would guess that the frozen pack will provide cold wrap therapy roughly as long as an ice pack.
-Constructed using two linear seams, allowing the pack to be unfolded and used in a flat configuration, providing maximum coverage or to be folded to shape the pack to the part of your body being treated
CONS-
It is possible that I am to blame for this first one.....perhaps there was fine print that I missed.....just being honest.
But, this company (The Coldest Water) sells a "standard" (i.e. most commonly ordered) sized gel pack with photos that show the gel pack being used with the inlcuded elastic strap/belt to hold it in place.

I finally realized this calls for more than just the hot/cold packs I was buying at my local drugstore.
After trying several types and brands, I finally tried Coldest last week. I just bought my second pack today. I'm convinced.
These packs may need a full 2 hours to freeze starting from room temperature. But they definitely freeze fast and their large size seems to help them stay colder longer. A lot colder, a lot longer. Perhaps 50% longer than the standard packs I've been using.
That extra time means less time spent getting up, changing packs, re-freezing etc. Since the packs are usually still pretty cold when I put them back in the freezer, they don't need as much time to get ice cold again. An hour perhaps. This all adds up to longer lasting cold per pack in less time. With a couple more Coldest...
