This is a little premature. I haven't had the surgery yet but it looks like quality stuff. The gentleman that helped me buy it over the phone was super. My bank didn't want to process the order. We worked at it for over a half an hour when he thought to check my email and there it was a approve/disapprove question. They even tried to call but caller ID only showed an 800 # that I thought was spam. The point is he was very helpful and patient. I'm not looking forward to the surgery but I am looking forward to using my unit.
Ordered ice machine and ice packs. Neither have arrived yet.
Perfect for after PT!

The polar cube system works so well. Two of my family members have had several surgeries and the cube is so efficient for icing. We have found the best way to use it is to freeze eight 16oz water bottles and rotate four at a time using them in the cube with cold water. They only have to be switched out once a day. The pads are very versatile and different sizes can be purchased depending on the area that needs icing. The only small complaint is that the pads do gather condensation and need to be dried off each time or it will get the bandage wet. Otherwise it’s a great system and I highly recommend it. Also, the customer service I received from Baxter was top notch! I made an error on my order and needed to have it delivered faster than requested. He answered my email request within 10 minutes, called me immediately to resolve the issue, and I received the system in time for the surgery. Very satisfied all around.
