My mom had hip surgery one week ago and and this ice machine had worked wonders for her recovery. It has kept the swelling to a minimum and helps the pain enormously. I tried a different brand before I got this brand and there is seriously no comparison and I'd buy this machine 10 times over again.
Thank you for making such an amazing amazing machine.
One star off simply due to fact customer service never responded to my question prior to purchase. I went ahead and did anyway, taking a chance. The long rectangle pad fit perfectly on my original Breg Polar Care Cube. I am all set for my upcoming surgery. My orthopedic surgeon ordered this for me back in 5/2021, and I kept it. Sure glad I did bc I had my other shoulder surgery 4/2024. TREMENDOUSLY helps for pain & did not need RX pain meds after 2-1/2 days post op for both shoulders! Both of those surgeries I used OG Breg Polar Care Cube 24/7 (few exceptions), with the Breg XL universal pad. I needed a longer pad this time and was able to purchase w/o going through my dr (takes forever). Highly recommend Breg products. Just doubled check compatibility with unit you have as there are several ones and different connecting ports for each.
Hi, Ice packs are terrific last a long time.
Knee sleeve is poor quality. After a few uses the Velcro
does not hold strap down and pulls open. Very inconvenient.

Thanks for your review! We apologize for any inconvenience. Your product is under warranty and we will be happy to get a replacement shipped out to you right away!
Have the elbow/ankle and now knee. The are both great products and function well to reduce acute swelling and pain. Highly recommend the Breg system.
This is a great product, works so well, my wifes arm was on fire after the surgery for rotator cuff. Went through only 5 bags of ice in 2 weeks.
The unit works fine I think. But the shoulder pad is too small for me to feel the cold. Why not make a youth or small adult size?
I received the XL pad with my new Iceman and like it very much, but after using a friends unit I found
that the XL pad is not quite big enough the wrap around my quads like a larger pad. Other than that onc I got the water to flow properly through the pad it will work.
I received my Breg Kodiak polar ice bucket & ice pad for knee but NO Velcro strap to hold it on my knee. I reached out to the company and let them know and they sent me one.
Good quality product, shipped in a timely manner just in time for use of new surgery recovery.
I wish I could have had cold therapy years ago for my other surgeries on my hand and wrist. I had my knee replaced and I am doing so much better than I ever expected in comparison of my other surgeries thanks to the cold and compression. Also my doc lectures his patients about preventing infection and I didn’t want to take any chances so I got the sterile dressings as well. I know I will get use out of this machine in the future as I tried it on my worse knee before the surgery and it helped dramatically! I chose the universal pad as my husband has had shoulder problems in the past so it can be used for that as well. I plan on purchasing a back pad as I have severe arthritis in my spine and I am sure it will help when it gets bad.
Arrived in a timely fashion. Keep in mind the type of connection you use as I did not, I ordered the pad with Cube connector and I have the Kodiak connector. Not a big deal to swap if you have experience in pneumatic tubing, just a wiggle with side cutters to get the tubing to release. All good
Timely delivery and easy setup. Connection leaks if the hose is not on the same plane as the cold pack connection.
Thank you for helping me make changes at the last minute and still getting my order to me asap. You guys are the best!
Bought this to replace the same one my husband had been using just a few years old that had broken. He said it works great and it even feels like the adjustment dial is slimmer profile as it doesn’t get caught on as much as the old one
Item is well constructed and functions as designed. Brought great relief and reduced swelling after Cervical Fusion surgery. Highly recommend. I have Breg cold therapy items for knee and shoulder from previous surgery recoveries. All have been very effective.
Great after my total knee, easy to apply cuff. Must have to help recover faster. The compression really makes a difference.
Bought this for total knee replacement. Worked beautifully. I really liked the fact that they had different sizes for the knee pad. And, I can purchase pads for other body parts. The machine is super quiet. I bought the bags to hold ice, but didn’t use them. Small bottles of Garorade worked great in there. Keep 4 in the unit and 4 in the freezer. Other family members have used and loved this machine.
I needed a power supply for my Breg polar cube and I found one through your business. It was exactly what I needed and I’m very happy and satisfied. The shipping was very fast so I’m totally satisfied!
