This cold therapy is amazing after having hip replacement surgery. I can get about 5-6 hours out of it before having to change the ice. Being able select how long it runs and how long it is off is a game changer for me.
Works great. 5 stars. Only upgrade would be not having to run through bags of ice but it does stay cold for a ling time.
The machine is very simple to set up and operate. It does a good job of temporary pain relief.
I discovered at the last minute, just before surgery, that my insurance wouldn't cover the cost of this machine, so I had to scramble to find a quick alternative. This came the day of my shoulder surgery and was waiting for me at the front door when we came home from the hospital. This was a lifesaver and helped to keep me pain free. Even better, we hooked this up to one of our smart plugs (apple home) and had it kick on and off every 20 minutes. Perfect.
For the price, the freezer bags are an embarrassment. They literally lasted 1 freeze. Otherwise i really like this machine.
I am a rugby player who dislocated my shoulder anteriorly 11 months ago. I have been experiencing shoulder instability and partial dislocations in my games until I tried this brace. It was well worth the price! My shoulder feels more stable than ever - no more instability or partial dislocations when I am making tackles or going into contact. For size reference I am 5 foot 9 inches and weigh around 150 pounds. I am wearing a size small and the brace fits well, honestly could have sized down if needed.
Spoke with a CS rep to place my order and inquire regarding the benefits of the product. After having foot surgery, the pain was agonizing. With the instructions from the CS I was able to alleviate a little discomfort and get much needed rest.
I had a total knee replacement on 9/29/25. I'm 44. When I woke up the first thing I felt wasnt pain but how cool my leg was. I leaned over the bed and took a picture and started looking for whatever this was. I ended up purchasing it at 2 am. I'm not quite sure why my Orthopedics office did not suggest this because it is an absolute necessity. I cannot think of any other way to provide the amount of "ice" that is truely required to alliviate the amount of swelling and discomfort following this type of procedure. This set up is an absolute game changer and I recommend it ×10000.
The item arrived quickly and has prove to be effective in providing assistance to my wife's recover from her surgery.

I had full hip replacement and I'm using the Breg machine. The hip wrap has been a lifesaver! It's easy to use and gives consistent pain relief.
It works really good and I like it but I just wish there was a way to drain the water from it so it doesn’t get all moldy inside. They don’t tell you how to clean it or drain the water. I had to call the 800 number, but I still can’t get all the water out of it.
Happy with the purchase for the price . Does a good of keeping knee cool.The cooling time is about 5 hours. If I ever had another knee to do I think you should have some kind of compression in the system
Friend recommended this device it is a big recovery help over the traditional bag of frozen peas.
Solved working with the folks at supply pt. This breg back pad makes it simple to ice my back reducing inflammation and pain. Thank uou
I purchased Breg Polar Cube on the recommendation by my Ortho surgeon. It arrived quickly and I was surprised because you buy it through company not Amazon. My knee surgery is October 17th so I wanted to try this out beforehand. I find the Velcro straps that secure ice pad around your knee are cheaply made. They don’t work to keep pad in place. Otherwise I found it easy to use.
I absolutely love this thing. I've had the cryo-cuff gravity-fed ice pack now for about 12 years and it was finally time to upgrade. The only downside to this product is that it doesn't do compression alongside the icing. However, getting 4-8 hours of constant freezkng cold water is definitely worth it. I highly recommend this product to anyone with minor to major knee pain. Its a game changer. 🤙🤙🤙
Works great ice lasts all night has cut my healing time by half you can also use with no power just by lifting cooler above the pad it will fill with cold water
Love mine got another knee replacement coming in 90 days !!
Purchased this machine for relieve after my knee replacement surgery. It works amazing! It receives the pain after I work my knee out, and also reduces swelling.
The Velcro straps on my Breg Ice Machine wore out. I replaced the Velcro and I still had to use a dish towel to hold it on. I was trying to order a new pad($98) and found these… I love them!
