I got this for post operation rotator cuff surgery. It works great. The only downside is my ice maker not being able to produce enough ice to use multiple days in a row. Luckily I had freeze gel packs to alternate with the stated.
The unit itself is worth every penny! You could never keep up the cold with ice or gel packs. Seems to last 4-5 hours with 2 ice packs and 4 cups of ice.
However, the Velcro on the pads only lasts a week or so then loses its stick.
I did have one replaced by warranty but same thing happened. There should be a dedicated Velcro patch for the hooks to bite instead of depending on the fabric alone.
I just had a total hip replacement and this ice compression machine has been amazing during my recovery. So easy to use and I love that the ice lasts 6-8 hours so you aren’t having to constantly change it. This little machine has been a huge part in my recovery!
Had a total knee replacement and this machine is a great at home device for recovery.
This ice machine is a game changer and will challenge the much more expensive compression ice machines. A great machine at a fantastic price. I am sure it is hastening my recovery from TKR. Thank you Breg.
