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.
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.
Received my order quickly and in perfect condition. Very satisfied with the product and its performance.
Love this product the u it works great! When I placed my order I adder some more attachments to it and I put the wrong ones on the order and the customer service caught the mistake fixed it a refunded the difference all before it shipped and notified me of the error. Great service!
The Breg cooler does exactly as I expected and needed, and for such a quiet little device it gives a great relief for my post surgical shoulder rebuild.Surprisingly quiet, I wasn’t sure it was even on when I first plugged it in… I guess I expected a bunch of pumping and swishing sounds but no, it quietly and efficiently moved cold water through the pad to the affected application point. Bingo!
The pad itself is a bit stiff and a bit less flexible than I would like it to be. I bought the extra Velcro straps and these allow me to place it optimally on my shoulder by myself with no assistance. The cold water has remained so for 36 hours so I didn’t have to change it out like I expected and that was a plus as well. It’s a friendly and efficient device that will help during and after the therapy I start in a week or so. Good product but again, the shoulder pad is a bit stiff and not as pliable as I hoped!
