Nice & Cold Jul 26, 2010 This cold pack is very good if you need the cold to last a long time. I put two of them in a deep freezer and they got so cold I could hardly stand it. The good thing is that they kept my injured back nice and cold for over 1/2 hour. Too often thinner or smaller packs warm up quickly. I highly recommend it.
- Eye - Shaped to Cover Both Eyes Total Waste of Money Jul 15, 2010 Cold Pack - ColPaC Brand - Blue Vinyl - Eye - Shaped to Cover Both Eyes
The only positive thing I can say is that it did get cold after sitting overnight in the freezer. But so would a pair of spoons, and you'd be much better off. The filling of this pack is hard & chunky -- think peanut brittle. It certainly doesn't conform in any way to your eyes =the pieces are too big.
Don't waste your money! You'd be much better off with frozen spoons, a bag of frozen corn or peas, or another eye mask from the drugstore.
Outstanding--for a cold pack! Jul 11, 2010 Good size for large body areas needing treatment. Comfortable soft plastic, even directly on skin. Better than expected! Requires time and space in your freezer, but worth the wait.
great to have ready in the freezer May 18, 2010 I have three of these packs and feel better knowing they are in the freezer, ready to use when needed. They hold cold very well and are flexible enough to mold around your body. They do have a bit of frost on them when you first take them out, but that is to be expected. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Excellent, professional grade cold pack that will last for YEARS! May 09, 2010 I have the 23-inch "cervical" shape col-pac. I bought this one direct from the manufactuer's website (also a good deal, but ++ shipping) when I was having shoulder problems, and it has seen a LOT of use for shoulders, lower back, knees, ankles, neck, etc. It is a VERY versatile size! So far, no signs of wear after four years. Here on Amazon to buy one for my father-in-law.
A few pointers shared by my first PT:
1) Store in a zip-lock plastic bag in the freezer to prevent "drying out" of the vinyl cover.
2) Always return to the freezer after the first time you use it- i.e., no long term storage at room temp. This would seem a "no brainer" - you want it to be ready, right? But it also prolongs the life of the product.
3) Put it inside a pillowcase before applying - don't put directly on your skin, but don't put too thick a layer between you and the pack. You can even sew a velcro strap to a pillow case to make an inexpensive "wrap."
4) If you can afford it, buy one for the office freezer (if you have one) and one for home - you'll be more likely to use it throughout the day!
