ACECompression Knee Brace with Side Stabilizer, Recommended for hyperextension and meniscus injuries, Money Back Guarantee

Perfect size, not too small to be useful or too large for use by a kid with a bonked bean. Other cold packs get too hard and unyielding, lack covers or leak, and so far none of those describe this product. The fabric cover is very nice, a little too thick but okay, and since it is make to fit there is no fussing with a dish towel or pins or any of that, and it stays on without trouble. The velcro of the cover will grab the fabric in places other than the edge so I was able to make it stick around my foot when I dislocated my little toe on the hearth. Washable is a plus. We keep ours in the freezer, cover on. all the time to be ready (at least three clutzes in the family) and it has stayed flexible. It is good to know we could thaw it and warm it for a warm pack if we had that kind of need. Great for knees, foreheads, heads, hands, arms, cheeks . . . you get the idea. Worth every penny.

It used to be more flexible and the old one was able to put around my ankleThe new purchase is stiffer less flexible

I've bought a couple of these now after getting tendinitis on both my hands; they fold nicely around the wrist even when cold. They've lasted through many, many uses (I used one about 4 times a day for at least 3 months) although they do look a little beat up after a while. It's good as a hot compress after microwaving or as a cold one after you put it in the freezer. I've never had it leak and the sleeve is pretty soft, not scratchy at all. The only annoyance was that the velcro tab of the sleeve would get caught on various parts of the sleeve, making it a little difficult to remove.

It gets cold and stays icy but the cover is a little too thick. I wrap it in a paper towel so the cold is deeper.

This works well! But I don't use the microwave to heat it up because I've read some reviews that it leaked. What I do is I boil water, turn the heat off and pour the water in a bowl with the pack in it. I let it warm up for 5-6 min. I then distribute the heat and put it in the sleeve. No leaks so far!

I use this mostly for the cold and leave it on a shelf in my freezer. When I have a need, I just pop it out, slide the gel pack into the sleeve and wrap it where needed. The gel never gets hard so it malleable and bends as needed. The outer sleeve (as shown on the picture) has velcro and holds it in place pretty good. Also enough of a barrier where you don't get 'freezer burn' from direct contact. recommended

I bought this as a gift for a friend after she saw me using mine and said she would like to have one. It's a wonderful product, very handy in time of need and so simple to use. I especially like the convenience of the cover so I don't have to be wrapping up the gel pack with a towel. I've had mine for a few years and consider it indispensable.

It works good for cold treatment. Trying to use it for hot treatment is almost impossible. Warming it in the microwave only keeps it warm for a few minutes and if you try to heat it up longer, the edges start to burn.
