Ice Cooling Mat Gel Ice Pack Hot and Cold Pad for Back - XL 15.75” x 11.75” – Heating Pad for Back Pain, Migraine Relief, Headache, Knee, Shoulder – Ice Packs for Injuries Reusable - Blue Set of 2

They are great for what they are, but they are pricey and heat up pretty fast. On the flip side they cool down fast too if you toss them in the fridge or freezer. I would recommend everyone have them on hand.

I do recommend this very well-made product, and I didn't buy it from my own pain relief at first. Rather, I purchased it for my grandson who is going to be born in a week or two. If/when he gets a fever, mama is going to see if laying him on something cool will comfort him. She is an RN and agrees that it's a great idea.I have purchased another one to use for myself and I love that it is so flexible and large. I fractured my shoulder a while ago and this is easy to lay on top of it and/or wrap around my arm.

Seems to help me deal with pain by cooling off areas.

When I opened the outer plastic delivery package, I noticed that the box was wet and had been bent. I looked at the other box and noticed it had been bent in exactly the same place. It was also wet. I opened the one of the boxes and discovered the product was covered in mold. Inspected the second box and saw mold on it as well. Yuck! I threw it away and washed my hands. Disappointed.

The pads get too hard when frozen

I ordered two, and both arrived with black mold. Nope!

Initially feels cool to touch, but does not really cool anything. Placed pad in refrigerator for an hour and tried again. Pad does not retain the cool and it quickly dissipates.

Could not use had to throw in the trash

The box and ice matts arrived wet and covered in black mould. As an asthma sufferer this is very dangerous. Very upset as I paid good money and would like a refund.
