I had one years ago and I loved it then. I tried to find one through physical therapy but couldn't. I was so glad that I could just order one myself. Thanks!

Unavailable in stores, August 19, 2010
By Cinderella(Othello, WA)
We became familiar with Colpac ice packs from a physical therapist after knee surgery. We have since purchased 3 of them over 15 years. The black polyurethane ice pack was recommended because the seams split on the previous two due to our type of use: laying on our backs which is not recommended. Because of our back problems, laying on our stomachs is difficult. We will see if the seams on this model last longer.

Sent to my brother and sister-in-law, July 23, 2010
By meotnvol(Chattanooga, TN)
I purchased this product for my brother and his wife. They have been using it a little over a week. They say it is wonderful - molds to the body - stays cold longer-refreezes quickly. They are really enjoying this product. My brother says it is really well made.

life saver, July 10, 2010
By me in winnebago(rockton, il)
My physical therapist suggested I get one of these years ago for back pain. This is my SECOND purchase. I take one with me when ever I have to ride in the car for too long. I could not live without it! Excellent quality. My first one is over 5 years old and is still in EXCELLENT condition.

Keep in Freezer - A Must!, July 10, 2010
By Needing the Cold, But Left with the Lumps(Seattle, WA)
There should be instructions directing consumers that the colpac MUST be kept in the freezer at all times or the gel will harden. When my freezer got too full I had to take my oversized colpac out and store it in the cupboard until I had room again in the freezer. I was very disappointed that it is no longer soft and flexible, but hard and lumpy! What a waste!

By Wendy(Miami Gardens, Fl.)
I was thinking the size would be larger but overall I love the product. It gets cold quickly and stays cold for a long time. It helps to relieve pain in my back.

Very happy with this product. Bought three ice packs, so I have a "cold one" at all times. Really helps with pain from bulging disc.

So superior to what I had at home., December 20, 2009
By JM(Birmingham Ala)
It is just what I needed. I train three times a week and use this item after each workout. It stays in place and stays at optimum temperature. It is a good size and uniformly cold from end to end.

Works well for years, September 7, 2009
By StLCardinal Fan(Columbia, SC)
I have used Colpac, mostly the oversized version, for nearly 20 years as part of my back exercise program. The product works as advertised, year after year, retaining cold for well over the 30 minute treatment time recommended. I have purchased six in that time, and currently have two that I use once per week or more.
Eventual failure of my Colpacs has always occurred via a small crack initiating at the edge of the seam joint on the periphery of the rectangular pack. The average life of the Colpac has ranged from 5 to 10 years from my experience, which is more than I had expected given the amount of use that they undergo.
