Details: My husband is using this machine following knee replacement. It has really helped with swelling and pain, reducing his need for narcotics. I love that I can just put 6 frozen water bottles in the cooler, rather than fooling with bags of ice. I also bought the knee wrap for the pad, which makes putting it on and off a breeze. This has been well worth the investment, 100%.

Details: I had a total knee replacement and needed a way to ice it. So now instead of having to go get an ice pack use it for 10 minutes then put it back in freezer and repeat. I just wrap my knee set the timers and let it work. I set it for 10 minutes on and 10 minutes off. This is a must have.

Details: For my daughter’s first surgery, the nurse said Keyra would probably get a call from an ice machine company. The nurse said if insurance doesn’t pay for it, just say no and use ice packs following the surgery. Since Keyra needed a 2nd surgery, I decided this time we should do an ice machine. I started researching how much they cost outright. You came up high in the search, so I checked you out. I needed it sooner than the product would ship when ordering directly from you, but I checked it out o... More details

Details: I recently had tendon replacement surgery on my ankle and a reset of my heel. I am 6 days post op and I cannot say enough good things about how this is helping my recovery. I also have an upcoming shoulder surgery and ordered the shoulder pad to go with it. We use frozen water bottles which is really convenient and easy. I can tell when I am on the off cycle sometimes as it is the only time I feel a bit of pain. I don’t have to bother anyone to get me ice bags. I can tell my swelling has gone do... More details

Details: This is an amazing product that greatly helps with recovery after surgery. There is one reason for not giving it 5 stars: the small straps that wrap around bicep are very hard to do with one good hand. Otherwise, the cooler itself stays cold all night when I use 5 to 6 frozen water bottles. The unit is quiet. The programmable timer, is unique at this price level and is the main reason I purchased this product. I could set the on / off times and go to sleep and be comfortable all night long.

Details: I purchased the Active Ice 3.0 system on a recommendation from a friend to be used after my shoulder surgery for a rotator cuff tear. I ordered late so the first night my wife had to change my ice pack every 30-60 minutes, throughout the night. What a nightmare. My order arrived the day after surgery and with one arm I was able to assemble and use it within 5 minutes of arrival. The 2nd night both my wife and I were able to sleep through most of the night other than taking some pain meds every 5... More details

Details: Big shout out to the folks at Polar Products. Bought their Active Ice 3.0 machine a few years ago when I had rotator cuff surgery. It really helped reducing post-surgical inflammation and pain. When in for thumb surgery yesterday, but forgot to check out my machine ahead of time. Turned out I had a pinhole and needed a part. I called Polar and they sent me the part I needed yesterday afternoon via FEDEX for Saturday delivery. The part has arrived, I'm using the machine and my pain level is alrea... More details

Details: At the moment I can't imagine a night without this device. I am 17 months after knee surgery and developed the issue that my knee turns warm and irritated when inactive, so definetly when sleeping. Without this device I would wake up after several hours and it took so long to sleep again. I really love the timer, so comfy that you just can go sleep in silence and it will just go on at night. I am now slowly lengthening the off time, hopefully my knee will then turn to normal some day. Tip (yes i... More details

Details: I recommend this due to the fact this will help you immensely with reducing the swelling and pain. I suggest to also process the kneepad wrapping that goes over the cold pad that you use around a knee. The pad comes with a strap but the knee pad over it does the job. I also suggest to Add the timer and to use frozen water bottles instead of using ice and having to empty the unit. This will save you much time and with the time or you know the device is being used when you want it to be used.

Would you recommend this to a friend?: If you have any surgery this certainly will help reduce your pain during the time you heal.

Details: I bought this to make icing easier after knee-replacement surgery. The timer makes it possible to ice off-and-on all day without struggling to get a new ice pack from the freezer every couple of hours. It’s pricey, but it is such a great product that I’m happy to pay the person who came up with this fantastic contraption every penny. Every household should have one for the random twisted ankle or banged-up shoulder.

Details: This system has been a Godsend for my wife after knee surgery. She was off pain meds after a couple of days and now just uses this system. No drugs! It’s been super easy for me to manage too. I found some containers that are just the size to fit in the main area of the ice well. With a block of ice that big, the system works for 24 hours without replacing the ice. Each night I swap the block from that day with a totally frozen one and she’s good for 24 hours. Water/ice stays in the container so ... More details

Details: I've use your WONDERFUL machine on two knees and my hip and will be using it for my shoulder shortly. This machine helps take the pain away SO MUCH!!

Location: Washington

Details: I picked this up for upcoming shoulder replacement, but have been using it on my recently replaced knee as well. On first glance, the components seem very simplistic and you begin to wonder about the mark up. I can’t fault it’s effectiveness, however. Be sure to use frozen water bottles vs ice. It makes setup and cleaning so much simpler. The only issue was the universal therapy pad connection to the dual hose can sometimes kink, so I’ve learned to keep the feeder hose as straight as possible (b... More details

Details: Great Product as always. This is my second Polar Products ice therapy machine. I needed this one because it has a telescopic handle and wheels. I was recently in a wreck on my Harley and broke off 11 ribs. This machine is helping tremendously. Tip for ice. Instead of ice cubes, double the water and add 9ea 16oz frozen water bottles. It lasts about 10 hrs.

Details: The best investment in inflammation control after a knee replacement. This is a fantastic product. I use frozen water bottles and rotate them out when needed. When I received the Active Ice unit there was a leak in a female coupling. Polar Products stood behind their product and sent, overnight, a replacement. I consider that an amazing company that will do that. I cannot stress enough how well this works. I tried ice packs but they were horrible compared to the Active ice unit.

Details:

The Cold Therapy System works excellent to relieve my knee pain and swelling. There is one issue, the long stretchy belt provided to hold the bladder alone doesn't really do the job, and I would suggest that you include a shorter wrap for the bottom of the pad to secure and place the cold therapy. I purchased another belt separately.

Details: I have been using this system 3 times per day for about 3 weeks and I love it. It is of great quality and it controls my swelling quite well. I had right knee replacement surgery a month ago and I was using an ice bag but it just did not seem to do the trick. The therapy system targeted all the right areas and I think it made a big difference for my recovery. I HIGHLY recommend this quality system.

Details: We bought the Polar Ice Machine, knee compression and the temperature control and car plugin power.

We are quite thrilled with the whole works and fully recommend this!
