Customer Reviews of 9x12 Comfort Gel Pack
Customer Review: Best of the bunch
Summary: 5 Stars
I tried several of the cold packs currently on offer at Amazon, and the Comfort Gel Pack is the best one I've found.
I use a cold pack as a cushion over a frozen pack (the kind used for shipping cold medicine). The Comfort Gel Pack is much more flexible than the packs with heavy vinyl skins, such as Chattanooga Standard Size Cold Pack - 11" x 14" ColPac - Blue Vinyl Ice Pack #1500 and Cold Pack - ColPaC Brand - Blue Vinyl - Oversize - 11" x 21". The greater flexibility makes the pack much more comfortable and more effective to use with a frozen cold pack.
For me, the Comfort Gel Pack stays at its coldest for about 20 minutes and retains a noticeable coolness for an additional 30 minutes (in a warm room). This is notably longer than others I've tried. It may be that the gel in those other packs is staying cool longer, but you can't feel the cool any more because of the heavy skin.
Another characteristic of this pack is its complete absence of odor. Some brands get absolutely stinky as the pack warms up. (None of the ones I bought on Amazon are all that smelly, however.)
The main drawback of the Comfort Gel Pack is that it's more fragile than the thick-skinned packs, so you're obliged to be more careful with it. It is, however, significantly less expensive than some others.
My second favorite gel pack is the Ace Reusable Cold Compress (with a surface called Soft Touch Fabric). I bought this in a drugstore, but I see that Amazon has it as Becton Dickenson 58207517 7.5 x 11.5 Inch Ace Reusable Cold Compress - Blue. This compress is flexible and reasonably comfortable, but contains a a minimum of gel. I don't know if any of the packs have gel formulas that make them retain coolness longer. As far as I can tell, the variation relates directly to the amount of gel in the pack and the insularity/thickness of the pack surface.
