General Medi Instant Ice Cold Pack (4”x 5.5”) – 8 Packs Disposable Cold Therapy Ice Packs for Pain Relief, Swelling, Inflammation, Sprains, Toothache – for Athletes & Outdoor Activities

This is the second time buying an instant cold ice pack. This is a different brand than before. I am completely shocked how cold these are compared to the other brand! I bought them to keep in the car and for soccer games. We tried one, shook it, folded in half and you hear a pop and it got cold immediately! Then shake it again. It was cold! Super surprised. I was super skeptical about this especially “instant cold” It was cold as if I just took it out of the refrigerator or if it was in the freezer for an hour or less. Very surprised how cold it got! Which is great for soccer games. Again I only have tested 1 so far. We shall see the others. Definitely recommend, so far so good. Very flexible and bendable. Lasted for a good solid 10 mins. No issues with packaging. I’m sure that’s a hit and miss and depends how far the box is traveling I’m sure.

Really easy tonight but they only stay cold for about 10 mins

These cold packs are great to keep on hand! I ordered these to keep my hands cool while bowling in my weekly league. To keep them from warming up and swelling. Though these don't stay cold enough through all 3 games, they really did help. I've also had a couple of migraines that I've used these for. I applied them to my forehead and back of my neck. The cold relief was helpful to take the edge off of the pain. It got me thinking. These are great to keep on hand for various bumps, bruises, headaches and fevers. They're very handy to store in your vehicle for all 'in case of emergency' scenarios. Even being stuck in traffic on a hot day, these would be helpful. These are quite handy to keep around. They aren't sticky either. Nor do they really have a wet feel. There's a slight bit of moisture transfer from the cold but not much. I didn't notice any smell. This is a great product! The reason for the 4 stars is longevity of keeping cool and that there was a dud in the box that wouldn't crack or cool. Not too bad though! Would purchase again!!

Wow, the cold is really instant! I got about 10 minutes you could really call cold, 20 more of cool until it was all done. This will be a nice item to whip out of my bag if someone gets overheated. Sure, I wish it was a little lighter and stayed cold longer, but such are the constraints of this size and price point.

Bought for my kiddo to keep in their sports bag. Works in a pinch and helpful to have on hand. Gave three stars 1) need to be careful not to break the outside pouch when activating or they leak water. Was an issue at first but we figured out how to avoid this. 2) cold at first but lasts shorter than other cold packs. 3) packs are smaller then other options. In the end, good to have in our bag but would recommend other options for serious sports players that would benefit from a bigger cold pack that stays colder longer. Fine for younger kids.
