Well made product
As I approached my third achilles surgery, I knew that this was a dire need. I had previously borrowed a similar Ossur model from a friend after the 2nd surgery – and boy – did I wish I had it for the 1st! I decided to purchase my own since I knew this would be a long haul. This machine is quiet and works great. There was no leaking, it was easy to use and kept the water cold for an extended period of time. The size and weight are managable for anyone to use. Very happy with this purchase and glad I have it in case any other issues pop up down the road. This is a must have for any type of knee, shoulder or ankle foot injury or surgery. Highly recommend.

Built for Sprains, Strains, and Stupidity
Five stars are fairy dust, one star is therapy. Here’s the actual story.Four teenage boys, all athletes, all convinced their bodies are indestructible. They dive, twist, roll, and slam like there’s a prize for collecting injuries. They treat their bodies like rental cars, and we need the Cold Rush to patch them up. The first unit made it five years under this nonstop abuse, which is basically a miracle. This new one stepped in and hasn’t missed a beat. Quiet, cold, and more reliable than my kids’ decision making. I only award five stars after five years of unshakable perfection, so this one is based off it’s predecessor!

A very convenient and well engineered product.
After two complete knee replacements (left and right leg), within the time period of a 5 months, icing is a necessity to cut the swelling. Tried using zip-lock bags filled with ice and wrapped up in a pillow case: it was difficult to position, always seemed wet from both ice melting and from condensation. I purchased the Cold Rush a few weeks after my first surgery: what a difference. Convenient and comfortable. The whole concept is extremely simple. The Cold Rush is essentially an insulated cooler with a small pump similar to recirculate water through the pad. It doesn’t leak, is easy to fill and refill, and eliminates all of the mess of soggy ice bags, wrapped in a towel.I purchased the unit only and matched it with a Cold Rush knee pad. Included with the pad are two Velcro straps which hold the pad in place without exerting much pressure. I highly recommend the unit for both convenience and as a better alternative to ice bags. If I was purchasing the unit now, with what I know: I’d have bought the smaller unit, (no need for quite so much ice as this unit will hold, and I would opt for the universal pad. It will work as well as the knee pad, (assuming there is not a need for an opening for the knee), as well as being useable for other situations (shoulder, hip, arm etc.). When I initially read some of the reviews it was pointed out that the pads are not warranted as they are considered a “single-use item”, (obviously the pads would be discarded after each use in a hospital or professional therapy environment). I have used the knee pad many times without any indications that it is wearing out, if used carefully should perform well for many uses.

Works Great But May Be A One Shot Deal
I purchased this for my wife after she had knee replacement surgery. She read online great reviews about using these type icing machines. We settled on this one and it did not disappoint us. It is easy to use and stays cold all day. The universal pad covers the right areas around and on top of her knee. It never leaked.Fast forward several months later and my wife had her second knee replaced. I got out the machine and just like many other have stated, it failed to work. I measured the input voltage and it was right on 12 volts so that wasn’t the problem. It appears that the pump is frozen up, probably from scale in our water supply, while it set up for 5 months or so. Since it was already broken, I tried to take it apart and it is impossible to do. After removing all visible screws I could get it partially open but not enough to get to the pump. The tank will come out some but the hoses stop it from coming out. Bottom line is that it is in the trash bin now.I would highly recommend this unit but would caution you to run it periodically if it is stored or at least give it a proper flushing with maybe distilled water before storage. Maybe that would help.

Ice pack works better than this expensive machine
I ordered this a few weeks before my knee was being scoped because I wanted to be sure I had it in time and I wasn’t sure how long it would take to receive it. I got it quicker than I thought I would (based on how long I’ve waited for other amazon items I’ve ordered). It does NOT work well at all! It doesn’t get cold enough. It is a waste of money! Do not order this machine! I attempted to return it due to the fact that it doesn’t perform AS DESCRIBED by the vendor. Both the vendor QUANTUM DENTAL AND AMAZON are refusing to let me return because it was ONE day past the 30 days for returns deadline. I explained to both why it was past 30 days, I got it so early ( not typical for amazon vendors) I had it for weeks before my surgery and hadn’t used it until AFTER my surgery. Tried it 3 times adjusted the setting to max and it still didn’t work, I had to switch to ice packs that actually work. I now own a $175.00 (cost of machine and pad) door stop and use a functional ice pack from Walgreens on my knee! I was a frequent customer of Amazon I mean WAS. This mess with the ice machine is a deal breaker. I’m done with Amazon! Urgent care makes this machine but the seller is called Quantum Dental! Their customer service is horrible, don’t do business with them!
