Just as good as the more expensive gel packs! I "tested" these out fully, for a few months straight, due to severe chronic pain.
I chose them due to the size & price. They were enclosed inside a cardstock weight store hang rack style box (like you'd find at Walgreens & such). So, while stuck in bed, I fully read the box, glad I did. The info on the box stated this is a small company started by a woman wanting to offer affordable quality gel packs, & her company also donates a portion of sales to a local Native American tribe (the box got thrown away before I could write this, so my apologies this review is short on details). I'd be more than happy to purchase from this company again, not only for the price & quality, but also for the info about the company background. As a woman with some Native American heritage & my own small business, I'm happy to know I helped support this company! : )
The gel packs themselves are truly just as good as the costlier brands. They are a thick, flexible, sturdy plastic/vinyl (?), generously filled with a clear gel, which cools in the freezer quickly, & stays cool just as long as the other brands. The only difference, besides the price, I can really find, would be the color; the gel is clear, instead of blue. This makes no difference, especially since I just slip each of my gel packs into socks (like pillow cases), so they have instant covers, keeping them from having direct contact with skin.
When I need more, in other sizes, I will be sure to come back to this brand! Thanks for the awesome gel packs, the price, & the great company background!
Arrived on time, good packing, and I'm quite satisfied w/ these two 6x10 hot/cold gel packs. Nice. Works great and feeeeeeels terrific when warm on my arthritic knees. Fits into my existing gel pack wraps! Happy camper am I.
There's nothing I dislike about these packs.
They look and feel like great quality! So, a really reasonable price.
I use them for my migraines .
I haven't used them hot yet. Only cold. But so far so great :)
Very satisfied with the product, packaging and shipping time. The gel freezes very cold but still molds around the curve of the knee in use. Would purchase this product again.
These work great. I bought them to use with the covers I bought. They were a perfect fit for the wraps I bought.

accurate Item description
I get migraines pretty frequently and I bought this as a replacement for my old ice pack after it bit the dust. It stays cold for a good amount of time and does not take long to refreeze. Would buy again.
fkexible and comfortable
Item arrived as described and works great.
I had recently purchased the Life and Limb Gel 10" x 12" medium wrap, as well as an extra gel pack the same size - I keep both gel packs in the freezer. I use it for cold therapy for a very bad knee, and I'm VERY happy with the wrap and the gel packs! By the way, the 10" x 12" gel packs stay quite cold plenty long enough for me (I use one from 20-40 minutes at a time).
Now and then I get stubborn bad headaches that cold packs can help where nothing else will, so I decided to get a couple of the smaller size of gel packs - the 6" x 10" ones - to keep in the freezer for those times. These will be MUCH easier to use than an ice bag for my head! I'll just need to wrap one, or both, in a thin towel to use.
