I love this old fashioned ice bag! It it more comfortable than standard ice bag or mom's old bag of peas. I was initially concerned that the interior would be a breeding ground for germs and other microbial life but after several uses it stays clean as ling as it is allowed to dry completely after each use. It can be used for hot or cold applications which is nice. As a nursing student I know that heat increases blood flow to an area which increases healing and provides comfort and that cold applications reduce inflammation and confuse nerve cells to reduce pain and discomfort. This is excellent for all members of the family and makes my job as mom easier to fix the boo-boos.
Exactly as described.Shipped to me VERY quickly.Works GREAT.NO leaks,NO moisture on bag.Only use as ICE bag.Holds the cold for a few hours.And by the way,I did NOT receive any reduced price as part of any promotion,or trial.Just happen to be satisfied with product!
Like many before me, I remember as a child using a hot water bag to be used when feeling sick or having a bruise, ache or pain. Specifically, it was a red, rubber pouch. Well, I've been meaning to buy one for myself because of a bad back and I settled on the AZMED Ice bag. I was pleased to see that it could be used for hot water as well because that would be my immediate use for it.
The size is a little larger than my hand and when full of water, it just about covers the width of my back. The outside is a soft nylon material that sort of spirals from the opening. The opening is made of a durable plastic with a metal ring around the outside. The cap is made of plastic as well. It's kind of like a balloon, you can blow into it to inflate it, which means that its not too stiff and will fill with water easily. I've used it several times and have not hand any issue with leaks.
I've actually set it against the back of an arm chair and sat down with the bag up against my back and it was as comfortable as a heating pad. It contorts easily around your body, like I said, not stiff at all.
It does get very hot when using hot tap water so I had to add some cold water. The directions say not to add boiling water so I'm afraid that if my tap water is too hot, it could damage the inside. It lasts for a good 20-30 minutes before needing to empty and add more hot water. When I used to use a heating pad, it didn't have a timer or anything so it would stay on until I turned it off. With this bag, it cools on its own, so no need to remove it. I also save on some electricity. You can obviously wrap a cloth or towel around it to lessen the heat.
Also, to dry it out, it's pretty simple. I open it up and set it on top of my towel rack in my bathroom, so that it is resting against the wall, with the opening facing the ground. Any water drips onto the towel and after a day or so, its pretty much dry.
I have yet to try it with cold water, maybe once summer gets here, Ill try it out to stay cool.
All in all, I've been pleased with the AZMED water bag and I am glad I chose this one.
Preheated some water to 140 degrees fahrenheit, the max recommended, and it stayed warm for hours. It's very pliable and soft. At 140 it stayed very warm but not uncomfortably so, easy to prop open to dry after use.
Very VERY nice product. will expand to hold oversize cubes, and the material is both comfortable and non-sliding, so it will not slip off your skin. I can use this without having to have a towel under it, which is a very convenient and unexpected feature. The only issue I have is emptying it, as the cubes tend to stick inside to folds, which is definitely NOT an issue, just something to be aware of. The first time it took me a minute to sort of squeeze them out, but the next time I just added a half cup or so of warm water, swished it around and everything came right out. I also love the fact it goes right back to the smaller folded size for storage

Really happy with this ice bag. It has a nice soft feel on the outside, which is great because I was using it on my face. It's very well made. I feel this will hold up well and I won't have any leaking issues. For around $8 you'll be happy with this purchase.
Excellent quality! Purchased 2 for use after surgery and the ice stayed firm for hours. At one point I fell asleep and must have turned over because the bag was on the bed next to me. The ice was halfway melted but there wasn’t a single drop on my bed. Plan on purchasing another for a friend who is going to go through a similar surgery. Highly recommend!
This shipped really fast and the 9 inch bag is a good size, I was looking at other bags that were six inches and I believe that size would be too small. The bag has a nice wide opening that makes it easy to fill with ice and water. This is a good thing to have on hand at the house for muscle aches or injuries, and it won’t leak like a zip lock bag filled with ice would.
The material is super soft to the touch and stays warm for a couple hours after adding hot tap water. I’m actually using it as a head rest in my lazy chair now, and it’s nice and warm on my neck and makes me miss my 1980’s waterbed. Two thumbs up, I’d order it again.
This bag has been so useful for me and my boyfriend. We have had no issues using it with ice or hot water. It has been perfect to soothe the pain of wisdom teeth removal, menstrual cramping, injured knee, and stomach aches.
I got this due to surgery a distance from home and I knew I could fill it with ice at any motel or fast food place. In the past, I have kept ice packs around for injuries but they are a mess in the freezer. This can be thrown in a drawer or on a shelf and filled with ice and a little water to spread the cold. It works great. I used it all day for 3 days and a couple of times since. Transfers temperature well and does not leak. TIP- fill with ice, put in a cup of water, push the air outbefore you screw the cap tight. It contours to the body part better and transfers the cold better.
