If you're looking for a cold pack, look elsewhere September 4, 2010 GetSheila As noted by other reviewers, the body wrap does not work at all well as a cold pack, even though it is advertised as such. It has been in my freezer for over a week and I am wearing it now on one shoulder with an $8 Thermipaq I bought at the grocery store with an internal liquid/gel substance on the other. There is a noticeable difference. The grocery store liquid/gel pack is much cooler.
I have not tried the body wrap as a heat pack but other reviews say it burns up or breaks down rather quickly. Not promising.
Side tip: a physical therapist told me I could make my own "ghetto ice pack" with 1/3 cup vodka to 2 cups water in a Ziploc bag. Also works with rubbing alcohol.
Wonderful! September 3, 2010 NaomiS I absolutely love my wrap and use it daily at work. The only problem I've had is that I have burned two of them in the microwave! I have discovered that my microwave runs a little hot. However I can obtain the perfect amount of heat at 70% power. I would definitely recommend this hot pack!
not recommend! as cold pack July 20, 2010 Jack.S (Los Angeles) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought it for a cold pack, but it doesn't work! I placed it in fregirator for whole day and it just doesn't get cold. Before throwing it away, I checked what's in the bag. And there was tons raw rice filled in a sack... I just don't get it how does raw rice could be work as a hot pack or cold pack. Anyway if your looking for a cold pack, buy other, not bed buddy.
super product June 5, 2010 Anon. I borrowed a friends Bed Buddy, Back wrap,loved it and had to have one ,I shopped around found the product, and price I wanted on Amazon.I am having spine surgery shortly and at night i use it in microwave then I might freeze it ,I use it in the car it stays warm quite a while.wonderful quick service Thanks,
Great option for heat on sore muscles April 22, 2010 Florence Mcvety (Warren, Michigan United States) I really like this product. It is great for
stiff neck or aching muscles in the neck and
shoulder area. Because it is fairly heavy, it
stays in place nicely and stays warm for a long
time.
