I wear this [Kool Max® Zipper Front Vest] when it gets into the triple digits, and it keeps me cool for about two hours. If I don't wear it I get the light headed and start to feel the onset of heat exhaustion after an hour. The vest is a life saver for me. It is very comfortable and adjusts very easy to fit my body. I would definitely recommend this to anyone."-Ryan in Sacramento Product: Kool Max® Zipper Front Vest | |
"Bought this product [Industrial Cooling Kit] for traveling to work in Mexico the product worked perfectly lasted about 3 to 4 hours in a plant that was 100 degrees or above the neck wrap only lasted for a little more than an hour but only took about 30 minutes to refreeze in the cooler that i bought from polar products it was well worth the money."-Brad H. in TN Product: Industrial Cooling Kit | |
"We purchased this [Kool Max® Military and Industrial Pack Set] [Adjustable Zipper Cooling Vest with (4) Long Kool Max® Pack Strips] to try for one of the welders in our shop. Our shop isn't climate controlled, and here in Savannah, GA the summers are HOT and HUMID. We decided to get this vest to try for one of our welders, and wow, what a difference. Within 20 minutes of putting the vest on, he stops sweating and works much more comfortably. End result: our productivity went way up. Within the next couple months, we purchased several more for the rest of our welders and it makes the entire climate in our shop better. More comfortable employees makes for a happier workplace all around, and our productivity stays strong even in the most miserably hot days of summer."-MJ in Savannah, GA | |

Farmers | |
"I bought two of these because my husband and I work in the south Texas heat hay farming. The reason for just four stars is that the vest is a bit heavy for me and I find that after the ice melts, it becomes a heating vest. However, I did purchase additional ice packs and can refresh the vest when needed. On the other hand, my Yankee born husband has none of my issues and will wear the vest for 8 to 10 hours with absolutely no issues."-Flo B. in Texas Product: Adjustable Zipper Cooling Vest with | |

Recently we ran out Soft Ice® Cold Packs in the emergency room and we were forced to use ice chips as our In House Department does. We found the use of ice chips to be unacceptable compared to Soft Ice® Cold Packs. Ice chips were messy, did not conform to the target body part as well and were less convenient for the staff. Ice chips just didn't work as well Soft Ice® Cold Packs. We were glad to get our new shipment of Soft Ice® Cold Packs." - Lynn Fendenheim, Clinical Coordinator, Children's Hospital Medical Center of Akron in Akron, Ohio Product: Soft Ice® Cold Packs | |

Massage Therapists | |
"I found that Roller Ice maintains its temperature, which is colder than conventional cold therapy body tools. This meant I could treat throughout the therapy session as needed without leaving my client to go to the freezer. The size of the roller ball was perfect for accu-massage therapy. The rubber reservoir fits the hand nicely and it can be used without causing strain to the therapist's hand or wrist." - Carol Carlton, B.A., M.T., in Akron, Ohio Product: Roller Ice | |
"I personally use the Thera-Temp® Microwaveable Moist Heat Wrap and find it to be the best and most effective source of moist heat heating product available on the market.

The design and weight of the beads in the Thera-Temp Microwaveable Moist Heat Wrap conforms well to the body, and its natural cotton is very comfortable against the skin. This product also holds its heat for periods longer than any other product on the market that I have used. I highly recommend this product which is ideal for both office and home care." - Heidi Jo Knudson, Massage Therapist, Extraordinary Journey's Center in Stillwater, Minnesota | |

Bus Drivers | |
"Last year I suffered from the early stages of heat exhaustion driving the bus in our high temperatures and humidity in Tennessee. It was just too hot to work safely. I ordered the Polar KMVZ-KM Kool Max vest this year and it has been a game changer! I just drove my school bus for just over 2 hours in heat that started out at 110 degrees and worked its way down to 92 degrees with the windows open. When I exited the bus I still had another 45 minutes or so left on my vest. I was not even sweating! Not a drop! I showed all of my supervisors how the vest worked. Truly amazing! Thanks so much. Game changer…………"-Mark R., Cookeville, TN Product: Kool Max® Adjustable Zipper Vest |
