I've used a similar unit in the past. However, the deciding factor in purchasing this particular unit was the auto on/off cycle timer, which no other company offer's. You can set it for how long you want it run and how long you want it to shut off before it runs again. Recently I have been dealing with a lot of knee pain and stiffness while trying to sleep, it's been 3-1/2 months since my surgery. To the point I am back having to use crutch's when I first get out of bed, until I do an ice therapy session. So I decided to experiment and use the machine throughout the whole night while in bed. First couple of nights I tried different cycle times, 20 mins on/20 off. Then 30/20. Finally settled on 40 mins on/10 mins off. Now when I get up in the mornings I feel so much better. I'm not in nearly as much pain nor do I have as much stiffness! Also, I no long need the crutch's when I first wake up. Having the on/off cycle timer is such an added benefit! Due to being a multi sport athlete and years of injury and competition I just had my fourth knee surgery, I borrowed a similar unit on my last surgery that wasn't available to me this time. I thought I would just use ice this time. After two days of intense pain and swelling almost the same, I ordered this unit. I love it! The bladders have the wrap attached to it which makes it very convenient and easy to put on & off. This unit also has auto on/off timer that I love. You can set it to run from 10 minutes to 16-1/2 hours. You can also set it for how long you want it off before it kicks back on again. Which is nice because you can have it on a lot longer than ice and you can sleep with it on. Within 24 hours my swelling was reduced by more than half of what it was and so was the pain. Ice, if left on to long can be counter productive and can be messy. I did have a small issue when I first received it, not a real big deal. However, I called the manufacture, Polar Products and they were really nice and took care of it immediately. While talking to them, found out they were actually local to me (Stow, Ohio) and they invited me out. They are a small family owned company with great people and a great product and worth the extra money I paid. Don't be afraid to spend the extra money for this product, Don't be penny wise and dollar foolish. While I was at their facility I was asked if I would be interested in testing reusable Ice packs they are developing to reduce having to keep continuing emptying water and adding ice. I feel they are working very well, maintaining good temperature for 6-8 hours. Take them out, wipe them off and put them back in freezer and grab another set. This unit is something I would suggest having and wearing the moment you get home from surgery. This will help cut days even weeks off of dealing with pain and swelling. Also; I wear mine 30 minutes on/10 minutes off/30 minutes on, then i get up and walk as much as I can with or without crutches, then repeat. After four knee surgery's I have learned how important it is to get it moving as soon and as much as possible. However, getting the swelling down as soon as possible is a huge factor and this unit helps do that. As I am now in therapy, they will typically ice you at the end. I elect not to have them do this and I come home and put my knee bladder on. My opinion it much more effective and more comfortable. I don't understand why therapy does not use them. I know this was long but I hope my experience will help someone or many with a faster recovery, being on crutches and laid up is no fun! Review: Polar ice 3.0 cold therapy - This item works amazing! Had knee surgery monday, this machine does all it says & more. Lasts for hours before you have to swap out more frozen bottles. It is whisper quiet & saves time & energ6 having to swap out regular icepacks every 20 minutes. You can set the time as long or little as you would like. I let it run all night. I do recommend wearing clothing or using a small wash cloth to protect your skin from ice burn. Over pj's pants works fine. I highly recommend this product from a family business & made is the USA. They have a phone number to contact them if needed also.

It is well made with three straps provided. I'm using it for rotator cuff surgery and it's terrific **Q: Is it normal to have condensation on the pad at times? How can I fix this issue?** A: Ensure that when you plug/attach the bladder pad to the tubing that it is in securely and the tubing is straight. Sometimes if the shirt you are wearing can be too heavy and cause condensation. It is best to wear a tee shirt and keep the I e machine on for only 15-20 minutes. **Q: How is the unit powered ?** A: The AIS3.0 system is powered by a 120/240 VAC 50/60 Hz Adapter converting to 12 VDC for the AIS operation **Q: Can it be used on foot after surgery?** A: Hi, We make a specific therapy pads that will work for the foot. We make a standard foot pad, a large foot pad, and our universal pad will work on a foot as well. We'd recommend purchasing one of those systems for the foot and not the knee system.

This was a must and a lifesaver when I had total knee replacement. Made me feel so much more comfortable. No leakage and excellent design. Keeps the water ice cold for hours. Easy to refill & not too heavy. The pad is adjustable so you move around easily to where you need the cold. My Ortho’s office offered some but they were twice he price. This was a great value for the money. A must have for knee injuries or surgery’s. ## Frequently Bought Together - Polar Active Ice 3.0 | 9 QT Cold Therapy Ice Machine | Programmable Timer | Knee & Joint Pad | Cryotherapy Pain Relief System | Ace Bandage Style Compression - LightEase Memory Foam Leg Support and Elevation Pillow w/Dual Handles for Surgery, Injury, or Rest - Asunby Knee Cast Cover for Shower Waterproof Bandage Cast covers Protector for Knee Replacement Surgery, Wound, Burns Watertight Protection Reusable --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/85683332-polar-active-ice-3-0-9-qt-cold-therapy-ice](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/85683332-polar-active-ice-3-0-9-qt-cold-therapy-ice) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
