MaxCOMFORT™ System — Extra-Large Cold Therapy (Model 550) The largest Ice It! MaxCOMFORT system — generous 9" × 20" coverage for the back, hip, abdomen, or wrapped around the knee. Three 6" × 9" cold packs sit in a 3-section fabric cover for even cold distribution. Stays cold for almost 40 minutes. Wide, fully removable elastic strap with Hook & Loop fasteners. Better than the ice packs used at physical therapy. $40.99. Extra-Large 9" × 20" 3-Pack / 3-Section Cover ~40 Minutes Cold Back · Hip · Abdomen · Knee Flexible When Frozen $40.99 ★★★★★ I bought this because I did some knee damage. I bought the back ice pack not only for my back but so that I can wrap it all the way around my knee. It is even better than the ones used at PT which I am currently trying before a full knee replacement. It stays very cold for almost 40 minutes which is great. I purchased because I have a twenty year old heating pad that is still the best I have ever used. So far the ice packs are really doing a great job! — Verified Customer Our Take: The Model 550 is the largest Ice It! MaxCOMFORT system, and the review above shows exactly why people buy it: versatility and duration. At 9" × 20" it's big enough for full back coverage, a hip, or the abdomen — but it's also large enough to wrap all the way around a knee, which is how this customer uses it pre-knee-replacement. The 3-section cover holds three 6" × 9" cold packs evenly spaced, so there are no gaps in coverage. And the ~40-minute cold duration is a standout — that's a full therapy session without swapping packs, significantly longer than generic alternatives. The review also highlights something we see often: a Thermophore heating pad owner for 20 years who now adds Ice It! cold therapy to their toolkit. Heat for chronic stiffness, cold for acute inflammation — the complete Battle Creek system. Replacement D-Packs (Model 585) are available for rotation. If you need a slightly smaller system, the Model 540 Large ($35.99) has two packs in a 6" × 18" cover. Why You'd Choose the Model 550 Extra-large 9" × 20" — the biggest Ice It! systemGenerous coverage for the full lower back, hip, or abdomen. Also large enough to wrap all the way around a knee for complete surround coverage. The biggest MaxCOMFORT system available. 3-section cover — even cold distribution, no gapsThe fabric cover is divided into three sections, each holding one 6" × 9" cold pack. This keeps packs evenly spaced across the full 9" × 20" area. No bunching, no gaps, uniform cold therapy from end to end. Stays cold ~40 minutes — a full therapy sessionCustomers report the packs stay very cold for almost 40 minutes — a complete therapy session without swapping packs. Significantly longer than frozen peas, gel packs, or generic ice packs that warm up in 15–20 minutes. Better than the ice packs used at PTCustomers preparing for knee replacement report the 550 works even better than the ice packs used at physical therapy. Professional-grade cold therapy at home — and you own it for repeated use. Wraps around the knee for full surround coverageWhile designed for back/hip/abdomen, the generous 9" × 20" size wraps all the way around the knee. Three packs surround the entire joint — front, sides, and back. A versatile alternative to the knee-specific Model 512. Elastic strap — adjustable compression, hands-freeThe wide, fully removable elastic strap with Hook & Loop fasteners on each end holds the system in place. Adjustable compression. Hands-free therapy — relax, read, or continue light activities. Flexible when frozen — molds to body contoursAll three cold packs remain pliable at freezer temperature. They conform to the curve of the back, hip, or knee for maximum contact and deeper cold penetration. Replacement D-Packs available for rotationBuy D-Pack Singles (Model 585) as refills. Keep spare sets in the freezer for continuous rotation during extended therapy sessions — especially useful during post-surgery recovery. Tip: Tab to a reason. Press Enter or Space to toggle details.

The Model 550 is the extra-large Ice It system designed for generous coverage on the back, hip, or abdomen. The 9 by 20 inch fabric cover holds three 6 by 9 inch cold packs in three separate sections for even, wide-area cold therapy. It can also be wrapped around larger joints like the knee for full surround coverage. How long do the cold packs stay cold? Customers report the packs stay very cold for almost 40 minutes, which is significantly longer than generic ice packs or frozen peas. The gel fill is formulated to maintain its temperature longer for maximum therapeutic benefit. Keep a second set of D-Packs in the freezer for rotation during extended sessions. What is included in the box? The Model 550 includes three 6 by 9 inch cold packs, a 9 by 20 inch fabric cover divided into three sections to hold each cold pack securely, and a wide fully removable elastic strap with Hook and Loop fasteners on each end for adjustable compression. Can I wrap this around my knee? Yes. While the 550 is designed for the back, hip, and abdomen, its generous 9 by 20 inch size makes it large enough to wrap all the way around the knee for full surround coverage. Customers recovering from knee injuries and preparing for knee replacement report it works even better than the ice packs used at physical therapy. How does the 3-section cover work? The fabric cover is divided into three separate sections, each holding one 6 by 9 inch cold pack. This keeps the packs evenly spaced and prevents them from bunching together. The result is uniform cold distribution across the entire 9 by 20 inch treatment area. Can I buy replacement cold packs for this system? Yes. The Model 550 uses 6 by 9 inch D-Packs. You can purchase the D-Pack Single Model 585 as a refill. Keep spare packs in the freezer for continuous rotation during longer therapy sessions. Can the cold packs also be used for heat therapy? Yes. The cold packs can be heated in the microwave for hot therapy. Heat in short cycles of approximately 30 seconds at a time and check between cycles to prevent overheating. Heating instructions are printed directly on the packs. Questions?
