Gel Cooling Pad- Large (14 1/2" x 21")

I ordered this cooling pad to take with me on a camping trip, but it is MUCH too heavy to lug around. Used at home, I found it to be pleasantly cool... for 10 minutes. I timed it. After 10 minutes it had absorbed my body heat and started radiating it back. So rather than simply having to flip my pillow over to the cool side, I had to wake up enough to remove it from my pillowcase, let it cool off for several minutes, flip it over and reinsert it into the pillowcase. Flipping my pillow is easier & I can do it without having to come fully awake. Chilling it in the refrigerator makes it work a little better, but not for much longer. Also, there is no way to keep it from sliding around in the pillowcase, so it ends up bunched up at the bottom. Unfortunately I threw out the packaging ot I would return it. Oh well. It seemed like a good idea but has been a disappointment.

We use it for our kids on really hot nights to help them get to sleep. Allergies make it impossible for us to open windows and the air conditioner is expensive and not very effective upstairs. I bought one cooling pad for my husband to see if it would work and it did so we bought 3 more now each family member has one. The down side to it is once it warms up, it takes quite a while for it to be able to cool again but generally my kids are asleep before it gets warm and that is all that matters to me.

I've had a Chillow for over a year and have found it to hold the coolness for quite some time. It cracked along the edge, recently, and my husband patched it. A few months later, it cracked in a different spot and quite a bit of water leaked onto our mattress cover and sheets, so I decided it was time for something new. So I ordered gel cooling pad, thinking I was saving ten dollars. When it arrived I was quite disappointed. The vinyl pad is divided into eight sections and each section contains gel. It is so thin that I know it will heat up in no time. It might be possible to cool it down in the fridge every day, but I don't want to be bothered. I always just left the Chillow in my bed and it was cool by nightfall. It was big and I could put a couple of cups of water in it when it became too thin to keep me cool. I am returning this Gel Cooling Pad and ordering a Chillow, instead. This time I will try using waterbed conditioner when I fill it with water. Hopefully, that will give it a longer life.

It's ok but does not stay cool for long and then you are sleeping on a hot plastic mess which is not pleasant. it is also very heavy. Maybe could be used as a chair pad if you get up and down alot?? Dunno, as it takes a long time to get cool again. Not the answer I was looking for.

I may just decide to freeze it anyway since it is useless the way it is and hope for the best for at least a few uses. Weighs to much to send it back for a refund.

I bought 4 of these....2 for me and 2 for a friend. We both suffer from diabetic neuropathy which makes our feet feel REALLY HOT. These gel pads are a terrific help in relieving the pain we get in our feet. Very cooling to our burning feet. Highly recommended for ANYONE suffering from nerve pain that causes feet to be or feel HOT.
