Does the gel pack get hard like ice or is it flexible?

They were flexible, but the best ice pack I used after eyelid surgery was a baggie of frozen peas. They would contour immediately.

It is great.. Never turns hard....always flexible... I used them after eye lid surgery.

It gets pretty hard but if you let it sit out a bit it gets slightly flexible

I don't think it's actually a gel it is a fairly firm cushion. My husband uses extensively it due to an arthritic hip and knee. It gives firm support without being hard and gives a little height to chairs making the lower ones slightly easier to get in and out of for him.

No it will freeze like any hose if there is water in it. It definitely stays flexible but ices up in the cold.

It is flexible right out of the freezer. I just checked mine thats been in there for weeks without use. Hope this helps.

It is a little flexable but the lip is firm. Wish it was more rubber instead of plastic.

No, not really hard, just somewhat stiff. It is not intended for keeping food in a cooler; it is intended for cold therapy. I suggest you look for a different kind of ice pack that is intended for coolers.

Yes. It is still very flexible if something hits it. It is more durable than many of the cheaper ones on the market that I have used. My zipper pull broke the first week on the job, but a paper clip works as a substitute. In my case, I have since gone back to using a rigid plastic cooler that doesn't leak water.

The silicone sleeve is very flexible. You just bend it till they pop out, or you could run it upside down under hot running water for a minute. It is the rage with mixologists because the cubes take so long to melt in drinks! We have several.

It's pretty flexible. Not stiff at all. You have a great idea there. Good luck! Get a patent...sell it on SHARK TANK...and make lots of money!!!

You should always have a thin layer of something between cold and your skin,remember this gel pack is ice cold!

Freeze. They feel like they are gel filled but the freeze hard. Like any ice pack you would get with a small cooler.

They are soft, but I would describe them as flexible. They are made of silicone so they are very durable.

Yes it can. It will not hold heat or cold as well as other gel packs will, but you can't really burn or hurt yourself. For young people with good circulation, they could probably tolerate a bit more of a termperature difference. That said, I'm young and I love it.

Hi! This gel pack stays cold for quite a while, and even once the very cold feeling of it fades, it is still cold enough to keep help an aching or injured knee.

They are hard/brittle. They do have a little give to them when I squeeze hard, but definitely wouldn't consider them flexible. We haven't broken any of them & have had them for about a year though.

1st) It does not get cold like ice or the gel cold packs. So if you have tendonitis or a swollen ankle it will not work. 2) It is cold for about 7 minutes and cool/cold for about 12 minutes after that.
