Yes, I had two of them (gave one to the inlaws) and I loan it out all the time. But they are awesome.
This thread reminds me of that scene in "Everybody Loves Raymond" where all the old guys are sitting around in the sauna, and one will describe some ache or pain in his body, and another old guy will respond "Yeah, I got that." Over and over.
I thought the surgically hardened them. I was at the H&H match, and on kurtm’s squad, 10-12 years ago when he shot after having back surgery the week before.... I’m still in disbelief.
My mother used one of those machines after a full knee replacement. She recommends it. As does my aunt who had a full hip replacement in her early 50’s.
I have had both knees replaced . The first one without the use of the machine and the second one with the use of it and would recommend it
I had a neat unit after my first shoulder surgery in '13, self contained cold and compression, it was really nice.
Second surgery in '16 I got the retrofitted cooler that required ice, no compression, it worked, but was a PITA.

I had a total arthroplasty of the shoulder that failed and now my right knee is painful so I seen an Orthopod and they gave me a shot of Lidocaine and something else and it was a of great benefit...for a week. Now it is beginning to hurt like it did before the injection. X-ray reveals minimal narrowing of the joint but I can't figure out where the pain is or why-I know where it's the why. It's the price of getting older I reckon. I've known some guys who have died in great health and far younger...
I loved mine but it leaked.
I had it inside a big bucket to catch the water. It leaked around the seal on the lid. I tried everything but screwing it down. Shims, tape, bricks, nothing worked. I think it was because the hose was kinked and the pressure pushed it out the seal.
