@steve161 If the OP can find it and afford a rental, the NICE machine avoids all of this. It acts like a refrigerator to cool the water so one never has to add or remove ice. My surgeon provided me with a two rental of one six years ago after my left hip replacement and it was terrific.
More recently, almost exactly a year ago, I had my right knee replaced. This time my surgeon provided me with a two week rental of the Game Ready machine. It worked equally well but did require ice.
Getting a NICE machine for recovery is like renting a Rolls Royce to drive around.

@steveinarizona as you already know I'm getting my right hip on December 28th. How long did you rent the machine for the hip? It seems very pricey but also very convenient.

@steveinarizona Funny, Steve, I just posted the same to a member about to have shoulder replacement! I had to pay for mine, and it was worth every penny.
