How to prepare for shoulder replacement surgery?

What ice machine would everyone suggest as being the best without spending a fortune. My insurance doesnt pay for these & was told medical supply stores no longer rent them. Amazon is confusing about sizes. I am 5'2" 140 lbs with short arms and I dont want to order one too big. Any suggestions on buying the right one?

Just buy one on Amazon the shoulder pad will fit as it has Velcro and wraps all around your torso.
make sure to get one that plugs in the wall and has a good size container for ice and water
Do not get gravity assisted but one that circulates by plugging in the wall
It was my ultimate pain relief narcotics didn’t help at all just took one at night to help sleep for about 5 days then quit as they really did not help me
You will be in a sling too which also takes up space they are not that expensive you can get them for the high end about $230 or so.
