What Our Customers Say about the CastCooler&trade

Danna L. - Peadatric Nurse, Dallas, TX

My son is 12yrs old, this is his first cast. It is a long leg cast. About 1 week in to the 6 weeks of casting, he started to have itching. The CastCooler arrived on the first day he began to really itch. We put it on hoping it would help. He loved it!! big smile..Like a puppy who was having it favorite spot scratched. We are now two weeks in to the cast and I know the CastCooler has made it much better for my son. At this point he may not like the cast but he is not miserable with itching, nor medicated and sleepy from benadryl. By far the best 30 dollars I have EVER spent. I am a pediatric nurse in Dallas. I have already told so many people about this product. It has been wonderful for us. Thank you for your product. I wish it had been available at a local supplier, although it did not take to long to arrive. Danna L.

Carmie L. - RN , UPMC Shadyside, Brackenridge, PA

... I told Dr. Fisher I was anticipating receipt of my CastCooler last week when I was first casted.... and today in fact, at my follow-up appointment, Dr. Fisher asked me if I got the CastCooler and if it worked..... I told him "It's great..I love it....and it's keeping me sane!" Carmie L.

Lisa H. - San Diego, CA

My husband, Dave, ordered this for me after I fractured my radius. I am a active person who goes to the gym almost daily. I use the CastCooler after my workouts & the results have been amazing. Despite my sweaty workouts, I rarely experience itch & after 2 weeks, my cast doesn't even smell. I have shared your product on my Facebook account. When I get my cast removed, I plan on bringing it to show my physician. Best, Lisa H.

James H. - Columbia, MD

We received the CastCooler in yesterday's mail - thanks for the amazingly quick response on getting that to us. Of course, we tried it out immediately, and it works as promised. Our little girl's itchy, sweaty cast became instantly more comfortable, producing smiles instead of complaints. Thanks again for your fast response on our order. James H.

Cheryl B. - San Antonio, TX

I had the opportunity to discuss the CastCooler with my Ortho Doctor. He was impressed with my glowing review. I told him anyone going home with a cast should be advised to use the CastCooler to insure they were provind "the standard of care" which they, as Doctors, are committed to delevier. Cheryl B.

Ron T. - Havre de Grace, MD

First let me say that the CastCooler arrived exactly on time! Then I want you to know that it works just as adverised! It has been truly a life saver for our granddaughter Kyleigh. I am so thankful we found you on the internet and the person whom I spoke to on the phone will never know how helpful he was. Thanks again. Ron T.

Lori B. - Keyser, WV

From the first time we tried it, we were convinced. My 7 year old special needs son is non-verbal. The look on his face when he felt the air through his cast was worth more than words. Apparently it was quite soothing, as he fell asleep while it was on and had the most restful nap he had had since the placement of his spica cast. Since we began using the CastCooler, we have also noticed a significant decrease in the smell of his cast. Being able to circulate fresh air through his cast is indeed a wonderful thing. We cannot thank you enough for creating this product. Lori B.

Kristie M. - Placentia, CA

I got my CastCooler today. I want to thank you ever so much for your remarkable product! I have to tell you that this is the first time I've felt and smelled fully clean in weeks! I had an extensive foot reconstruction surgery in November and have been in a series of foot casts ever since. My final cast has been on for three weeks with one more to go. The stench coming from that cast has caused me to feel uncomfortable and even feel nauseous at times. I'm a psychotherapist in private practice and I was even thinking of taking this week off of work because I was afraid of offending my patients with the horrid smell. The CastCooler dried and cooled the inside of my cast and removed the odor. I needed about a half-an-hour to get everything fully dry. And boy oh boy did the room stink where I was using the vacuum! I just sat there smiling, knowing that horrible smell was being sucked away from my foot. Even though I only have one more week to go wearing my cast, the money I spent, including the extra for next-day shipping, was well worth it. I'm happily getting ready to see my patients today feeling clean and odor-free. Thanks once again for this amazing invention. I only wish I'd known about it in November when I had my surgery. I'll be telling my foot-and-ankle surgeon and his nurses just how wonderful the CastCooler is! Sincerely, Kristie M.

Kelly T. - Kingsport, TN

The Cast Cooler was a life saver for my little girl who broke her arm a week before we left for Disney World. I had purchased a waterproof sock for my daughter to use while swimming and by the fourth day the waterproof sock had busted making my daughter's cast wet, soggy, and some of her Princess signatures to smear, she was upset. I then hooked her up to the Cast Cooler and in a short time her cast was dry and she was able to get more Disney character signatures on her cast. Thank you and your team so much for inventing the Cast Cooler it was a big help not only for my daughter, but me as well. Sincerely, Kelly T.

David S. - Port Washington, NY

I received the CastCooler this weekend and I want to say thank you for such a wonderful product. It truly is a Godsend and delivered as advertised on the promise that it would make a world of difference in dealing with the uncomfortableness that wearing a cast can bring. I am lucky that I only had to go only 1 week without the CastCooler, the remaining 4 weeks I have wearing my cast, which runs from my toes to the bottom of my knee, should be a breeze now that I have the CastCooler to help me out. I want to thank you again and I will be bringing your product with me to my checkup to see if I can spread the word to the orthopedic surgeon and his staff that are treating me. I am going to see if his practice, which consists of 6 other doctors in the practice will want to contact you and your company to purchase these for their recovering patients who need to use casts. This product is unbelievable, if I lived in your area I would want to work for your company's sales force because of the incredible quality and the incredible results that the CastCooler have. I would love to see everyone out there know about this product, it is a life saver!!! Respectfully, David S.

Juidth W. - Atlanta, GA

I started using my CastCooler within a few days of having my ankle cast hoping to avoid the odor and itch that are part of wearing a cast. I'm pleased to report that by using the CastCooler daily my cast has not developed an odor and the itching has been minimal at most. The CastCooler works! The few times I did develop an "itch" I used the CastCooler and the itch was relived in less than a minute. The CastCooler is a fine product and the customer service you provide is outstanding. Best Wishes, Judith W.

Sara P. - Naturopathic Doctor - New Windson, MD

I want to tell you what a fantastic product you have. After having it overnighted it arrived as promised. It worked miracles and I know we would not have been able to live without it. My son calls it "the itch-sucker". I am so very grateful, I have shared the information with my pediatric surgeon at Johns Hopkins. It worked exactly as promised-no one should be without it. Sara P., Board Certified Naturopathic Doctor

Zena - Mother of 10 year old daughter - Knoxville, TN

My 10 year old daughter had surgery on her elbow, which included pins, etc. She was already miserable from the pain; then the itch started. After being up all night for 6 nights (crying because of the itch) I went online and found the CastCooler! I was very hesitant, especially because of the low price..but, I ordered it. I received the CastCooler in 3 days! The first time we used it and I turned on the vacuum cleaner, my daughters eyes lit up and you could actually see the relief in her face!!!! She has had the cast on for 7 weeks and has been very comfortable and we have slept every night since. THANKS TO THE CASTCOOLER!!!!This product is AMAZING! Zena.

Linda D. - Philadelphia, PA

I bought this for my husband when he was put in a leg cast after surgery. He loves it and uses it all the time. He says it really helps to keep his leg cool and dry. It also helps to reduce cast odor, which works for me! I would absolutely recommend this product. Linda D.

Shirley W. - - Vineland, NJ

I just want to tell you how much I love the CastCooler. My 15 year old son had foot reconstruction surgery and was put into a cast right away. On the second day of wearing his cast, it began to get sweaty inside. I searched the internet and came across your product. I am so glad I did. Once we received the CastCooler...Wow! My son's face just brightened up. He said "Mom it feels so cool inside my cast. I feel alot of cool air inside my cast." I just want to say thank you for such an excellent product. Shirley W.

Kelly W. - Grandmother of 21 month old - Longview, TX

Just want you to know - we received the CastCooler. Our grandson, who is 21 months old, broke his femur on Oct. 31, Halloween night. He is in a body cast from under his arms to the bottom of his feet. Prior to getting the CastCooler he had broke out in a terrible rash and was miserable! His parents brought him over to spend the night with us the day we received it. We used it 4 or 5 times during his stay. When his parents came to get him...his rash was totally gone!!!! She is taking your product to see his Orthopedic doctor tomorrow and showing it to him. It is amazing!!!! Thank you sooo much, you have made our lives so much more tolerable during a terrible time!!! Kelly W.

Deana H. - Spica Cast Mom - Auburn, WA

Hello! Just wanted to say thanks for the BEST PRODUCT EVER MADE ! We have a three yr old in a spica cast and I must tell you that you literally SAVED THE DAY ! SEVERAL TIMES ! Can't thank you enough ! I even took the brochure to our Dr. appoinment and they are also excited about your product. Thanks so much! Deana H.

Cathy A. - Mother of 4 year old - Warrenville, IL

My 4yr old son broke the growth plate in his foot over Memorial Day weekend. After a full leg cast from toe to hip was put on him, he became miserable at night. The itching either kept him awake and even at times woke him up out of a sound sleep. Out of sheer desperation (at 3am after my son had been up since 1:30am) I googled "itchy casts" and came across your website. I immediately ordered it. It arrived 3 days later and I have to say that it has been a true life saver for my son and our entire family. When ever he gets hot or itchy inside his cast he just scoots over to the vacuum cleaner (which is now plugged into the wall all the time) and he lays down next to it, waiting for us to come over and cool his leg. We do it before he goes to bed and he sleeps the entire night. What a wonderful thing the CastCooler is. Thank you. Sincerely, Cathy A.

Dave E. - Painted Post, NY - Children's Hospital Nurse

All those spots that you have longed to scratch, that feel wet and mushy, begin to feel very cool as the air-conditioning effect of the evaporation of moisture begins. You know you have dried it when the coolness stops. This only takes 5 or 6 minutes, maybe less. I was pretty skeptical when I ordered it because I didn't know if it would draw air through the wall of the cast...but IT WORKS! It feels great. I wish I had gotten it sooner in my recovery. Dave, Children's Hospital Nurse - Dave E.

Gena Y.- Lake Worth, FL

I just received my CastCooler yesterday and used it for the first time today. All I can say is WOW! This is the best feeling since being in a cast. Than you so much for creating it. Life won't be so uncomfortable now. Gena Y.

Jennette - Missouri City, TX

When my 6 year old daughter broke her arm, I knew it was extremely painful when SHE told ME that it was time to go to the hospital. In the same way, I knew that the CastCooler was working and making her "itchies" feel better when I put it on, attached the vacuum and she said "OH YEAH" with a big smile on her face. This product is great and will definitely get us through our last 2 cast weeks! Thank you!!!

Grandma Pam - Hammond, IN

I have received the CastCooler and used it on my grandson's Spica cast. He liked it, he would say," feels good grandma". Also with the Spica cast I was able to feel the air at opening of cast. Thank you for answering my questions and I hope that others who need some relieve from there casts will enjoy the "CastCooler" as much as my 2 yr old grandson. Sincerely, a Thankful Grandma Pam

Larry J. - Bozeman, MT

Thanks I received you product and it's working great. My 5 year old loves the relief it's giving him from his broken leg, great product. Larry J.

Mike S. - Indianapolis, IN

"I recently purchased your CastCooler for my 3 year old son Jack, who is in a Spica cast. On February 17th, Jack was running with friends in the gym of his pre-school when he tripped on the boots he was wearing and suffered a spiral fracture to his left femur. The itching started on the 3rd day after the cast was put on, and got so bad that it would wake him up from a deep sleep and would keep him up for hours. In searching for something, anything to provide him with some relief, I came across your web site... I am here to tell you that your product absolutely works and has made a very difficult situation much more manageable. I have attached a couple of photos of Jack using his beloved CastCooler and his 2 "assistants" (twin sister and older sister) helping him. Jack still has a long road ahead of him until he gets his cast off, but with the benefits of the CastCooler, the next 3 weeks will be a snap! Mike S.

Leigh Ann L. - Seabrook, TX

I just wanted to tell you the CastCooler is awesome. I have a broken leg and live in Seabrook, Texas - hot and humid. After I use the CastCooler on various spots on my leg - it makes me feel like my leg has had a bath. It feels so much better!!! Thanks for a great product! Leigh Ann L.

Patrick B., Shreveport, LA

My 2 year old son broke his right femur on March 7th. He fell down the stairs to our fort. After the third day he was extremely red and itchy. I was blowing his cast with a leaf blower to keep him dry. His sisters enjoyed watching it but he wasn't a "big fan". I was browsing the internet and happened to come across the CastCooler, Thank God. I was wondering if it would work and thought It's worth a try. The night before it arrived he had his worst night. He was up almost all night. He is also in diapers which makes it an extra challenge to keep his cast dry. The day we got CastCooler we used it twice on him and he slept through the night waking up once. I was relieved but skeptical waiting for the next night. The next night he didn't wake up at all. I love great inventions and this works well. UPDATE: Just wanted to give you an update about my son Jonathan. He got his cast off Friday April, 17th. The nurse was cutting off his cast and said here comes the stink. When she removed the cast there was no stink or raw spots at all. This is a great product that works. I told the doctor about it and left her with our CastCooler. She was interested and going to order more. Just wanted to let you know, Thanks and God Bless, Patrick B. - Shreveport, LA

Traci K. - Marion, OH

The CastCooler worked great! Traci K.

Hugh D. - Denver, CO

Got the CastCooler yesterday and it could not have come at a better time as I accidentally soaked my cast in the shower! By the time I had it hooked up, it took several 10-15 min sessions to completely dry it out. Hugh D. - Denver, CO

Shane J. Ryan's Dad - Dublin, GA

My son's name is Ryan, he is 19 months old. He was playing at daycare, climbing up a swing, and he fell and broke his left femur bone. It was a spiral fracture, so he had to have closed reduction surgery to repair the bone, he was put in his Spica Cast on Wednesday June 17th. By the time we got home, which was on Friday the 19th, the inner lining of the cast was already soaked. We weren't given very good instructions on how to care for the cast, and his diaper changes. We were told to use #1 diapers inside the cast, well those were way too small! I became very concerned about it, and a little scared actually. I began searching the internet for any answers to the problem. That's when I found out about the CastCooler. Sceptacle or not, I was going to try anything and everything, so I ordered without hesitation. I ordered the CastCooler that Friday, and it arrived the following Monday, I was so happy, I couldn't believe it was delivered that quickly. As soon as I got in, I set the vacuum cleaner up, and wrapped the CastCooler around the leg that was wet, when I turned it on, he look so relaxed, it seemed like he was getting a massage. You could feel the air being drawn in under the cast, and he was enjoying it so much. within about 10 minutes the cast was completely cool, and the smell wasn't near as bad. I felt so much better knowing that his cast wasn't wet anymore. Thank you very much for the comfort my son has received. Shane J. - Dublin, GA

Nina G. - El Dorado, AR - beach kids mom

My son arrived home from his vacation and we finally got a chance to try the CastCooler. While on vacation, he had gotten his cast a bit wet on the beach, but when we used the CastCooler, it seemed to have dried it out. He stated it definitely made the cast feel cooler. Since he presently spends most of his time indoors, we haven't had to use it every day, but when we do use it, it makes wearing the cast more bearable. He doesn't appear to have the itching and/or stinking problems yet, but he's only been in it for two weeks. (I'm optimistic we won't have these problems with the CastCooler!). After using it, I noticed bits of sand stuck to the surface (from the beach no less) -- which were removed from the cast during the vacuuming process. A simply wiping with a clean, damp cloth cleaned the surface and it's ready to go again! So far, I'm very pleased I purchased this product and glad it was so affordable! Thanks Nina G

Andrew D. - Orthopedic Specialists of Alabama

The CastCooler works very well. The itching is completely gone, and it feels like I dipped my foot in water. Thank you for the excellent sample. We'll discuss this product with OSA http://www.osadoctors.com/ on our next doctor visit, and show them how it works! My itching is gone, and the lining does indeed feel cool. Andrew D.

Veronica L. - Palm Bay, FL - Mom of 4 year old son

The CastCooler is for my 4 year old son. We live in Florida so the humidity is always high. We got the product on Saturday (which was very fast) and he loves it. It is really easy to use...he loves it! It was really dirty after the first use, which makes me feel better, because all that dirt was in his cast. And he says it tickles and feels cool. I am glad I bought it. After he is outside playing, he asks to use it. And he doesn't complain about the itching anymore!!! It was breaking my heart that I couldn't relieve his pain/discomfort. This product is a great idea. I am definitely telling his doctor, and anyone with a cast on about it!!! Veronica L.

Celene C. - Sandusky, OH - Mom

The CastCooler work great as promised. My son feels better and his skin has improved emensely (sic) since we started using the CastCooler. I will recommend the CastCooler to everyone I can including the Doctor's office. Celene C.

The CastCooler is Patented

The United States Patent and Trademark Office has awarded another US Patent #7,497,838 in addition to US Patent #7,229,425 for the CastCooler, a device used in conjunction with an orthopedic cast to remove moisture from the lining of the cast.

Odor and Itch - The CastCooler introduces new patient benefits by addressing the two long-standing issues associated with cast wearing - odor and itch. The root cause of these problems is moisture, typically from perspiration, which remains trapped in the lining of the cast. As bacterium grow in the continually moist cast lining, odor and itch result. Until now, there was no way to effectively remove this moisture.

The CastCooler freshens the cast wearing experience by removing moisture from the cast lining without touching the patient. This reduces and relieves both odor and itch. Further, the CastCooler requires no changes to the cast application process or materials. The CastCooler is designed to be used with all breathable (fiberglass) orthopedic casts.
