 The only personal, portable, body cooler that really worksMay 12, 2011
By ghost of a red rose
"ghost of a red rose"
It was really hot in Paris when we were there in August. I'm utterly certain that I never would have made it through the Versailles Palace tour still on my feet (over 100°, no A/C, airless stuffy old rooms, literally packed in elbow-to-elbow with other hot sweaty/sticky bodies) without this special aid. It is a battery-operated wand that instantly becomes ice-cold when you turn it on, and I could rub it over my face, neck, wrists, etc. It was a real life-saver. Well, a consciousness-saver, anyway. I came dangerously close to fainting, and this device saved me. (Dangerous not because fainting would be life-threatening, but because I would have missed my once-in-a-lifetime tour, which would be worse, right?)
Actually, as a medical student, I know that heatstroke really is life-threatening and that this device is capable of lowering body temperature enough to save a life if consistently applied over various areas of an overheated person's body.
I used it constantly throughout the entire trip, and I don't know what I would have done without it. I have been extremely sensitive to heat all my life (in spite of always having lived in Phoenix AZ!) and faint when I become overheated. So this product is truly a godsend. I have never found anything else that works nearly so well and is also portable - and I've tried everything, including various gadgets and vests which cost up to $200. At 1/100th of the price, this is far better.
I used it so much I wore out the motor and am ordering a new one (in fact, I'm ordering 2 just in case I have difficulty finding another when I wear the new one out.) Believe me, it got plenty of very heavy usage before the motor gave out. I definitely got my money's worth. Please, please don't ever stop making these!
My old one didn't have the heating feature, but I am not interested in that and will probably never use it. The UB-Kool is well worth the price for the cooling feature alone.
(BTW, I have no affiliation with any company which sells or manufactures this product, nor do I receive any compensation for reviewing it. My rave review is the sincere opinion of a highly satisfied ordinary customer.)

Works pretty wellJan 30, 2010

This little guy works pretty well. The battery door is a little fragile so hopefully it doesn't break.

 My thoughtsJun 16, 2011
By Garden Walk
"WMW"
I thought this item would transmit the heat/cooling by air flow, rather than by actual contact. That is the primary feature i was looking for - cool air blower. The discharge air from this devise is the hot air exhaust from the cooler.

UB Kool reviewMay 25, 2010
By A. Clemente
Works pretty good. I still have the original spot cooler with the blue ball but it didn't have the heating feature so I couldn't resist getting the combined heating/cooling model. Very good-uses batteries up like crazy but I still thing it's worth it!

not as depicted and not effectiveAug 06, 2011
By wburg1999
"wburg1999"
the main photos are inaccurate. the device is on a hinge, so it is not one piece. it feels extremely cheap and has poor design quality. the battery door is poorly designed and looks like it will break very soon. to top it all off, the cooling disc, which does become cool, is extremely small, so there is little overall cooling, as i discovered on the subway platform yesterday. i will try to return if i don't end up losing too much on it in the end
