I ordered 2 of these. One was the no-sweat, which is what I wanted, the other was vinyl covered but I kept it. The frozen size is roughly 6x7 and they freeze hard. They are not soft gel, if that is what you are looking for. For those that complain about the no-sweat cover getting dirty, I placed each one in a zip-lock bag prior to freezing, and laid it flat on the freezer shelf. I have used these for years and the stay frozen for a long time. I have a large >32 ounce (7 x 10”) that was shipped with medications years ago and I still use it. I wish Amazon would sell the larger size.No-Sweat Nordic Ice doesn't collect the condensation like the plastic baglike other Nordic Ice.16 oz6 inches by 7 inches(note photo of shiny Nordic Ice 16 oz and 8 oz for comparison)However, the drawback is that the "No-Sweat" Nordic Ices still sweat, you just don't feel the dripping wetness because of the cloth material on the outside of their sealed plastic bags. Furthermore, the drawback is that the wet material will stick to things in your freezer. Then you either have to melt them both or pry them apart and damage the cloth-like material on the outside of the Nordic Ice.So some of my "no sweat" Nordic Ices i have in zip lock bags to keep them from freezing to bottles and things i use to shape them before i use them to ice my shoulder or knee.It isn't fancy but I love this bc it doesn't get my bed or recliner all wet.I bought one of the "normal" Nordic Ice packs and I loved it. I went to order another but it was now out of stock, so I got this. I was disappointed.The only difference between the two is that this one has a cloth covering to it, to absorb the perspiration. This, however, can cause a problem when you put the ice pack back in the freezer - now that wet cloth covering is going to freeze stuck to whatever is touching it in the freezer.I will stick to buying the normal ice packs without the cloth covering.Excluding that, the ice packs work great. I am pleased with how cold they get and how long they last. I just found the cloth covering to not work how I'd like.Really happy with these. The no sweat version lasts much longer than the regular. We keep them in individual freezer zip lock bags otherwise they stick to each other. Also convenient for if they pop as it contains the gel.They stay frozen all day in the heat and keeps the kid's foods cold. Fits great under a bentgo box.We have about 6 of these. Highly recommend!These ice packs stay frozen solid in the hottest weather plus do not take up allot of space in the cooler. Keeps my water bottles and lunches chilled and keeps frozen items solid. I highly recommend Nordic Ice No-Sweat reusable gel packs.Love the no-sweat feature. Take it to work in my lunchbag everyday, and 8 hours later it is still frozen.exactly as described, used them to send food across country, contents were still cold after 3 days.
