Wow what a great product I knew it would help my muscle recovery. I never realized how much it would help me Mentally it is like putting armor on after jumping in in the morning.

I bought two cheap ice baths that got my feet wet, but the Ice Barrel 500 is on a whole other level that exceeded my expectations. This product blows me away.

The IB500 has greatly exceeded my expectations. I live in Florida, so being able to keep the water cold without over working my chiller was a very large concern of mine.

I have had my 500 up and running for just a month now (haven’t missed a morning plunge yet!) and I couldn’t be happier. Just a truly outstanding piece of craftsmanship!
