I actually bought a unit on Amazon. I think it was less than $200. I also picked up various pads to fit parts that often need cold therapy. The pocket for the shoulder actually works well on your head, FWIW.

The rental unit I took home from surgery allowed me to sleep in my recliner, and I took nothing but Aleve after 2 days.
