How necessary is it to purchase extra gel packs with the initial order?

If 2 gel packs is good, 4 is better. Especially if you're having a bad day.

I've always been fine using one set. I use occasionally for headaches. But my sister bought an extra set because she was going to have oral surgery and wanted an extra set freezing so she could ice longer and more often for a few days .

I did not purchase any extra and have not needed to. This item was for my mother who uses it frequently for the cold value and she loves it.

I bought extra ones from the store for a $1. The ones that come with it are great, but I didn't want to spend the extra $15 for the extra set. Having extra helps you keep two in the freezer in case you need cold therapy and leave the others thawed for hot therapy. So you do need two sets. But you can get extras at a place like Target, different brand, that will fit in the cubby hole, for a lot less. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT! It's helped me so much during jaw, face and dental pain.

No unfortunately you would have to purchase the entire item when ordering from Ebrands.

A small supply of free pods came with my podmaker, but I ordered the large box of pods at the same time as the maker. So, yes, you have to eventually buy pods,but they are very reasonable in price. I'd suggest ordering at the sametime as ordering the podmaker and get it over with.

Yes. I advise ordering extras when you buy the gripons but the manufacturers website gives you a way to order @ any time

Just make your first order. If it's your first time, they automatically send the freebie along with. No need to do anything different on the website.

No. Most products now come with the software already pre-loaded. Just plug it in, and all will install. Just don't make the same mistake as I did with my first one and try to fill it to capacity. I filled it to the point that there were only a few kbs remaining, and it stopped working. And although it's automatically insured the first year, they charge you an arm and a leg to retrieve your data. (Plus, it's been months and I still haven't gotten my return label from them for the checkup.)

No. Some deliveries were packed with those plastic gel bags that can be frozen, and some deliveries-from the same seller-we're not. The gel packs were cool to the touch in packages having them. The packages were never left in the sun when delivered to my residence.

Yes you should purchase the extras . The consumable's will (just like a shoelace) fail at the most unopurtun moment.

Yes. U can also purchase extra refills when u buy it at the same time online. Very happy.

It depends on who you buy it from. The people I have order from it was in the original package.

When you open the zippered bag and liner bag, there will be a gelling agent inside already. This is sufficient for average use, assuming have liquid and half solid waste ends up in the bag. It is helpful to purchase a separate container of bio-gel, and just add it, a teaspoon at a time, as the bag fills up with waste, especially if you are expecting more liquid waste than solid. It is NOT necessary to buy the extra, but from experience, it is helpful when there is more liquid waste than solid waste being created. Ours are used at festivals and for 4+ day camping trips. We purchased a bio-gel and a powdered deodorizer (add 1 scoop at beginning if you choose to use this as well) along with our first order of bags, and are still using up the extra bio-gel three years later. You really only add extra if it has stopped gelling, and it takes awhile for that to happen. At that point, just add the extra teaspoon of bio-gel, and, well, keep going! Just keep an eye on the bag and change it as recommended. We swear by these bags, and have NEVER had a leak, or any issues.

Yes. These are just the gels. You need to buy the actual system to use the gels with.

Unfortunately, Melinda, I can't answer that. However, I can tell you that questions directed at customer care are responded to quickly and efficiently. I've talked to them about a couple of things (none of them bad) and received a response to my query right away. And, really, it's not all that expensive to buy another set of four to have some extras around. I find these things to be tremendously useful so I wouldn't mind having more. But that's probably just me. Good luck with the question. As I said, I think your best bet is to contact the Click 'N Dig customer care.

No, you don't have it purchase anything separately; it comes with everything you need. Have fun!

if you purchase multiple kits, you should only get charged once for shipping, unless they are going to different recipients. Make sure you are not using one click shipping, this will allow you to order multiples more easily.

You get one. I paid about $170 at the time. The gell sometimes lasts less than 75 minutes but buy it in 24 packs to save.

You should communicate with the vender(s) for that answer, i could not provide you with an answer to product you might purchase.My own purchase had plenty of time before the pull-date.
