Review on Cool Off with OccuNomix MiraCool Cooling Towel in Vibrant Orange by Kenneth Wood

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Polyvinyl acetal is used as PVA - avoid!

Incorrect PVA used, this product contains Polyvinyl Acetal/Acetate (PVA) and NOT Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA). Nowhere in the listing was written which PVA, the difference is big; Polyvinyl acetal has been classified as toxic or harmful on Environment Canada's Internal Substances List and is hazardous due to arsenic and heavy metal contamination. I don't want that on my skin! In addition, the item has been packaged in a ziplock bag rather than a storage case as shown in the picture for this product. After all, I don't want to endorse such a Chinese-made product. Indeed, companies should be responsible for stating where their products are manufactured so that consumers can be informed before they buy. I will promptly return this item.

Pros
  • Medical Supplies and Equipment
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
