This is the 2024 version of the AICE LITE. It's a neck cooler that's not only good for cooling but also for warming, making it useful in winter. In fact, I used it more in the winter. It was the best when used under a scarf for warmth. There are no noticeable scratches or stains, so I think you can use it comfortably. Please consider it. ✱ There are no outer box or instruction manual included. Only the main unit will be delivered, so please be aware of this.
