I am a pharmacist and suffer with lower back pain from standing all day. Thermotech is the best heating pad on the market (and believe me, I've tried many). The secret to real pain relief is MOIST heat. Cheap heating pads don't get hot enough and you have to keep rewetting a sponge inside the cover to get moist heat. This heating pad's cover uses the humidity in the in the air to provide moisture. Yes, it really works! I like the four temperature settings too depending on the type of clothing I'm wearing. Thermotech also makes this heating pad in a version for your upper back and shoulders that I also love. I started to order this heating pad from my drug supplier but decided to check Overstock first because they are rather expensive. I was shocked to find Overstock's price was half of what I could order it for. I'm so glad I checked. This is the only heating pad I recommend to my customers. You won't be disappointed.
Ten years ago, I was given a smaller version of this heating pad and my puppy chewed through the cord and I thought I could never replace it! Finding the same heating pad with the convienent removable flannel cover was a nice surprise. I wasted no time ordering it and then ordered one for my nieghbor who was visting and saw mine. She wanted one too! The length of the heating pad gives me relief from the end of my spine to my shoulders and neck. I use it almost every day for a past injury. I also use it to warm up my muscles and relax on a cool night. I love this heating pad and the price is very affordable, worth every penny if you have aches and pains!
I used this heating pad for the first time today. It was great....loved the settings so that you can control the temperature and the time it is on. Heats up quickly and beeps to let you know when it is turning itself off. Also the long electric cord is a plus. Thanks Overstock!!
Excellent product. Large enough to completely cover shoulder. Or wrap a hamstring. Four separate temperature settings; 113, 130, 150, 166. 15 minute increments on the timer (up to one hour). Velcro strap is nice for holding the pad in place. Removable cover is nice and hasn't 'pilled'.
I use this pad on areas where Fibromyalgia is worse. Moisture heating pad is so comforting. It is priceless to me. When in really severe pain the weight of pad is perfect & molds to the areas needing heat the most. I will probably buy another as a gift. I like the timer settings and the temperature settings. Wonderful, wonderful home therapy. I have looked for years for a moisture heating pad like this one & finally found it here on Overstock. Thanks for fast shipping.
Would recommed this product to any one. As a auto shut off which is one of the things I like about it. It brings moist heat from the air which is good for your back.
Nice features like auto shut-off. My husband has lots of back and knee problems. It is a staple in our living area!
I love this heating pad! It's large and made very well. It does get quite hot. I use the lowest heat setting and it's just right. I highly recommend this heating pad.
I ordered 2 of these heating pads after trying every heating pad I thought was known to mankind (at least on the local retail level). They are more expensive than most heating pads one can find in retail stores but they ARE worth it!. I will say the electronic aspect of these heating pads are not high quality and I actually had to return the first two I ordered because they just would not turn on. The cover (once washed) leaves lint on anything it touches afterwards. My advice is don't wash it. Keep it the way it came as long as possible because once washed you lose that soft velvety touch to the material. Customer service at overstock is AWESOME!!! They immediately took care of my situation without any of the normal jumping through hoops one has to play. The second pair worked right away and I am still enjoying comforting heat. I highly recommend these heating pads unless and until they come up with higher quality electronic portion of the product.
this heating pad is wonderful! at first i thought it was a bit heavy but after using it i noticed how it stays in place and worked so well to help relieve the pain in my lower back. This has really helped get me to sleep at night. It was like a miracle for the pain!
