Stay-On Large Vinyl Electric Heating Pad for Neck and Shoulders and Back Without Auto-Off, Low & High Heat Levels, Waterproof Hot Heat Pad with Washable Cover (12”x24”, 1-Pack)

I wanted a SIMPLE, NO FRILLS heating pad for my back. This does exactly that. My wife made me a slip cover for my office chair with a pocket to put this in which is awesome for sore back and for getting warm on those cold days. Simple HI-LO-OFF, so you are totally in control of the heat. Granted, you have to be watchful of leaving it on, but for what it is and what it does, totally worth it.

Works as described, gets nice and hot, no auto shut-off timers. Can even get a bit too hot on the highest setting which is waaay better than the alternative, so no complaints here. Thank you for a fine product at a fair price. Cheers.

This heating pad is awesome. It’s perfect for those of us who do not want the heat to shut off automatically after only 2 hrs. I have purchased both the large and the small heating pads and have been very happy with them. So far they have continued to work day after day without any problems. I mainly use them to keep our outdoor cats warm and comfortable during the cold winter months and these work great. I also have a few that I keep on hand for myself and or family who needs to use them. I will say, for anyone using these heating pads, please remember to use the lowest settings as too much heat can harm them. I. About to order more just to have on hand

This takes a while to heat up (3-5 min.), but gets plenty warm if you intend on keeping it on for 20-30 min. It seems to get TOO hot in a couple of places, so I cover it with a thin blanket (a sheet is NOT enough). For that reason, it seems a little dicey to charge $25 for it. At $18 when I purchased it, it seemed somewhat reasonable. It has 2 settings: - Low (22W) - High (45W) It will never turn off by itself - even if you forget it ALL DAY! I like that it stays on so I can use a separate timer to control it throughout the night. It can come on to warm the foot of the bed, or the couch, or however you use it, then turn off at set times. But that requires a separate timer you set up yourself, if you don't want to have to remember to turn this off.

This is exactly what I was hoping for. Perfect size, heats up quickly, comfortable to use and not too thick or bulky. It's not cumbersome at all. It is straight ON / OFF, no auto shut off, and that was what I've been searching for. Leaving it on low setting it can be used for long period of time and not burn you or be too hot. Luckily I haven't had to actually use for pain "yet" but I did try it for review purposes. Really is a perfect heating pad that's going to do just what I wanted it for. And, I feel it was very reasonably priced.

It works too well. It is way too hot and there’s only two settings. I sleep with a heating pad, but I’ve had to put in three towels to be able to tolerate the heat.

I bought this heating pad to help with a flare up in lower back pain. It gets HOT! One side is warm (with the foam insert), the other side is hot (without foam insert on this side). I like being able to choose which side I want to use based on how warm I want the heat to be. I’ve been using it for a couple of weeks now and it noticeably helps to ease my tight muscles in lower back. If you read about heat therapy for back pain, it’s actually really good for breaking the pain and tightness cycle in non-acute injuries (you don’t want to use heat immediately after an injury on the first 2-3 days). Obviously consult with your physician for personalized recommendations. But for me, this has become a solid part of my back pain relief regimen. The size is great because it’s not too small and not too big, perfect for targeting a lot of heat to go to a small to moderate sized area. So far the quality seems good, still works great 2 weeks in. You absolutely cannot beat the price. I’ve already gotten $15 of use out of it in 2 weeks, so if it did break, I wouldn’t even be mad for how low the price is. I’m going to order a second one to keep at my work. No strange smell. There also isn’t a timer, it stays on, and the heat is strong and consistent on the high setting. The directions do say you’re not supposed to lay on it, but I do and haven’t had any problems. I just wouldn’t fall asleep with it on. Overall, a fantastic buy.

Love this heating pad. The two heat settings are perfect, and it actually stays hot the whole time — not like others that cool off quickly. Great for cramps, sore muscles, or just staying warm. The quality feels solid, and the no auto-off feature is a big plus.
