Sunbeam Standard Size Heating Pad, 12"x 15", For Back, Neck, Shoulder, and Period Cramp Pain Relief, 3 Heat Settings, Compact Storage Solution, Auto Shut-Off, Machine-Washable, Gifts For Mom & Wife, FSA/HSA Eligible, Grey

This heating pad is something I should definitely write a review about. I'm on my third heated blanket in 5 years and I can't seem to find a good quality one, no matter how much I spend (I'm not getting the super cheap ones). But this heating pad, I purchased 3 of them in Dec 2021 (it's now Mar 2025), and I have had consistently excellent performance from them. The heat is always nice and hot (if I have it on the high setting), and it sustains the heat. The outer cover comes off easily and it can be washed. The pad itself is very good quality, it can easily survive being bent, crumpled, and doesn't affect the heating elements inside. I use this for my office desk, and I appreciate the long cable and the placement of the control switch. Sometimes (a lot of times) I accidentally run over the cable on the ground with my chair, and it does not affect the cable at all. I'm assuming there have been no changes since I purchased this in 2021, but I would very much buy it again. Very excellent product!!

Very good heating pad three heatingevels helps my back n knee as I ordered for control l very worth the money works great like the color would definitely buy again

Works great. Turns off after a good amount of time. Simple to use . Used for my lower , middle and upper back . Each separate times

Nice and sturdy. Provides an even heat. Only thing I noticed that could use improvement is the heat settings could be calibrated better. Low is so low you can't tell it's on, Medium is just OK, and High is too hot. I've been using Medium mostly, and then High intermittently for a few minutes. Otherwise, works well.

I have used this heavily for a hip injury that otherwise would keep me up in pain all night and also for after my laparoscopic abdominal surgery. I have hardly taken any pain meds as a result.My only caution is that there is no timed heat shutoff like most heating pads and so you can damage your skin if you leave it on too long on high with blankets and everything over it. Honestly, I did that many times and only one time was my skin blotchy red and then I stopped doing that and went to TENS unit after the redness went away.I do recommend this for people who can be careful about how long they use it and how high they set it. I would be cautious about using it for children, elderly, or anyone who might need supervision or who might have more fragile skin. It's not hotter than other heating pads, but it doesn't turn off by itself and covers a large area.I will say that it does get less hot after a while, and I don't know why, but occasionally I did wake up with it being too hot, never extremely hot, but I just did the unthinkable and had it under layers of blankets against the cold and that was not advisable. They say doing that with any electric heating pad could start a fire. I will tell you that I've accidentally left it on all day and used it all night without any fire issues, but don't take that for granted.For use during waking hours without piling blankets on so it holds too much heat, I recommend it for people with normal condition skin for warming large areas.I have to also say that it's great to use if the room is cold and your bed is cold and you just want to be warm. Just make sure you turn it off before you go to sleep. It was a good deal when I bought it.

Works heats up good and and just the right size

This heating pad is the absolute best! It warms consistently and continuously. I have really cold feet and use it over night while I sleep. It does not have an auto shutoff and that makes me continue to buy this pad over others that shut off after a few hours. I’ve used it in an emergency to help chicks that were near death! The cord length is a perfect length. It’s soft and not too heavy. All time favorite!

The XL size is exactly what I wanted. There are several disappointing aspects however. The Low setting gets too hot (much hotter than other heating pads purchased in the past including ones manufactured by Sunbeam). The cover is poorly designed-the corner of the heating pad where the cord sticks out is very sharp and the cover doesn’t stay closed. There is no auto shut off feature. This seems like it should be a basic safety feature. I am keeping this until I find a comparably sized replacement that is better designed but am disappointed overall these features weren’t better thought out in this one.
