Purchased this item a few week later ago and have been using every day I have back pain all the time and usually use hot water bottles but this pad does the job much better it’s not bulky has safety features such as auto off.. I like the design & that the controls can be used to either direct it straight onto full heat or go from 1-6 settings to suit different preferences . It doesn't take long to get to full heat and is very comfortable what ever part of the body it's used on and starts to relieve the aches and pains after 15 mins of use, It does however get very hot and you need to be careful
its a fab item tho, I couldn't live without it now... great therapy
super value, clearly made to last
