GENIANIDouble Sided XL Heating Pad Electric for Lower Back Pain & Period Cramps Relief, Heat Pad with 3 Heat Settings for Neck & Shoulders, Heat Patches (12"x24" Electric Blue)

I always purchase these and I use it consistently for my back aches my stomach ache or just to stay warm they are wonderful long lasting heating pad. I’ve purchased four of them over the years and everyone of them works great and the only reason I move on and use a new one is cause I’ve had them for three years and I use them almost daily.!

Got me through the last few months of my endometriosis before I got my hysterectomy. 10/10. Good quality, easy to use, design is easy and logical. Definitely a good comfort item.

This is probably my favorite and most used thing I’ve ever purchased off Amazon. It’s larger than most heating pads and it’s very cozy. Not that hard plastic you get with most. The cord length is perfect. It also has automatic shut off.

It's not as large as you'd think. The way the plug attaches on the pad makes it smaller, it's a large flat attachment in the corner (2" flat disc) but takes up space. It heats well, but also the button presses easily so it gets pressed accidentally often, changing the setting. That said, it might be great for those with neuropathy in their fingers or even arthritis because of the ease of use. It's soft, the cord is long enough. The large power cord attachment just bothers me.

Works really well, has a nice shut off timer, and holds up well. Has really helped the wife with back pain

While this heating pad gets HOT, you don't have to worry about getting burned (the last heating pad I had- I got some serious second-degree burns and bad blisters). There are three heating levels. Please see the photos of the timer- it is pretty simple to use- low, medium, and high.I didn't like that there is no timer on the heating pad- and it seems to turn off after an hour or two (I never have really kept track). But I use a heating pad most- at night- and the fact I don't know how long it takes to turn off- which means the lack of a timer isn't a bothersome feature with this pad. After almost a month- I don't think the feature is as important as I once thought.What I loved was that the night this heating pad broke, I ordered this one and had it in under 12 hours. I like to have heating pad access 24/7- so when the one I had broke after about a month and a half- I picked one out that was cheap and that would come quickly. Because it seems, no matter how much I choose to pay for a heating pad- none of them last me long. Why not try a cheap one after the expensive one broke after a month and a half?The one that lasted the longest was the only one I got for free- from my insurance (a few years ago). And it was the cheapest of the bunch. The most expensive one- gave me second-degree burns (with warnings I finally found out was in the fine print- the very very fine print they later pointed out to me) and broke after a month and a half. So I will see how this one lasts- so far so good.The heating pad size is overly large- as you can see in my photos- I took three larger paperback books and set them on the pad and there was still room on it- width-wise. The cover of the heating pad is also nice- and very comfortable. I also included a photo of the controller.I would encourage others, as I do with all heating pads after being burned- if you are using the beating pad on your bare neck or shoulders, even your back- don't fall asleep the first few times until you are sure your body can take the heat. You never know- the other pad wasn't even set to that high of a level (a five out of nine) when it burned me- it just got that hot. However, this heating pad has not done anything like that to me- I just always warn others now- just to be safe.I have had this heating pad for a month in a few days. So far I have had no issues, other than the fact there is no timer and that has not bothered me as it stays on long enough for me to fall asleep. I would say this is a great heating pad that can come to you quickly (if you make the right selections). And for a rough user- this one is still in good shape. However, if and when I have issues I will update this review accordingly below (and with a loss of stars, if needed).And if you're thinking of this item as a gift for anyone- I think you are an angel as I would love to be gifted heating pads as a present. Anything for a pain sufferer that can help- and heating pads do work (as a pain sufferer I know this to be true)!Please feel free to reach out and ask me any questions you may have about this item. I will get back to you as soon as possible with a response- if I have one (and I will do my best to get one).Thank you*****************************UPDATE (why it went from five stars to two)Update on Review January 5, 2024- Being very upset about what happened with this product, I had to update my review and let others know about this heating pad.After a little more than a month of use (started to use it on Now. 30) this heating pad no longer works. I am tired of spending money on these things and then- they quickly break. However this heating pad gets the award for breaking the fastest.So, unless you want to pay to possibly use a heating pad for a few days after it most likely could have been returned (like I want to deal with that drama- returning it)- try another one. For the money this one wasn't too bad but for it to break after a month with it's lack of any features- I would try anything else (if I were someone else).Thank you.

My daughter loves it, no complaints. Nice and comfy she says. Has had it probably a year maybe 2

The heating pad is decent but doesn't get hot enough. If you compared the heat coming off this thing to your morning cup of coffee, then you would throw it out for being too cold. Items in my house that aren't even designed to heat up that much put off more heat than this thing. Like laptops, tvs, consoles.I used a thermometer on my skin/device it was 103.3 So if your curious how hot it will be just put a cup of hot water on your table till it hits that temp. I gave it 3 stars because it is probably suited for kids/pets.
