Product Reviews of Moist Heating Pads - TheraTherm Digital Moist Heating PadsProduct Review: Bad Design Summary: 1 StarsTemperature spikes way above the setting, making you have to turn it back down, no light on controls, finally after about year and half, temperature quit, timer still works. no warranty after 1 year. Buy 10.00 heating pad & after 5 years they still work. Save your money.
Product Review: Been through 2 - Faulty - Shorts Out Summary: 1 StarsAt first I loved this heating pad because it just seems so well made..heavy...comfortable...smart thermostat...etc. Well, after going through 2 and having the same thing happen (faulty wiring causing short in controls) I'm back to using a really REALLY old heating pad that I hate - but at least it is reliable and functions.
Product Review: initial impression Summary: 4 Starsproduct is well made and does what it claims: heat from the device creates warm moisture air under the covered area of the body.
Product Review: Fantastic! Summary: 5 StarsThis is an awesome moist heating pad! My wife and I have been using this, as well as their U-Shaped neck one, for 3 years now. It gets super hot, and with the digital control pad we can directly control the temperature level and the amount of time the product stays on (up to 60 mins).
I had a Thermophore first, before I got us the TheraTherms with digital controls -- Thermophore is also a really awesome heat pad. But the problem with the Thermophore is that you have to hold the lever down to keep it on. With the Thermophore I often zone out while watching TV and let go of the button, then suddenly realize 10 minutes later that the heat pad never got hot. However, with this Theratherm, I just set my temperature and time limits, and forget about it. Can even fall asleep with it on and it will turn itself off, it's great!
I am about to order a new 14x27 TheraTherm -- the one we had lasted 3 years and would probably last a lot longer if I hadn't stepped on the control pad and broke it the other day.
Product Review: Great pad...but it's heavy. Summary: 4 StarsYou really need to decide what issues are important to you when purchasing a heating pad. This pad heats up real high, quickly.. and then cools down to a comfortable level. This is the "burst of heat" described in some reviews. Another consideration is that it is HEAVY...those porcelain dots add lots of weight. For someone with heavy duty arthritis...this could be an issue. The cord is nice and long, but the controller is dumb.... Do I need to "lock it" or just let it run??? Don't get why there is a "lock" feature at all. It also says NOT to lay on it....what the heck? What if you want to put it on your back and are unable to lay on your stomach? I still do it...lay on it I mean.
On the plus side...the size is WONDERFUL...and it really feels good. Despite the weight, I think this is a great pad and would recommend it highly. The only reason for 4 stars is the weight.
