Product Reviews of Sunbeam Flexible Heating Pad with 5 Heat Settings and 2 Hour Auto-Off, Blue
Product Review: A heating pad that ain't too hot.
Summary: 3 Stars
This pad is comfortable and the velcro straps are very helpful for using it around different body parts. But it just doesn't get hot enough and the gray plug/switch is very clunky.Product Review: Baby, it's cold on there
Summary: 1 Stars
After using this thing for more than an hour, I still couldn't tell if my body was warming the heating pad or if the heating pad was warming my body. I tossed it under the bed in disgust and haven't used it since. It's got the fancy-smancy controls and velcro and looks pretty and shiny, but it's a major disappointment.
Remembering Mom's old heating pad, I went online and bought a USED heating pad - that dates back to the 1960s. When it arrived, I was pleased as punch. Fire that thing up and put it on LOW and the radiating warmth sends you to a state of raptured bliss. Set it on high and you'll be able to drop a couple eggs on it and fry 'em up real nice.
But this Sunbeam Heating Pad (featured here) is a waste of money. I was profoundly disappointed in its performance. On its highest heat setting, the warmth really is barely discernible. If you're in pain, you don't have time to waste on this.
Product Review: Comfortable, undependable
Summary: 2 Stars
I used this pad (and 3 replacements from Sunbeam) over a period of three years.
The pad was comfortable. The heating works but sometimes it heats up really well, other times it gets only warm.
The pad is connected to really large 3 prong plug-in adaptor from the cord. This can be uncomfortable in some situations. Surely Sunbeam could make this smaller?
But the biggest problem with this pad is that it is undependable. It would work for 3-9 months and then it would stop working, displaying an F1 or F2 code on the LCD display. While it was under the 2 year Sunbeam warranty, I would get a replacement sent (which usually took 3-6 weeks to arrive).
Sunbeam had no idea why I was having continual problems (I even replaced the wall socket but this didn't solve the problem). And they could not tell me what an F1 or F2 code meant??? I even tried escalating the question to a supervisor but was told they had no way to ask their engineers what the codes meant!
I can't recommend this pad due to its unreliability.
Product Review: Doesn't heat up enough ... no buy
Summary: 1 Stars
I have got one today and it doesn't worth the money spent on it. It doesn't heat up enough in the highest temperature setting. Initially it starts to heat up and then stops heating and doesn't come back for quite some time. This is not convenient to use around the neck. I am going to return it back.Product Review: Don't Buy This!
Summary: 1 Stars
Great heating pad until it quit working. Same problem everyone else seems to have - blinking high heat light and no heat. Apparently Sunbeam doesn't care this is a widespread problem. Do NOT buy this piece of junk.
