1.0 out of 5 stars Great heating pad, but the controls burn out., October 27, 2005

This review is from: SoftHeat Ultra Heating Pad Moist/Dry, King Size, 12-Inch by 24-Inch (Health and Beauty)

My first impression of this heating pad was, "GREAT!" It is large enough to wrap around a sore shoulder and well down the back, it has nice controls and four heat settings, and turns off after an hour or so (for safety). Unfortunately, it was only 3 weeks before it stopped working. I exchanged it for another unit (thought maybe it was a fluke). The replacement lasted about two months of almost daily use, then died. It appears that the controller simply burns out. I would not recommend this heating pad.

1.0 out of 5 stars Faulty Product, November 5, 2005

This review is from: SoftHeat Ultra Heating Pad Moist/Dry, King Size, 12-Inch by 24-Inch (Health and Beauty)

I had the exact same experience as Stan, another reviewer. I bought this heating pad and when it turned itself off, I could not get it started again. Like Stan, I thought it was a fluke and bought another. Same problem, two days after buying the pad. I have looked in four stores in the Seattle area and cannot find another brand of heating pad. This one should not be on the market. I am sending both pads back to the manufacturer.

Boy I wish I had read the customer reviews before buying this pad... The auto off feature totally sucks, it should be a selectable feature not default. I was under the impression after reading the description that the auto off feature was only on the pro models and the one i bought didnt say anything about being a promodel... I love the size, too bad it dosnt work...
