AtsuwellMicrowave Heating Pad, Rice Microwavable Moist Heat Pack for Cramps, Neck and Shoulders, Knee, Wrist, Joints, Bean Bag Heating Pad for Warm Compress, Relaxation, Blue

Most of my other heating/ice pads are very stiff. I love this one. There was no odor to the pad. It heated up in the microwave nicely in 60 seconds. As it started to cool I flipped it over and the heating continued on the other side. The size was perfect for what I needed. Some caveats. Directions say not to clean it by soaking in a solution. Just wipe clean. Heat the pad in a clean microwave oven. The brown paper on which the directions are written in white print is almost impossible to read. This should be easier to read & in larger print. A nice zippered bag would be a nice addition for a small increase in price. I have already lent it to 2 friends to try who are interested now in buying it also because of the smaller size, that it can be folded over and the fabric is so so smooth on your skin. The price was reasonable also.

Only wish is that it were larger, but the dimensions are clear on the page. The internal manufacturer packaging is very intelligently done to protect the pad in shipment. The instructions are crystal clear, and the materials say that you should adjust how long you put in the microwave based on your microwave's wattage. I have a 1200 watt oven, so I put it in for 40 seconds instead of 60 (which reflects the 1000 watt oven my parents have), and it was perfect. Very soft, and very slightly the damp-without-being-damp that microwaveable rice bags get when heated. Pleasant smell too. Perfect for when you want to take a nap but don't want to leave a heating pad plugged in on you (which is dangerous; I don't trust electronic safety settings). Outstanding for pain relief--I've been moving stuff around and doing a ton of cleaning, and my back and arms and sciatic nerves are all getting overworked, and this does a great job when placed on my hip in particular (because one sciatic nerve always seems to get worked more than the others). I do wish it were a little bigger and covered more area, but it's definitely more than worth the money and the pain relief.

Good product... Holds heat well

A great item to get moist heat easily

Good product

It works perfectly,

Purchased to wrap my site foot in to give some comfort. This wrap doesn't stay cold or hot for that matter for very long. Become close to room temp within minutes. Give a quick and immediate relief and that's about it. I do no recommend this product.

It's smaller than I expected. It works, tho. Just what I needed.
