The size is perfect for covering a larger area, and the auto shut-off feature adds extra safety. Soft, comfortable, and easy to use. Highly recommend!

Customer Review: We love our heated mattress especially that I have my own heating control and my husband has his own. We love when it’s cold outside we know we can heat our bed. It has five different settings so happy with it. It’s made so well.

Customer Review: Absolutely love this heated mattress pad. You never have to get in a cold bed again. We use it in the mountains of North Carolina where it is very cold, sometimes even in the summer. But when you put it on, it warms up both of the sheets and keeps you and your bed nice and cozy on those cold winter nights.

Customer Review: This heating pad is fan-freaking- tastic! I have recently had a surgery to shorten my ulna! This heating pad is so supple that I could easily roll it into a tube, to put my sore arm in, for some wonderful heated relief! It has been an amazing boon. Most heating pads I have had previously were thick, and stiff. This one is worlds apart. It is big enough to cover my entire torso, and for my 100lb puppy to steal and curl up on. It gets hot FAST. I was surprised by how fast, truly, and it stays the same temp throughout the two hour on time. The auto off is great for me, because I have taken it to bed, and fallen asleep while using it.I really recommend this product. I was worried that since it was inexpensive, that it would be poor quality, but it is not. It is wonderful!

Customer Review: Love this heating pad. Gets great heat, very soft, and large. My old one crumbled up and this one wont. Love the shut off feature

Customer Review: It’s not nearly as warm to the touch as common electric blankets but I prefer just a mattress warmer like this – it never gets too hot and I feel safer using the low-voltage technology instead of having 120 volts next to my body. It still lets me turn the room heat way down at night, saving money on heating bills. And for me, using this product is more comfortable than leaving the room heat on at night anyway.I like that I can’t feel the wires embedded in the fabric, unless I actually try to search for them, then I can feel how thin and flexible they are. I also like the controller, which is better than the one I had on the brand I previously had. Anyway there’s a number of choices of mattress warmer and I would only buy the kind with thin wires and low voltage – those 2 things go together, and it so happens that thin wires are more comfortable and low voltage means I don’t think fires or getting an electric shock.I have the cable routed under the bed, from the foot of the bed all the way to the night table next to the bed where the controller sits. I need to screw in some little cable guides under there to make it easier to sweep under the bed. The controller stays in place on the night table reasonably well but I’ll probably put a little cable guide on the back of the night table too.Now about that other brand I had, which was Safe and Warm. It had a dial instead of buttons, which was OK but didn’t feel solid and wouldn’t stay in the same place. That unit failed after five years (the heating wires measured open circuit) just after the warranty expired. It’s just possible that two people’s vigorous activities shortened its life. Or it’s possible it just wasn’t engineered to last 20 years or like that. So to be honest I’m prepared to ditch this one after five years if it stops working. But it this Beautyrest does last at least 5 years I would get it again

Customer Review: November 2024 Warranty Feedback_______________I needed to contact JLA for warranty questions, and despite all the reviews about poor feedback from JLA, I found JLA respectful, fast on the return emails (next day or same day), and extremely patient with me. I was prepared for a battle because of some of the negative reviews I’ve read–but I WAS WRONG! The warranty/support process was smooth and pain-free. As a reminder to those ordering this great product, please remember to register your merchandise for the warranty. I gave the Beauty Rest Heated Pad 5-stars last March, and now, I am able to say this JLA deserves 5-stars for their professional and quick customer experience. Thanks JLA!___________(Original review below)Once warm, this heated pad is very cozy. It takes a bit of time to preheat and it appears to heat up using 45-55 watts of power, so there is no huge power draw or lights flickering. In my case it took about 30-40 minutes to heat up to high (5 dots). some of this could have been my getting use to the remote and hitting different buttons during that time. The remote is simple to use. The power cord is two cords together: one goes from the remote to the plug and is joined by the other coming from the pad to the remote. If your table is not directly behind the power outlet, it is difficult to keep the remote head stable on the table or night stand. There are rubber stoppers on the bottom of the remote, but they did little to keep the remote on the table because the joined cords were going in different direction. Therefore, I ended up using small pieces of double stick tape to keep the remote in one location and to prevent if from slipping off the back of the table. It retains heat for sometime after powering off. There is no auto shutoff (or I don’t know how to do it). Instructions are basic (all words, no pics). On high, this pad gets very hot. It does not feels as hot with the palm of your hand, but once you lay on it you can tell it gets real hot. You can tell the power comes from the foot of the bed at the plug in point. So there is more heat in that area to start. Once fully heated you can feel the warmth all over, but the feet seems a little warmer to me. It the XL size fits well on one side of a split-queen. Length is perfect and width is a little bit wider than the split size, but that makes it roll down the side of the bed, about 20 inches so, keeping the thighs warm if you are sitting on the side of the bed. All in all, this is a great product and I wish I had gotten one sooner. It works really well to sooth muscle and joint pains, or just warm you up on those chilly days, and makes the bed cozy for sleeping. I recommend this and I am very satisfied with my purchase.

Customer Review: Originally I got the 24″ one but ended up returning and getting this bigger one. Totally worth it.It outputs a very decent amount of heat and you can control the levels (up to 6) and set the timer in 30 min increments. I personally use it at 5th level and between 30-60 mins. FYI, for me it was not really recommended by the doctor to use it more than 30 mins. It shut off automatically after the set timer.Don’t know about the long term durability yet, but I’ve had it for 2 months now and going strong.5 stars.

Customer Review: It is a great oversized heating pad that is so soft. It wraps around my back and fits across my 2 knees without any problems. I really like the 6 different heating levels and the 30 minute intervals up to 2 hours. It is my favorite heating pad.

Customer Review: Well, I just received this heating pad late yesterday afternoon and used it last night. The product was packaged well, and the control is easy to use with good options on heat setting (in degrees F) and choices in length the pad will be on before shutting off. Soooo, based on that one night’s use I rate the pad highly. The fabric especially has a good fell.This is a 17 inch wide one. My old heating pad is12 inches wide and I was constantly moving it around on my back as I sit in my recliner. This wider one is just perfect since I can place it on the back of my recliner, sit down and the pad covers my whole back so there is no shifting around needed.Overall, a good heating pad and large enough to fit my need for heat on my back while I read or watch TV. It has good levels of heat which you can choose from and different times in operation which you can also choose.

Customer Review: This heating pad is large and so soft and cuddly. Just the feel alone will make you feel better. It works great and the size of it is very effective to cover lots of space. There’s no smell that I can tell. It works at all levels of heating and set times. It seems durable and a very good quality. Well worth it . I definitely recommend.
