I in search for a new heating pad.  I have found this one I thought is interesting.  I would love any input if any of you have this.  It is a bit pricey but I have no problem with the price as long as it works.  The reviews are excellent.  I would appreciate any other suggestions from any of you have one you love.  TIA!!

I usually buy a sunbeam one.  Its a tried and true brand. This is the one I was going to get.

My favorite is the Sunbeam also.

I get the long one with the soft velvet type cover.(cover is permanent but can be unplugged and washed) I can usually find them at most drug stores or Walmart.They cost anywhere from $29-about $40.Sunbeam® King Size XpressHeat™ Heating Pad, Burgundy

WOW… I’d never pay $170 for a heating pad when there are so many others that will do the same thing for much less money.  I have several of them…big, small, for shoulders, for the back and they are all from Sunbeam.  If something happens to one, I can just get another at that price.  Fortunately, they have all worked great for years!  Do what you want, but I would get a Sunbeam and find better things to do with the money I saved by not buying the most expensive.  Higher price does not always mean better product/service.

@BornToShop  I think that heating pad looks awesome and I'd purchase if I didn't already have a long one by Sunbeam.  I don't know what you are targeting with the heating pad, but I just thought I'd mention I bought a heated mattress pad and it is the best.  It has five levels of heat and separate controls for each side of the bed.  I love hunkering down at night in the toasty bed.  Helps me sleep and heal!

Sunbeam makes nice heating pads. I have a regular one and one that wraps around the neck. This winter, because the bedroom can get really cold since it's above the garage, I bought a Sunbeam heated throw on sale. I will use that under the bed blankets to get my feet warm and toasty. It has an auto shutoff feature too.
