[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have bought three other heating pads and I can't stand any of them they're hard they just don't work well this one feels good on my shoulders and my back and it's very flexible I love it
Good design for neck and shoulders but controller has gone bad after less than 10 months.

Hello! Thank you for sharing your experience with the Renue® XL Heat Wrap.

I love the idea of this, but the heat settings are basically worthless. I can turn it on low and it will get so hot it starts burning me (even with clothing on) and if I turn it all the way up it’s often only slightly warm. I’ve tried all the recommendations, including unplugging both the outlet and the connector on the unit to reset it, but nothing works. It’s also not really weighted, or at least so slightly that it doesn’t do much good. The magnet for connecting the two flaps is also very weak and basically pointless. This brand has really gone down hill. It used to be such high quality but I guess everything is just cheap these days.

I had this for years! The size is perfect. I love the control & options on the heating levels … it offers perfect coverage for both front and back! It’s very comforting and well worth the price!
This was heavenly until the controller broke. So it sits in a box.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought one of these in 2019. It was amazing. It just died and I bought a new one. The new one even though it is the same name is much smaller and does not work as well. The new ones are a waste of money. Regret this purchase.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
