TRAKK Electric Heating Pad Reviews

3.7 Rating 100 Reviews
Honestly, this thing is my best friend. I used to be really big and I lost a lot of weight, but as I get older, the toll that weight took on my spine is really starting to show. Not to mention, for my full-time job, I'm at a computer all day, and for my side gig as a writer, I'm at a computer all day. I regularly do yoga poses and use a back stretcher to try and keep my back as limber as I can, but there are times when the pain just won't go away. And that's where this baby comes in.It's soft and pliable enough that I can kind of wrap it around my lower back when I'm working at my desk, but it's big enough that I can lay it out flat on my bed and lay down on top of it when I want to go to sleep. It's the security blanket to my Linus, and I just take it everywhere with me. I love that it has an automatic shut-off, because even though I tried not to when I first got it, I do tend to fall asleep on it. The cord is a nice length -- and sometimes seems even TOO long, though too long is definitely better than too short, and the settings are all pretty decent too.I haven't experienced any negatives with this thing, and I've been using it for a good few months now. I love it and totally recommend it.

Blanket feels like it was made out of high-quality materials. Is large enough that you can almost cover your entire back with it, probably big enough for smaller people to cover their back. The heat output feels good on pulled muscles, I didn't need to use it on the high setting at all. The only negative I have to say is that the button is very easily pressed even by accident like if you shift and bump it. I also noticed that, even when it's turned off, if it is plugged in it will still generate heat and the pad. so the blanket works fine just make sure that you unplug it when you're done using it.

EDITED: Emailed the company and received a full refund. Company willing to go the extra distance to work with me!!!!Company sent me another heating pad for free, and it's working wonderfully! I used it both on my shoulder and back. The heat helped with the pain. My cat enjoys it as much as I do. Thanks for the great customer service.

Heating pads are not something you purchase very often unless you have an ongoing, specific need. I've always owned something cheap that I've picked up at the local Wally. When I started having episodes of serious neck and back pain, I decided it was time to do something better. Being a long-time TRAKK shopper, I new that I could find both the best product and the best deal online.After extensive shopping and comparisons, this product appeared to be the best purchase choice for my money. I received it the very next day, and I am SO glad that I made this choice! First, the pad itself is soft and flexible, and will wrap around a knee or arm without any problem. The heating control is very simple to use... there's one large button that you click once for low, again for medium, again for high, and a fourth time to turn it off. Heat from this pad is nearly immediate... it's amazing how fast it heats up, and it then stays consistently warm. Actually, I've only really used the pad on low, as the amount of heat it provides is amazing. It has a longer cord so it's not been an issue to plug in where I need it. I've used this every single evening for months, and it still looks like brand new. This is a large pad, larger than most, so it has significantly more coverage area than those I've had in the past.If I had to find a "con" for the pad, I would have to point to the electrical connector that's on one corner of the pad. This unit is designed so that you can remove the power source and clean the pad, which is highly unusual, and a positive. The negative is that the connector is about 2 inches in diameter, very flat, and is a hard plastic. All of this is great, but sometimes I have to work to position the pad so that I'm not feeling the connector.I would definitely purchase this product again... it's worth every penny and works far better than any I've used to date. Kudos to the designer and thank you for the relief you provide for me every single evening!

This is the first heating pad I have bought that does not get hot even when it is set at the highest temperature setting. Sunbeam Heating Pad gets way hotter for that necessary pain relief I need for my body. The temperature of this heating pad is, at best, warm on the highest setting.I really wanted this heating pad to work. Sunbeam Heating Pad is so unreliable, often dying on my in less than six months. But at least it actually got hot unlike this Mighty Bliss Heating pad. One thing I will give to this heating pad: It definitely has the nicest, softest pad compared to other heating pads.I emailed coy@mightybliss.com to see if I'll get help. I will update my review in the next few days and let ya'll know what happens.Update (07/01/19):The owner, Coy, provides amazing customer service. With my complaint, he told me I can keep the heating pad and he will refund me or replace the pad. Although the pad still isn't the hottest pad on the market, it is still warm and relaxing to use. It may not help with aches and pain as good as other pads, but it is definitely comfortable and relaxing to use. I decided to keep the pad since it is still relaxes me. For the customer service alone, my review score increased from 1/5 to 4/5 for the customer service support alone. I truly feel if the pad gets wonky in the future, Coy will have my back!Update 09/01/19 -The heating pad has not failed on us. It continues to be soft and plushy for use. The heat output for each level has stayed the same now as the first day we got the pad. What I am saying is, this heating pad continues to be 100% reliable!We have used this heating pad to help calm us down when anxiety is bad, for comfort when we need it, and for mild pain as needed. It is worth every dollar we spent on it! I think you'll find this heating pad worth your money!

Finally, I found a heating pad that meets all of my needs! The size is perfect for wrapping around a thigh to calm muscle cramps to reducing shoulder, back and buttocks pain. the temperature controls are reliable and very sufficient. They are responsive and hold the temperature setting constant. The heating pad cover is thicker than others I have purchased, soft and comfortable. In addition, the quick delivery through TRAKK was really helpful.

This heating pad is AMAZING! I was hesitant to purchase one online, I would have preferred to see them in person first, but after using the product, and then dealing with the company, I could not be happier! The heating pad itself is very large. The cord is long an sturdy. The heat output is amazing and it heats up quickly.I did have a small problem with the first one that I received. I dont know if it was user error, or a defect with the product. After about 4 months or so of use, it refused to turn on. It was just a blinking red light. I contacted the company to ask about the problem and they stated that the blinking red light is a build in safety feature when the pad's coils get bunched up. Either way, they immediately asked me if I wanted a refund. Normally I would have said yes, but I was so impressed with the quickness of their customer service team, that I just asked for a replacement to be sent out. They sent it out that same day! It arrived within a few days, and it is working perfectly! At a time where every dollar counts, and people are being very choosy with how they spend their money, this company really stepped it up! I will definitely be a repeat customer, and will recommend to friends and family!FIVE STARS! ALL THE KUDOS!

I needed a heating pad and borrowed them from others, but decided I needed one at hand so purchased my own. The reviews were good, especially the personal contact with the company. I ordered this one because there was no automatic shut off. I need heat, even if low when I have bronchitis for my chest through the night. The cover is SOFT, unlike most, and the temperature even and effective. It was so soothing and calming. Yesterday I overdid it playing Brick Layer and Landscaper. When I turned in, I laid on it on my back - first for the neck and upper spinal cord region, then the upper back or thoracic area, next the lumber lower back area, then the attachment of the gluts to the pelvis rim, then my aching knees, and last of all my aching feet. I have to report that even though I probably injured my left shoulder, I am not in any pain today. I'm 58 and female, BTW. :)
