I had a funeral for the pad, died at 9mos
[[VIDEOID:5680804e8ee68b37423d8c4a2bbb1aed]] I had a funeral for the pad, since it died just around 9mos. I didn't have insurance, since it is not provided... so I was unable to provide a casket for it.<br />It was wonderful until it quit working after 9 months. The light just flashes green & it won't let me choose a heat setting (turn it on). I bought a plastic one from Walmart that's last me over 7yrs!!! I like this one bevause it's comfortable, soft & can be washed. Too bad it's "dead" now! I know engineers who work for companies to intentionally make products go out after a certain time - mainly after the warranty is up on the item, pretty messed up huh! The warranty on this heating pad is only 90 days.<br />It gets one star, for keeping my back warm for the months it did last. If your cold, put a heating pad against your lower back & I find it warms the entire body up. It's very comfortable, underneath my lower back. I washed it & it continued working for a bit after that. The lowest setting is sometimes just enough warmth for me... heated up pretty well - WHEN IT *WAS* WORKING!<br />Does anyone else find it odd that back in 80s an early 90s these types of products lasted SO long... MOST electronics did! And now it's 2019, and you know we've advanced technology wise, so why in the he11 are things not lasting as long as they used to?! BECAUSE THEY'RE USING THAT TECHNOLOGY TO MAKE PRODUCTS GO OUT SOONER, ESPECIALLY AFTER WARRANTY IS UP!!<br />What a wonderful world we live in... with loving, compassionate & unselfish people.
