Bed Buddy Neck Heating Pad and Microwave Heating Pad, Heated Neck Wrap - Heating Pad For Neck, Sore Muscles - Microwavable Neck Heating Pad, Heating Pad For Cramps, Neck Warmer

After reading some of the recent reviews of this product, I had to put up my own review. The original Bed Buddy was awesome, but they sold to Carex brand. It's still a good product. I heat mine at 1 minute (in a 1000-watt microwave) which I think is still over what you're supposed to heat them at, but it hasn't caught fire. When it has cooled down to barely warm, I will reheat at 1 minute again. Read the directions, don't heat and reheat too close together. I have never had one burn up or catch fire in the microwave. I also have an electric neck warmer that has settings 1-9 and how many hours you want it to be on by another company. I use it at the pc. With these two, I'm covered. The neck warmer is not meant to be HOT. Its purpose is to warm your muscles slightly. It relieves stiffness, and pain. It is comfortable to wear all day, even as it cools; the weight is actually comforting. The wrap does have handles which don't seem needed. The wrap, even without burning up, will eventually wear out and should be replaced if it smells like it has been cooking. It does not have beads. Make sure the microwave turn table is clean before heating. The stitching keeps the filling in place and is very helpful. The price has increased since Bed Buddy sold it years ago: originally it was $9.95, now the list price appears to have gone up to $12.95. I have tried other neck wraps but always come back to this one. Don't expect it to last forever and try not to burn it up :)

Love it! So comforting for my neck. I also appreciate the handles to adjust coverage. Design is perfect.

I had purchased a Bed Buddy years ago and loved it so very much. It was back in 1982 I purchased my first Bed Buddy for cramps and muscle tension. What I really liked a lot is that in the 1980's heating buddy it is written on the other skin how to heat it, on high for x amount of time. This one is not written anywhere that I looked, so you are left to try what you wish until you get the results you're looking for. A few years ago, after having my bed buddy for many years, the beads just turned into sand, and what a mess it made.

Works like a charm everytime! Just heat up in the microwave and bye bye shoulder pain!

I've had this product for 9 years now. It still works well and has held up very well. Highly recommend this product.

Works great. If it smells, you are microwaving it too long. Had to figure this out. I like to put it in the microwave in a circle shape, microwave for one minute, then flip it, and microwave for another minute. Then it’s hot but not smelly.

I like the weight of it - however it doesnt seem to get as hot as I would like nor does it stay hot very long. Though I do like it, it's not as awesome as the one I had many years ago. Still, I'll keep it and use it.

This product is great for neck pain, I use it for hot and cold therapy and it works well. I freeze it and use it until it is no longer cold then I put it in the microwave to heat it and it last 15 minutes and feel great on my neck. I would recommend this product to anyone who's has neck pain, it's easy to use and works well.
