Calming Heat Review: Next-Gen Heating Pad?

[@JustSomeGuyWithAMask]

I think it’s time for James to review the Litter Robot. Put your cat on the spotlight!

[@rashhsa4443]

I have one and it's one of the best purchases I have ever made. Had it for 4 years. Any time I have a problem their customer service fixes it quick and it's saved me money in litter.

[@begoodbebetterbeblessedix3766]

Wld love a review on this. My cat Nuisance has arthritis of the spine...n do wonder if a problem child (lol) could access the opening....and/or if the cat will be too scared to use when the machine turns on. If he needs a dummy to do a review, Nuisance is available 😉😆

[@rashhsa4443]

@@begoodbebetterbeblessedix3766 I once had a cat named nuisance too!! Love it :)

[@rashhsa4443]

I hope he does a review on it, but if he doesn't I can honestly say your cat should do just fine with it. The litter robot 3 has a very large opening and there is an option for purchasing stairs for the older cats who may have trouble climbing in. For the first 2 weeks my cats were very intimidated by it, then they found it fun to watch and now they don't even blink an eye towards it while it spins. If the cat tries to enter while it's turning the device will stop and wait a few minutes before continuing

[@jonv8177]

I got this for my mom as a Christmas gift, she absolutely loves it

[@Zeldybear]

The fact that you can’t lay on it and also the warning about not putting it on your abdomen makes it pretty much useless for me. Those are essentially the only reasons I use a heating pad the majority of the time 😂

[@jajakilla]

Same

[@KaneshaAndrews]

Same here

[@mizzshortie907]

Why cant you put it on your abdomen

[@friggintourist7751]

Mines an old one that gets nice and hot even on low. It says not to fold or roll it but i do anyway and lay on it and never had an issue with it not working. I love putting it on my bare skin too, ill shove it right into my waistband and curl into the fetal position until it starts to burn. It doesn't vibrate but its still my preferred heating pad

[@carissamessina1908]

Same! I just commented that.

[@ChrisWCorp]

My mom literally just gave this to me today (she had bought it for a gift but found something else) and I was going to put it to the test soon. Neat to see this review pop up just in time.

[@Freakinreviews]

Perfect timing!

[@NoThankUBeQuiet]

I also ALMOST bought one the other day but decided on the immediacy of target.

[@erinjackson6243]

If you are looking for a heating pad for your shoulders/upper back, Sunbeam makes one that sits over your shoulders and fastens with a magnet in the front. It has a little bit of weight to it and is very flexible. I have chronic issues with my neck and upper spine and that heating pad has helped me deal with a lot of the pain. It's around 40 bucks on amazon.

[@nikkids4266]

My friend has that one too. It’s amazing. Her name is Erin too. Lol

[@dmaynardabu]

I agree with you. I have the sunbeam heating pad and it is by far the best heating pad I have ever used.

[@blondy2061h]

That thing lives plugged in next to my bed

[@srshama]

I also agree the Sunbeam one is great and it lives next to my bed every single night

[@cockersplodie]

Absolutely. Love that one. I discovered it when I had frozen shoulders. Saved my bacon.

[@brucecoleman7412]

Most heating pads I’ve used seem to work best when I lay on them. The price tag and all of the “Don’ts” in the instructions count me out. Sometimes your videos are extremely useful in letting me know what not to buy. Thanks, James!

[@bitternessbarbie8655]

But if you can't lay on it... What's the point?

[@laurahubbard6906]

I have low-back pain and can't lie on my stomach, so I suspect this would be useless.

[@laurallewien2165]

I'll stick to my good ol Sunbeam heat pad...but thanks for the video James, you do make Humpday fun!

[@Dj4800moviestudio]

I love your reviews man! Keep it up!

[@2luverly345]

Thanks for another great product review video! - Your detail reviews that show you trying all settings and/or under many variable circumstances are greatly appreciated!

[@dash_rabbit]

$60?! For 30 bucks, I'll give you a heating pad and a bag of rocks. 😃

[@witchesofessex1]

😂😂😂

[@kathleennorton6108]

$60 no longer is a lot of money for specialized products. Just wait until the inflation and high gas prices are incorporated into prices. It could be very bad.

[@Adaughtersheart-Isa53]

🤣🤣🤣

[@bdbgh]

Is there a cooling version of it? would be really nice in my hot and humid country

[@novaiscool1]

I have one of these and I love it. Mine didn't come with the pro tip card, I'm going to try that leave it folded thing next time I use it.

[@MsDogMom]

So happy to see your new post! Long day at work, and this is exactly what I need!!

[@bradasstv]

I'm with ya James. Got lots of issues and the regular heating pad is annoying on the neck. I can never get it right and it slides off. This seems like a good idea in theory 👍

[@kathyn1343]

If you want a fabulous, HOT non massaging heating pad I recommend the Battle Creek heating pad. It is weighted and conforms well to the body and it just Gets so incredibly hot. I can’t use it on high. It is a bit expensive but for those of us with chronic pain 1000% worth it.

[@dianedeck]

I have the battle creek Bedwarmer its awesome. Battle creek must be a good brand for heating pads.

[@kathleennorton6108]

How much are they, about, please?

[@joannwright7253]

I have the Battle Creek heating pad. It’s amazing. It’s heavy and get very hot and the heat is moist so it really penetrates the muscles. It was around $99 on Amazon. It’s lasted for years.

[@success9271]

Came to the comments to recommend this heating pad. I learned of it from a massage therapist (guy who runs Painscience) and MY GOD, it is amazing! Its microfiber cloth covering traps in moisture from the air and provides DEEP, moist heat. Recently I got the 14" x 27" model for around $65 USD shipped and use it daily for my cold hands...best investment ever, and actually it isn't my first. I had already purchased one many years ago for my cold feet and it still works!

[@charissesavier9023]

I think all the Next Gen products sold came in a defective shipment from China. I bought 4 of these which all were defective. I didn't even have the massaging part. I loved it until it stopped working, best heating pad I ever had.

[@ruffusp768]

Does it have a warranty? Does anyone know?

[@bwynn3296]

Thank u James for all that you review. Love your channel

[@midnitetoker420]

@James I've always wondered, do you leave product reviews on Amazon?

[@barcham]

Any massage pad will be uncomfortable to lay on as the lump you feel in the centre is the motor that provided the massage function. There are massage pads that you CAN lay on, but they are not usually the kind that shapes to your body, but pads with a fixed shape that have the massage motor affixed to one end of the device where the power cable is and are intended for your back only.

[@queenb1119]

I totally understand you when you say how you can't handle too much vibration against your skin. I'm the same way! My dad rides a Harley and any time we go for a ride, if I lean against the back rest for even a minute or two the vibrations from the bike make my skin feel itchy and tingley. Like my skin is falling asleep! I have the same problem with hot tub jets. Any type of warm vibrations really irritate my skin within seconds after contact. I still go for rides with my dad and use hot tubs though. I just don't lean on the back rest or sit in front of the jets. I guess I just can't say no to cruisin' and tubbin'! 🤷‍♀️😄

[@ferociousgumby]

What's calming are these reviews! PLEASE keep them coming, I find them so oddly comforting during this lousy time.

I have this, as a Christmas gift and my opinion of it is the same as yours. I have a heating bad I love more for heat but this is weighted so it works in situations where I want to heat up my shoulder, just wish it was more flexible.

[@DrummerGrrrl]

Hey, James, if you have back and neck issues, I HIGHLY recommend the "Pillow Cube". I bought the rectangular version in 5" and my neck and back pain has been greatly reduced. Best $126 I ever spent. I might buy the 4" rectangular Pillow Cube next. The cube and rectangle pillows come in 4", 5", and 6". I've had mine for less than a month and it's the ONLY pillow I use now.

[@karine8738]

He review pillow and the cube pillow was not their favorite... Hum I have neck problem and bacj pain... You still love it ? I am kind of broke so afraid to not buy the good one

[@photogbrandie5744]

I love mine. I use it for bone pain and the accompanying muscle pain. I lean on it in my recliner all the time, so I think it should be fine to use it that way, just don’t lay on it. And when I use it on my legs, the weight makes it feel like a hug. I’ve used mine almost daily for over a year now. Great product.

[@ironeagle2526]

I bought one from walmart for 25.00 its soft and large and you can even lay on it and spray it with water for a moist heat no massage on it but who cares and its machine washable and it does have 3 setting and auto shut off and it gets really hot on high

[@Pienimusta]

[@DianeC.]

Hi James!!! I liked your video today. I have tried a weighted blankee but I did not like the feel of it. It's a nice and big heating pad. I have a good one but would consider this one. Nice video. P. S. Alot say not to use heating pads with ointments. I always tell my family this!!! Love your Dog 🐕❤.

[@Martin_Vail_Esq.]

James, if you have spine issues, review the “Posture Pump” and/or Quell pain relief. I love the Quell and although I am a skeptic, it really worked for me. Even it is is just a placebo effect, it reduces my pain.

[@BloodStainedTear]

[@LaurenSchraderMusic]

My mom and I are chronic pain patients and we got one of these to try a while back. My mom didn’t think it gets hot enough and I don’t think it is really useful anywhere that I need it because it would turn off at the slightest hint of pressure. If you are a chronic pain patient, stick with the tried and true brands.

I love heating pads because I'm an achy old lady who works hard. I do have to have ones I can lay on due to low back pain, and cannot lay on my stomach. No heating pad is really supposed to be laid on except heated mattress pads, so I just buy fairly cheap ones, knowing I'll have to replace them soon.

I have a $13.00 heating pad that I've folded, laid upon for hours, and otherwise mangled and it still works after 3 years. It doesn't get blazing hot, and cycles on and off to prevent getting too hot, but in my experience it's how long I leave it on, not how hot it is, that really helps with injuries. It doesn't surprise me that you have neck problems with all the computer stuff you do James. 😉 Don't stop doing what you're doing though!

[@charissesavier9023]

I purchased 4 of these things in the last 2 mos from Amazon and was sleeping on it. The first lasted 2 mos. I absolutely loved it until then. I had to one with rocks on it with a 24 hour shut off. Mine was not massaging, I had to eat the first one, unable to return. The next one was a similar but different type. It lasted a single day. I didn't sleep on it. It was refunded. The 3rd lasted just a few minutes and the supplier sent me another one but not the same. (It's OK, not weighted with a 2 hour shut off.) The 4th lasted only 2 minutes. I wasn't sleeping on it. They shut off and do not turn back on. This was also refunded.' Almost all heating pads say not to lay on them or sleep with them, but hold up well anyway. My last heating pad lasted for years with me lying on it al night during the cold months. If I can't lay on it or sleep with it, it is useless to me. I also like them very hot. Does anyone have a recommendation for a heating pad for me? I'm hoping to get the infra red ones for Christmas, those I know you cannot use all night. I will use a different one for that.

[@UndeadEyes]

Random fact from an LMT: The itching sensation you sometimes get when you use something like a massage gun is caused by your nerves becoming overstimulated. Massage guns are not meant to be used in one area for long periods for that very reason. However, everyone can tolerate it for different periods. Again, just a random fact. For that same $60, you could just get a massage. *Cracks her knuckles* I'm on it. lol. Personally, for my own aches, I just get a normal heating pad I can sleep on so it warms my back but will also turn off because of the safety feature after a few hours. That's just me though.

[@kathleennorton6108]

It seems that since it molds to the body, the heat would transfer into the body better, even if there isn't as much of it.
