Beurer - Portable Shoulder Heating Pad - Gray

I occasionally suffer from shoulder and neck pain after doing strenuous work around the house. I thought this Beuer Shoulder Heating pad would help on those days where the pain is especially bad. The heating pad is covered with a nice soft fleece-like fabric and is easily adjustable for just the right fit around your neck. It is large enough to completely cover both of my shoulders and has an extra flap that reaches up and covers the back of my neck up to my hairline. It is rated at 50 watts and there are 6 heat settings to choose from. I found that it heats up fairly quickly. For me, a setting of about 3 is more than sufficient. When I measured it with a thermometer, it registered a surprisingly toasty 135 degrees. Just to see what the maximum temp would be at its highest setting, I slid the controller to Level 6 and the temperature topped out at about 150 degrees. As a safety feature, the unit automatically shuts off after 2 hours in case you doze off while using it (which is entirely possible!). I really like the fact that the whole thing is machine washable and dryable – all you do is disconnect the power cord and toss it in the wash. An added bonus is that is comes with a limited lifetime warranty. All in all, it’s a nice heating pad.

I have really enjoyed this Beurer Portable Shoulder Heating Pad. I have arthritis on my left shoulder and neck and this heating pad is a lifesaver. I can snap it together around my neck and watch a movie on my computer, or take a nap and it is held in position. It has 6 different temperatures which give you exactly the heat you want or need.

This heating pad can be used as a flat panel, but it is primarily designed to wrap around the neck and drape down the back, with a tab up on the back of the neck. Either way you use or place it, it works well, supplying all the heat you can stand, or just enough to warm you on a cool day. The heat control has seven stetting, from 0 to 6, with 0 being the off position. 1 is the lowest setting with mild heat, then progressively hotter to 6 being the hottest setting. My personal use of this heating pad is to apply heat on an injured shoulder that occurred while working out with weights several years ago and still occasionally plagues me. I just drape the heating pad over my shoulder and hold it close with my opposite hand to get the full benefit of the heat, usually set around 5 or 6 for fifteen to twenty minutes. Work really well to remove any discomfort or pain from the injury. Heat treatment works pretty well for most people, but I would hesitate to use it on burns or abrasions to the skin without a doctor's recommendation. Other than that, this would make a good addition to one's first aid kit.

This Beurer shoulder heating pad is an excellent choice for those who have minor aches and pains in their shoulders, knees, and anywhere else on their bodies they to apply healing heat. As with any product that produces heat, such as a heating blanket or heating pad, you'll want to read and understand all instructions and precautions before use. Also, in my opinion, you should keep this device away from small children, and never leave it on during sleep. I could not find a negative thing to say about this wonderful device, but there are plenty of pluses: 1) It has an overheat element and turns off after two hours of use, 2) six temp settings, 3) has a very soft and "breathable" fabric, 4) uses only 50w of electricity, and 5) it comes with a limited lifetime warrenty. We were surprised at how quickly it heats up. You can remove the power unit and wash the pad...it's polyester.

This shoulder heating pad is amazing. It has 6 different levels of heat. I can't go past 4 because I start to sweat 3 is much more comfortable. It helped me so much. Sits in all the right places and feels very good. Nice look and choice of fabric color.

This is a very handy item! If I have any neck or shoulder pain this works great to relieve it. The only caveat I have with it is that I wish the neck portion had a higher, soft collar that would cover the neck. I also think it's a bit stiff around the neck when you tighten it. Still a good buy!

This Beurer Portable Shoulder Heating Pad is nice and big. It heats quickly buy does not get too hot. I already have a back massager that get heated and i would say this gets that same hot, as a heating pad only i would have like for it to get more heated. It is very soft and fluffy though. Also it says not to lay or press or sleep on it. But i have yo say i feel the heat better when i press back onto it especially for the shoulder area, it does not rest directly around the shoulder without help. I like that it works for the back area too.

So while trying to figure this out for the first time was a pain in the you know what, after figuring it out it is a great heating pad. I sleep funny so usually wake up with super sore shoulders and this has helped tremendously. I would buy this a million times over.

I really like this shoulder heating pad as I have some issues with both my shoulders aching from time to time and this pad is large enough to warm both shoulders and the muscles around them, at the same time. The opening in the soft fabric pad is adjustable in size, so the pad can used by all the members of the family, which is really nice. The control has 6 temperature settings, although I usually set it in the middle of the range, which is warm enough to gently warm the shoulders and back muscles and quickly relief any pains I am having. While there are clasps to keep it from sliding down off your shoulder area, I would say the only short coming of the pad is that there is nothing to keep it snug against your skin, but I simply sit in a chair and lean back to keep it against my shoulder muscles.

I'm not sure if this is defective or if this is its norm, but this does not get hot. It's barely warmer than just having a regular garment on. The design and fabric are awesome. It's a nice size and very comfortable on the shoulders but there's no discernable heat.
