SunnyBay Microwave Heating Pad, Microwavable Heated Neck and Shoulder Wrap for Moist Hot Lightly Weighted with Moldable Flaxseed, Cotton and Fleece Surface, 26x6 Inches, Ocean Blue

It does heat up and feel nice but the smell is overwhelming and horrible and makes me feel sick! It smells bad!! Yuck. I get the worst headache and feel nauseous. Update - I immediately heard from the seller after writing this review. She was so kind and caring and offered me a full refund. She said the odor was from the fresh seeds and would dissipate with usage. I am extremely sensitive to smells, much more than most people. I can't be around any perfumes. Everything else about it is great. It is well made and the weight is perfect and the materials soft. (I'm very fussy about textures too.) It does heat up nicely in the microwave and felt heavenly to my sore neck.

Exactly what I needed! Moist heat without being moist and can be warmed up quickly for continued use (though not prolonged - per directions). The lavender scent can be strong at first. Had whiplash from a recent fall where my head it a door jamb … I was up within seconds of the fall and felt fine except for goose egg on my noggin. Over the next day or so I started feeling the tightness settle in my neck, and, while I could turn my head, it was slow and felt like wherever I stopped I kinda froze in place for a bit. *** if something similar has happened to you, please seek medical attention to avoid any further injury to your neck/spinal cord *** fortunately I was able to figure it out and got this item right away to slowly ease my neck back into regular operation. I have a heating pad but thought moist heat would be better and I think it made the difference. Within a few days I was able to look over my shoulder in both directions. Keep the instruction card handy by the microwave so you don’t over heat it. It can also be used to warm the foot of your bed under the covers for a better night’s sleep. I did sorta hold it closed around my neck the first couple of times, then got a bath towel to tie around the whole set up on my neck so I didn’t have to hold it there. I started turning my head left and right the second day I used it .. for a few times starting out and progressed to looking back further as the stiffness would allow.

This heating pad works really well and has become a regular part of my routine for relieving shoulder tension and easing headaches. It heats up quickly in the microwave, retains warmth for a good amount of time, and contours nicely around the neck and shoulders for targeted comfort. That said, even after dozens of uses, it still has a noticeable smell, not overpowering or unpleasant, but definitely still there. It hasn’t been a dealbreaker for me, but something to keep in mind if you’re sensitive to scents. Pros: Quick and easy to heat Provides excellent relief for tension and headaches Stays warm for a while Cons: Persistent smell, even after extended use Overall, this is a solid heating pad that delivers on comfort and functionality, with just one small trade-off.

Love this wRms up fast wrap it around my neck and can move around and do other things as well. Very convinent. Super glad bought this.

This heating pack was easy to microwave, kept its heat for a good length of time and the smell was pleasant and not overwhelming. I bought the neck and shoulder wrap which weighs 2.2 lbs. I found that for my build and neck issues it was too heavy. When I called SunnyBay I interacted with a very helpful customer service person who offered to send me the smaller size rectangular pack which weighs 1.1 lb. This is very comfortable for me. I will pass on the longer pack to someone who is more able to tolerate its weight. I really appreciated the customer service I received from Sharon!

I bought this neck warmer for my wife because we had repeated issues with the quality of the stitching on another brand, it was letting the flaxseed leak out and required constant repair. We were impressed with the quality manufacture of this product, as well as its feel, but like some others found the burnt odor intolerable (she has high sensitivity to smells). To provide the heat she needs on her shoulders, the recommended 1:40 period in the microwave is too little, yet exceeding it burns the contents inside.

It works great I am very happy with this damp heat neck pad. The price was good and the quality is great. I really like the weight of it so it stays in place around the neck. I would recommend this item. Shipping was fast.

Heats up well and lasts awhile ! Really helps with muscle tension!

Exactly as described, very fast shipping
