COMFIER Cordless Heating Pad for Back Pain Relief,Lower Back Massaager with Heat, Heat Pads for Back,Cramps,Lumbar,Abdominal,Leg, Arthritic Pain, Gifts for Mom Dad

I don't have any medical need for this, but rather just got it to keep warm during the colder months, and for me it works very well for this function. I like how it is "cordless" in the sense that it uses a battery and doesn't need to be plugged into a power source while you use it. This is nice, so I am not tied down while using it. Despite having a battery, it is lighter than I expected. The battery also seems to last multiple 30-minutes cycles. My one initial issue is that even when using unplugged, there are cords and internal components (see photos) that pressed up against my ribs. It would be nice if there were added padding to make it more comfortable, but this was an easy fix if I just use the product upside down. To clarify, if you wear the pad with the Comfier logo right side up, the cords face upward and are on the left side. When I flip it and the cords face down on the right side, it doesn't press against anything. The vibration feature is a nice addition and is relaxing. It gets plenty warm for me, especially if I don't wear too many layers underneath it, so I typically wear it between my T-shirt and sweatshirt. Thick layers would also dampen the vibration massage, so it is more effective with less layers underneath it. Overall,D I am very pleased with this purchase.

This is my initial review after 3 weeks of use. Both the Massage and Heat functions are more than adequate. It appears to be made of quality materials. The fit is comfortable, and the additional Extension belt is amazing for those that may need it. Wireless design is great for on the go and not being tethered to an outlet is a huge plus. Fully charged and using both the heat and massage modes together I have been able to get around 3 hours of usage without having to recharge. I am sure that if using only 1 of the 2 modes the fully charged battery would last longer. I have chronic back pain and over the years have used many different back/shoulder heating pads and massagers. Most of the other products I have used must be plugged in during use, allowing use only when near an outlet. Absolutely love the freedom to wear on the go and pleasantly surprised to get about 3 hours of use, before having to recharge. 3 hours give or take a bit, has been the actual usage time when using continuously, with 20 to 30 minutes between each use. Air travel has been near unbearable for the past several years. After a 3 to 4 hour flight, it takes me a few days to recover from the pain of sitting in a tight space without getting up to stretch and move a bit. I am so excited for my next trip as I truly feel that this will be a game changer by adding the massage and heat during my flight. I would highly recommend this product to anyone that requires heat and massage to ease their discomfort and pain. I will try to remember to do another review after a few months of use. At this point (3 weeks in) if I could make any recommendations to the manufacturer, it would be to add some type of pocket or bands to hold the charging cord and the remote while on the move and not charging. Think that I will try to add a peel and stick velcro pad to the remote in order to attach it to the belt when in use and on the move.

Great device. Love that it’s cordless. The combination of heat and vibration is very soothing. The material is soft. It’s bigger than i need but I’m still a fan. Like that it turns off on is own so no overheating. Suggestion for future: Wish it had a smaller extension for the medium size. I needed to wear it on my hip but the extension is way too big and there’s no way to secure the leftover ends. Maybe additional velcro on end would be useful.

My mother has some serious back problems and likes heat, so I thought this would be a good device for her. Particularly because heating pads don’t attach to you and they require an outlet, whereas this is rechargeable and it does a nice vibration massage. Let me give you the basics. This weighs 1.7 pounds and is compact and comes in a nice box with a handle that does not take up much room. It’s sturdy, and it covers a good portion of your back when you have it on. The remote is attached to the belt via a short cord. The power cord is attached to the belt via a short cord into which the charger attaches. You can use it while it charges. It takes more or less 3 hours to charge, and a charge lasts an hour, depending upon which settings you use. There are four motors that vibrate with low and high levels. There are three massage programs. We like the one that’s sort of a mix. You can have heat on or off. The unit comes with an extension that attaches to the unit with velcro to accommodate different sizes. The instruction manual is short and comprehensive. Be sure to read it over for safety instructions, like not using this in moist environments or under covers. It runs for 30 mints and shuts off, and you should not run it longer than that in one session so it does not overheat and so it’s safe for your body. It has an auto shut-off when it overheats. The unit without the extension is suitable for very slender people. My husband is 6’2” and 180 pounds and needs to use the extension. The extension makes it usable for most. I’m a big girl and it works for me. We like to use this sitting on the sofa. I wrap it, then sit, then open and adjust to my liking. When not in use I keep it plugged in so it’s always ready. My mom likes the light massage and the heat while watching TV. It’s well-made and not at all flimsy. The only quibble I have is that I wish the extender had more velcro to fasten down the excess. That would be helpful for folks that just squeeze into needing the extender. That said, the extender is generous and wide and comfortable. We are very happy with this unit. For my mom the fact that it can be used without a cord is a real pleasure. With the nice vibration that just plain feels good this is a big upgrade from heating pads!
