UNCN Long Wide Heating pad for Neck and Shoulders Back 33 * 5.9" microwavable Large Moist Heat Pack Warm hot Compress Neck wrap Weighted Bag Massage Reusable Herbal Nature Calming Portable 1.95Pounds

I’ve been using this heating pad for a couple of weeks now, and it’s quickly become my go-to for neck and shoulder tension. The length is perfect, it drapes comfortably across my shoulders and even down my back, which most other pads I’ve tried can’t cover. I like that it has a bit of weight to it; the gentle pressure feels soothing while the heat works on sore muscles. It heats up evenly in the microwave and stays warm longer than I expected. The fleece cover is soft against the skin, and the herbal scent is calming without being overpowering. Overall, this feels well-made and durable. I’ve noticed real relief from stiffness after long workdays, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a simple, natural way to ease tight muscles.

Delighted with this Neck Heating Pad! The longer length and wider width easily covers the neck and shoulder area. It can be warmed quickly in the microwave. Helpful instructions are given for selecting the correct amount of time to heat for the different microwave wattage and power settings. A great product and easy on the pocketbook!

Overall, this is a quality item. It is soft to the touch and holds heat for a long time. It works well in providing relief for more of an ache than an actual pain. However, there were two things that were not so good. First, upon opening, it has a pretty bad smell. I ended up having to put it outside for two days. Second, heating it in the microwave for 2 minutes (as directed in the instructions) is too long. This made it too hot. I would recommend 90 seconds, maybe 100. What is very nice about this heating pad are the two handles. You can push one through the other and it does a fantastic job of holding the heating pad in place.

The longer shape is great for neck therapy while doing other things. In general, I prefer the ThermiPaq clay pads (they get hotter and they last longer), but the only long one they make has clay beads instead of the "mushy" clay, which isn't as effective. I find this product gives more heat and lasts longer than the clay beads. I experience neck pain and have been using this almost daily for a few weeks. I like it, and it doesn't smell like lavender (or anything else), which is a big plus. A few thoughts: 1. HAVE A MICROWAVE NEARBY. This holds its heat relatively well, but if you want constant *high* heat you'll need to reheat it every 15 minutes or so. 2. USE A PLATE OR CLOTH WHEN HEATING. Don't get it dirty, and especially not greasy. That will create problems when heating. 3. FLIP DURING HEATING. I see complaints about the seeds inside burning. My guess is they ran the microwave for too long and/or overcooked one spot. The manufacturer recommends 60-90 seconds; I rotate it every 30–45 seconds (flipping it 90-180 degrees each time) and go closer to 120 seconds to pack a little more heat in. 4. CHECK IT WHEN HEATING. When you flip it every 30 seconds or so, feel across the surfaces. It takes a couple seconds and if any part of it feels *hot* then you're done. If you're not sure, shake the seeds and feel again. Go easy on it, and don't blame me if you burn it — every microwave is different (I heat this in three different locations with different kinds of microwaves — no problems so far). 5. SHAKE IT BY THE HANDLES. If you wear this around your neck, the seeds will settle on the ends, in which case you won't get as many seeds in the center (neck!) area as you want do the heating. Fold it in half, hold it by both handles, and give it several gentle shakes. The seeds go back to the center and you'll enjoy more of that heat. When, inevitably, I do burn this one out, I'm going to buy another, and another, and another.

Great heating pad for neck and upper back pain. Easy to heat in the microwave. This product maintains its temperature for approx 10-15 minutes before needing to reheat. Moist heat is perfect for sore muscles, definitely recommend.

Feels well made, and heats nicely. Unfortunately, after a week or so of use it started to smell like burnt popcorn. So much so that it would make my clothes smell and my family started asking me not to use it haha.

I heated it up in the microwave for 2 minutes and used on my neck and head. So relaxing and comforting! Excellent quality. Will get daily use. Absolutely love it and the price is fantastic.

I would give this product 5 stars because we bought this to use for neck pain and both my husband and I received relief the first few uses during the month that we purchased it. I was even thinking about buying a second one. However, after only a few uses, it burned up in the microwave, creating a hole in the product where the beads are spilling out. Due to traveling and life stuff, we were just over the time where we couldn’t return it, so it’s a loss for us. It was great while it lasted.

It reaks with smell that took 3 days for smell to go away from my home. Keep away

[Update] Mel and the UNCN team were incredible and provided me a replacement just days after the original product burst. I have had the replacement product now for 3 weeks using constantly every day due to a pinched nerve in my neck. I couldn't recommend the product more, compared to the other options on Amazon, this covers a larger surface area and the handles are also made of soft material. If you are looking for a heated bean bag, and if any issues do arrise, the company really cares for its customers and is responsive so 100% go for it. ------- [Original post] Item arrived well packaged, is soft and comfortable. Used the item 4 or 5 times on the first day, and while it is not as effective as a hot water bottle, is far more convenient and offers comparable heating and a lovely wrap around the neck. The handles are also a nice touch. Sadly the item burst in the microwave upon the 5th or 6th use so had to return the item.

Only issue is that the seeds move around too much to make the heat uniform. Not a major problem.

This is a great heat pad. It's good quality, super soft and comfortable. I warm mine for 1.5 - 1.75 minutes in the microwave. It stays warm for about 10-15 minutes. Very happy with the next day delivery!

I love this neck wrap. Heat it up in the microwave, wrap it around your neck and it stays nice and hot for 10 to 15 minutes, which is optimal for heat. It’s a nice moist heat as well.
