do these pads get warm enough??? I bought some from another site and they barely warm the seats
78556
I installed one on the driver's side in a 2010 Ford Focus. Instructions were great and understandable and the installation was straight-forward. The pads get very warm. I like my heated seats to be very warm, but keeping them on the highest setting for a prolonged time was even too hot for my taste. I was very pleased with the product until it stopped working six months after installation.

Sorry it took so long to get back with you, I've replaced one set already for a bad switch, then just about 3 was ago the upper element almost caught fire, and that was in the middle of the seat on the backrest side... The vendor has been great about the first problem but I haven't got with them on the second problem... I installed these in my wife's cobalt and she is not a big person about 120 lbs so they should of held up ! Have to take the seat apart again but I'm not sure whether or not I'm putting this type of heater back in, but to answer your question yes they get nice and warm when they are working correct !

I think that they warm up fairly quickly and get hot enough that I turn them down. Their size is better than other ones that I have had in the past too.

These pads do not turn on and off. You plug them in and they are on until you unplug them. You have no control over the temp. They just stay warm. Not hot enough to burn.

Also, the instructions tell you to put them on a cold wash before using them to avoid the color bleeding onto your seats, but make sure you do not put them in a dryer just let them air dry before fitting them. I had no problems with mine.

As indicated in my review they did not fit my seats - but I have the leather seats which are thick - they may work with cloth seats - I have them on the back seats and the fit were fine - my problem was with the front seat- I ended up getting the slip overs which do not protect as well. Make sure you can return them without a restocking charge if you can not get them to fit -I had a big battle with the seller (which Amazon fixed) -hope this helps. RJD

Not to warm in summer (AC is on) and do use heat pad in winter. Think some heat is absorbed by pad thickness though. Pad makes fitted sheets very tight, worse as they shrink. My pad has been on since I got it, use once a week. No issues with it, sheds a little when new.

It is my understanding that they are not fully heat resistant. That is why I originally ordered them. If you are looking for hot pads, these are not them. Rather, they are mats to set things on with a small measure of heat reisistance.

They will not keep hands comfortably warm if exposed to 10-20 degree weather for more than 15 minutes. I bought them for my wife to use during her commute to and from work. There are stand alone stick on pads called digits that you can apple to any gloves that will do the same thing.

Had the same problem. Brought the pads in every night. Sorry. They look nice but are not great quality.

Normally yes - they are only warm to the touch. But if you leave them on too long they can get hot to the touch. Good luck!

As long as there is a fabric surface covering the seat heater pad then these will work. The side the adhesive is on doesn't matter, either facing up or down. For the time it takes running and hiding your wires you may want to consider taking the extra hour installing the heating pads properly under the seat fabric covering, though.

I haven't had any issues with them they are installed in my pickup and I haven't had any issues with them getting to hot and I've had no complaints for my customers about them getting to hot!~Dubbs~

I can't give a precise response...but I can say that the amount of heat is not very high at all. If you are using them as growing lights in a cool space (as I am), heat pads are the ticket to provide an increased soil temperature.

Yes. On a hot day, you're back will sweat regardless of what they're installed on. I have regular plush fabric and they still cause me to sweat. But I do like them. My only complaint is they fade and stretch over time. But for the price, it is a great product. For the cleanest looking application, I would remove the head rests, install the covers without the headrests, cut small holes in the top for the headrest bars, the put the headrests over the covers. Looks more clean and the covers last longer.

Best to say they are a second skin. We have had 26 degree temps, but I haven't been out for more than 30 min. They don't make you warm & fuzzy, you would need heavier thermals. I find I can wear them even to work, helping get to & from the car & not overheating me while indoors. Hope that answers the question.
