I have the Soft-heat microfleece so cannot describe the difference but have been happy with my purchase; this is the 3rd winter using it. It is very lightweight and soft and heats quickly. I do sandwich it between another blanket and a comforter for strength so that we don't pull on it--I suspect this one might be more tear-resistant. Some have complained the wires of the one I have are in a tissue-like layer so I have been careful to not pull on it by itself. When I saw this ribbed one I wondered if this was the manufacturer's answer to that problem--with stronger exterior fabric to support the wires? Not sure but I can say I am happy so far with the Soft heat micro-fleece.

I agree with a prior answer that the primary difference is the fabric itself. The Ultra Micro Plush is knitted with a triple rib pattern that is more attractive and the Luxury microfleece is 'plush' and smooth. I bought the Ultra with the ribbed pattern as a gift for a relative. I felt it looked more expensive and would probably retain its looks longer than the smooth 'plush'.

I'm sorry I can't help with that one as I have never seen the luxury microfleece. Almost sound like the same thing. I'm sorry I can't help. I didn't want to just ignore your question.

I think the cheaper one is smooth fleece and the higher one is ribbed fleece. I have the ribbed. It's very plush and warm. Hardly need to turn on the heat. The heat is very subtle no hot spots.

Even though I didn't help you much, I can tell you this:I agree with the other two answers as well, and this for me and my wife has been a superb blanket. It is very, very soft and warms very well and evenly-no hot or cold spots. I honestly don't think you can go wrong.

I would order the Cali king . They have changed them since I ordered my mothers. Her was soft and not as pokey as everyone is complaining about. Hers was more like the full down version I have. Didn't have the problems like mega feathers and getting poked all the time. I do advise checking jc penny's sometimes they have the full down comforters on sale less then $80 around this time of year. I also recommend the cover for them as it is natural for the feathers to come out and this helps with getting poked , keeping feathers & down out of your nose ( it happens) an keeps you comforter cleaner. Just was the cover instead of the comforter, because most washers won't hold the king or Cali king and its usually cheaper to buy a new one instead of taking it to the cleaners. I hope I've answered your question!

The firmness/hardness of the pillow. Gentle is softer and standard is rather firm. I bought standard and found it to be considerably firmer than my tempurpedic and so did not like it at all. I should have purchased the gentle.

Pro Soft is definitely softer. It works well if you need comfort, and are willing to change liner more often because it comes loose sooner in my experience. I've used both.

I cannot see any difference between the two models. My SoftHeat Ultra Back Wrap actually has the words "Kaz UL Listed" stamped on one side of it. I don't know why there's a difference in price because it looks like they both come from Kaz. Hope this helps. ;-)

This shouldn't be a problem if you have AC. As long as you don't let the room get too warm, the baby will be fine. I would go with the cotton one over the microfleece one though, it will breathe better.

I have used both and had the more expensive one first. It did not heat the lotion as well and if you used more than a few pumps it was cold. It quit working about a year after purchase which prompted me to purchase the lower priced model when I replaced. The lower priced one seems to be much better and keeps all the lotion nice and warm. It is easier to clean and overall I like it better. I use mine in my massage therapy practice so it gets a good workout each day. Overall I am happier with the less expensive model.

I would certainly recommend the hard surface (HS) version over the soft for many reasons. You will actually get the same amount of padding on the bottom of the HS as you would on the soft, as you can see in a couple of the pictures. The HS version is shaped as a wedge, and has what is essentially a rear exhaust instead of blowing hot air down towards your legs as the soft version does. The HS also has raised bezel to help stabilize your laptop while the soft version has absolutely no mechanism to keep your laptop in place. Hope this helps, and good luck with the purchase :) I would certainly recommend the hard surface (HS) version over the soft for many reasons.

Apparently one is softer. The blue is, but it is way to hard for me. I can't use it at all. It is only $40.

I don't really know what micro-plush is... but the material is a very fine texture, almost like an Egyptian Cotton high thread count sheet. It's soft and makes a really nice cover. I'd surely buy another one if necessary!

I got the ultra-plush soft mattress and I would not recommend it. It is too too soft and after 9 months, we can't sleep on it anymore.

I returned it. I wouldn't recommend it. If you are looking for a heating pad - go with the original . There is also a "shawl" size heating pad that is nice - its kinda like a blanket.

I would skip the micro. The only real difference is that the brake on the micro is made of plastic. It's much more durable on this one. My son was three when he got this and did wonderfully on this one. Two years later it's still his favorite thing to ride.

The ultra is softer with a little better absorbency This one kind of feels and smells like cardboard but it's all natural so better for not having any chemicals added. I use both and even mix them sometimes (:

Hi, There I honestly don't know whether it is cashmere or not, it says that it is cashmere on it, it is very soft, My bedroom in my apartment runs pretty cold are 62 degrees and i sleep with a down comforter as well as a regular comforter and do not wake up hot or sweating I wake pretty comfortable so I would say that it does not make it hotter to sleep by a noticeable amount, but I have not had it for summer months LUCID does sell one that is labeled bamboo covered one, I love mine so much that my mother just purchased one for her self, I have mine covered with a fitted sheet and then i kind sized minky blacked from northpoint which is what I sleep on top of hope this was helpful.

Hello, I am happy to respond ... The electric spa wrap is smaller than an electric blanket. I love mine as I use it all the time. It is way better than a heating pad as it many ways to place it on the body and wrap your body in it. I hope this helps answer your question.

We don't think it retain heat any more or less than others we have had. We live in Florida and sleep with AC on 75 every night. My husband is a big man and this one gives him the support he was looking for. I personally like a softer feel. I would not buy this again.
