if I like cold and only the other 1/2 is turned on -will it make my side of the bed warm?

Not due to heater, but I have to say that the material made me hot. I put it on the bed this year without plugging it in because the plushness of the pad feels so nice, but I woke up with whatever side was making contact with the bed all sweaty. This happened every night for a week before I took it off and then I didn't sweat anymore. It is really plush and nice, but I guess it doesn't breathe very well. Everyone is different though, and this is just my experience. It might be fine for you.

You can feel the wires, but not enough to be bothersome. You can however really feel where it plugs in at the foot of the bed. I thought it would be on the side of the mattress at the foot, but it's not. It's in the middle of the foot on top. So you can feel that, but again, it hasn't ever bothered me. (And I'm really anal about having perfectly smooth sheets!) The whole bed gets warm, so there aren't really any cold zones. I hope this helped!

Never turn mine off once it is cold enough to turn on... but it is on a large room, and only puts a small dent in the chill.

No, I do not feel hotter but a little warmer. It gives a softer feel when sleeping.

You may but have in mind that the turn-on switch is located in the opposite side of the junction box. If you keep the warmer on all the time it won't Make any difference.

It does get warm, but I'm always cold so this works for me. Having the mattress pad over it does help.

Absolutely. My husband rarely has his side on but mine is on low all night and it's more than warm enough even for me who is always cold.

I really cannot answer the question, we have had the coldest couple months here in years, My primary heat is all electric heat pump, so I was expecting a huge bill adding the heater also, I ran it quite a few days without turning it off, my bill was lower than I expected it to be, and it is a warmer heat than the heat pump

It is VERY warm, that's actually one thing I definitely like about it. Unfortunately my husband finds it to be too hot, so that combined with the somewhat scratchy feel of it is what's kept us from using it regularly. It's basically for decoration in our room at this point when we want to make the bed up nicely. But yes, it's definitely warm!

It's warm, as it's several layers thick. I can't say that it has been too warm, but I do tend to keep my bedroom on the cool side.

I can't say that it actually makes you cooler, but it definitely counteracts the heating effect of the top layer of our mattress. It's more like it makes you feel comfortably neutral, if that makes sense.

Yes it does provide adequate warmth. If you position the body close to this lamp and turn it on full power it will be too hot.

I like to be warm but haven't noticed the matress changing anything. But since I don't mind heat if it warms up I might not notice. The review I read said that was a reason to get the higher-end "temperpedic" type mattress but I haven't noticed.

That depends on your level of comfort. It works for me because I get hot at night but if you are always cold it will probably not be warm enough.

No, it is just a heater, but if you can't find a combo that is within budget this guy works wonders. I can use it to heat a decently sized space though it would better if the space has a door. On the winter I turn it on thirty minutes before bed and close the bedroom door and when I walk into my bedroom it's warm and the sheets are heated through.

Yes it does!!! Because I turn it on 1-2 hours before I get into bed, it shuts off before I get up in the morning. The bed is still cozy and warm. I love this feature! I will mention that the bed warmth is quicker to accumulate beneath with the weight of blankets upon the heating pad.

There is an on off switch on the side but it is nice to leave it on because it takes about five minutes to heat up and sometimes you can't wait. I have had mine for two years and in the winter it is on all the time. It doesn't use much electricity and it feels great in the middle of the night when you have to go. One of the better purchases I have made for keeping warm.
