Where are the heating pads located? Just at the center on the backrest or all over, both on the bottom and around the back?

The heat is just at the center (lower back) where you see the red spot. All the other spots you see are for vibration only. James

Lower Center of the back, as are most heated car seats. It's great for the lumbar area and the heat combined with the vibrating massage is perfect for those long trips.

My power plug IS at the top of the bed; the wires which control the temp plug in at the bottom... Biggest issue I have is that the heat control for each side barely reaches the side of the bed...and is forever getting pulled to the floor. I am NOT pleased with my sunbean pad!

Sorry, I never noticed a heat sensor, it could be on the Pad, I just never went to look to feel for it. I just go by the the arrows to turn the heat up or down. I usually have it on 3 or 4 and thats a nice setting for me. I am very satisfied with this product

3 heat settings plus off. So...low, med, high. I found the low setting is hot enough. Unfortunately within 24 hours the light on the control stopped working. This is dangerous as could be inadvertently be left on as no timer and cut off switch on this pad. I now keep it as a backup and bought a different make with a timer! I consider this pad very dangerous as if it is left on it could burn someone who did not have the mobility to turn it off. Hope this helps.

This review is from: Trillium TWI-1603 12V Heated Back and Bottom Seat Cushion (Automotive)"Great heating seat although the cord is on the left side of the seat which is not good for the driver's seat.

They are at the top and they are very annoying. The slippery thin material that pulls over the mattress sides keeps stretching and the plugs move, so we end up sleeping on the plugs. Our mattress is 12" deep, but I don't think the pad would stay put unless you have a very, very deep mattress. The unit heats well, so I wish they had put the plugs at the bottom or made the side parts of a less slippery fabric with a tighter elastic edge.

The heating pad is large but flexible and has a Velcro strap that could hold it around your knees while sitting. I use it for my back and have not tried it on knees but I think it would work. It has a really good heat and time control. My older ones only had an off/on switch. I use mine every day and am very happy with it.

I fell and had back pain, but when I arrived in Europe it was better so I did not use the heating pad. Sorry I cannot answer the question.

The heated portion is only lower back and thighs. The vibration seems to cover the mid part of the upper back on the shoulder blades. As said previously, if it doesn't satisfy you, you can return it.

The heating pad is a U shape pad. Don't think it will stay wrapped around the neck.

The heating seems to go to the end of the pad, but in a Toyota Camry, the pad doesn't quite go to the end of the seat, perhaps 2-3 inches from the end of the seat.

There's a space between the grate at the top of the diffuser and the heating element. You can slide the pad right in from the side and it should rest right on top of the heating element.

Rear as shown in the notes - they should put it in the description as the "notes" area isn't very obvious: "Notes: Rear Disc Pads, COMFORTLINE - GLI - HIGHLINE - S - SE - SEL - TDI - TRENDLINE - WOLFSBURG EDITION - QUIETCAST"

This pad plugs in and has a long cord. The cord can detach from the pad near your waist so if you need to move around, you don't have to keep removing the pad--just disconnect & go. When you return, plug back in & it will heat again. I use my pad daily & they last between 12 to 18 months. Hope this helps!

ON BOTTOM FOR LUMBAR SUPPORT. bought a different one that was less firm and had elastic to slide over the chair but it wasn't as satisfactory

That sucks that your cooling pad is having issues, too. To be honest, I don't know where you can fix it with the warranty. I still place my laptop on top of the pad to give it a little better circulation, but I'm planning on buying a different pad in the future. I'm sorry I couldn't be any better help.

No. It's there for safety reasons and as a constant user of heating pads I wouldn't want that to change. There's too much of a risk. My mom was in the hospital and needed to use a heating pad (not this one). No one checked on her and she ended up with 3rd degree burns. This is going back 25 years where no one thought about the risk factors. Had the heating pad they gave her had a shut off feature this never would have happened to her.
