Is this heating pad heavy? I am looking for a weighted heating pad.

I would not call it weighted. It is a little heavier just because it is bigger

Yes, it is and it is wonderful. I have had mine thirty-five years after being hit head on in a car accident. It is just now not heating even though the light goes on. I would absolutely recommend the switch that you control because it puts you to sleep and you can be burned easily if you tape the lever or whatever. I can't see why one would want to buy an additional cover as it comes with a washable one I believe. Though a cover is in the picture, I'm not sure it is in the package. This price is just a little more than I paid for it 35 years ago!

If it is the Thermophore, yes, it is.... They are fantastic - I have had many thru the years and will use nothing else - hope that helps!

I don't know what product it is you're asking about; the email had no picture. I think this is the electrical one I bought and sent back because you had to keep your finger on the on switch all the time! Very inconvenient and unrealistic. I finally bought one that has little beads and heats up in the microwave, and it is heavy.

Yes it is weighted or heavier than the cheap store bought heating pads (which are NOT anything like this moist head pad). Two totally different kinds of pads here. This is for deep, penetrating muscle heat on a physical therapy level not just for an ache or pain. The comment about holding onto the switch, that is for your safety because you hold onto the activate switch until you cannot stand it any hotter. You never want to fall asleep with a heat pad that is on. And the other comment about the bag with beads that heats up in the microwave, that is for an ache or pain once in awhile. Not real deep-seeded, disabling pain... Yes it is weighted or heavier than the cheap store bought heating pads (which are NOT anything like this moist head pad).

Yes it is heavy, don't know the thickness. It does what it is designed to do. Works great glad I purchased it, no regrets.

Seems great to me. This is the best heating pad i have ever had. It has lasted through several years of almost daily use!I had a very expensive one the died on me twice in a row in a few months. The cords are stiff on cheaper models. Not this one.

It is not as heavy as the Wahl trimmer (if you have it). The weight seems to be just there to me since I do not have to put extra pressure on the massager while massaging. I would compare it's weight to the empty ceramic cup.

It is a little heavy but I didn't think about it until trying to answer your question. It's heavier than many hair dryers but not overly heavy.

I am so sorry but the review I wrote should have been for their electric blanket, I entered it on the wrong product. However, I did purchase the heating pad and I do like it very much and there has been no problems with the coils. I've had no problem sleeping on it at all.

Yes it is pretty heavy. The weight will keep your eyes closed. It will also keep them cool to temperatureWill also keep all light out.

It does not feel heavy to me. But if you want to feel more secure about it and if you have a scale at home, put 5 1/2 pounds of books or a binder or similar object on the scale and once you have approximated the weight, try it on your lap and see how it feels. That might help you decide. Good luck.

No it is not too heavy and because the weight is dispersed anyway. Carpet is not a problem. The bottom of the sauna may get somewhat warm but never hot.

This pad will do what you want. As long as it is plugged in it stays on. Only uses 6 watts. It doesn't feel warm when you feel it but when the pet lays on it the heat comes from the weight of the pet laying on it. My cat only weighs 3.5 lbs and when she gets up I can feel the warmth from where she was laying...she loves it!

Weighs l lb 6 oz not including weight of the cord. Feels light to me and asked my wife and she said if feels light to her. If one was a hairdresser and held it all day it might seem heavy - otherwise it should be fine.

I don't think it's weighted, but the fabric is heavy enough that I never find it billowing. But I'm also using it as a liner for a decorative curtain. I shake it off after showering to help discourage mold. So far, I'm very pleased with it - especially for the price.

We use it year round. We have two different brand wool comforters in this house, the one you are asking about here is the least heavy.

Its very light, I don't think it even weights a pound. Breathability comes a much from the sheet and duvet cover; both of mine are 100% cotton.

It weighs very little. Not as heavy as a traditional blanket or comforter. It is just two thin sheets of the print you see with a liner inside of nylon. No weight or substance. It also does not keep you warm by any means. It is pretty That's All... the inside liner likes to bunch up as it is only held on by each corner ONLY.

No - not light weight and not heavy - the weight helps with the pressure in the needed area
