I see one person says it takes 20 minutes to warm up, another "at least 30" and a third "2 hours". How long until max temp??

It actually doesn't take too long I say 30 minutes to get real hot but it gets warm around 20

Put the hot water on your towels and wring excess off... Put wet ones on bottom rack and dry on top.... You will have max heat In 30 min this way... Mine is excellent I love it

Depending on how hot your water that you put in it is, anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes and it's still warm, then. Very nice product, we bought two of them. It's very malleable.

Haven't gotten it out to use this year, but I think it was no more than 2 min. Follow the directions that came with! I'm not really crazy about it; it didn't hold the heat very long and didn't really cover where I needed it most (neck).

Generally it only takes a couple minutes to heat up, to get to full heat maybe up to 5 minutes. So if you need it for a specific amount of time that may need to be added to how long you put as the timer.

It should take 10 min. or so. It really depends on a lot of factors. Search youtube there are lots of instructional videos.

It depends on the setting you have it on. The two times I tried to use it, it took around 2 minutes to heat up to medium high.

With the temp turned all the way up... from frozen stage, it took 15-20 mins. Love this machine... quick and easy clean up! It cooks faster and way more than the one we had before... I highly recommend this!

Meh. I found the optimum temperature to cure this - in a reasonable time - very warm. The kind of very warm where you can still keep your fingers on it without too much discomfort. If it's too hot to keep your finger on for more than 3 seconds, your gonna melt the surrounding material. If you can control the heat gun to maintain that level of heat over a 15 to 20 minute period, then you're good. Patience is the key. The heat transfer tool?? A joke. You'd be there for a good 2 hours with it.

Usually 20 minutes but I have noticed the heat intensifies slighty when used numerous times in a row. That's a good thing :D

I usually cook 3 cups and it takes 35 to 40minutes. So I would guess 2 cups might take 30 to 35 minutes.

I don't! I only use it for cold, but I have found that with most things like this, it's a good idea to heat in 25 second increments. Heat 25 seconds, turn the item over. Heat again, turn it over, etc... until it is the temperature you want.

at the highest setting, around 2 hours, but its really hot, so i usually turn down the dial to the middle setting afterwards for another half an hour before dipping the hands... as advised, always check to make sure it is the right temperature (for you) before going all in...

It takes about 20 minutes to reach our desired temperature of 375. It could be overkill, but I really like its robust construction and ease of use.

Mine is in a bedroom, about14 ft. square. It takes around 3 hours to warm it up 20 degrees. I have had no problems.

Good question...it does warm up initially...takes about 45 seconds, I guess, unless you left it "on" constantly.. Then it's good to go for multiple cups and fires them out very fast. So to be clear, it does take longer than 15 seconds, if you just did one cup.

I found the temp to be off on mine. I used a remote thermometer to set the correct temp to 135 for an hour. This worked fine. I did let it warm up for 15 to 20 min

I wish I knew, because this is a common problem. But I have a suggestion. When you are done using it, donot turn it off! Turn it on the coolest setting, zero I think, and let it cool down with air blowing through it. About 45 minutes. Otherwise you will burn up the heating element!
