I am interested in this heating pad for my back. Is it comforable to lay on or is it lumpy?

Comfortable, I use mine almost every night!..I actually bought this for my right arm, which was basically immobile, after one use I regained mobilitiy, and continue to use it, both on my back & on my arm!

I found this pad quite comfortable and helpful. I use it in a sitting position so I don't put my full weight on it, however. Good luck.

I do not lay on mine too often. I use it on my back while sitting in a chair most times but sometimes I recline in the chair. That is the only time I lay on mine. I am using it right now. It is giving me such wonderful penetrating warmth.

I see I did not completely answer your question about lumps. It is not lumpy, however there are the jade discs so it is not fluffy. Just firm I guess is a way to describe it. There are layers within the pad as well. It is terrific to use. The deep heat is so restorative. Hope this helps you decide to get your own Healing Pad.

It sleeps a little warm but not like the old type which had no gel or air holes and was really warm to sleep on. Yes it will help with back pain if you put this topper on your mattress, it does for me. Mike

It is soft, but has wires in it like an electric blanket. I would be uncomfortable laying one it. I am not using it because it does not get warm enough for me.

No, not particularly firm. It is NOT like TempurPedic...that is, you almost feel like you are enveloped in it.

well, when my husband and i first laid down, it was awesome! and it was great when lying on my back and watching tv....but i think it was just too soft, BUT - that being said, we have a tempurpedic mattress already. so i think if it was on a regular mattress, it would have been perfect - but the mushy top with the mushy tempurpedic just didn't work.

I lean against my pillows sitting in bed with my weight against it and that's not a problem. It's well made. The heat can be adjusted, along with the time the heating pad runs, so those two features may work in your favor. You can run it at low heat for a short period of time. Hope this helps.

Its plush... not fluffy not dense. It has enough give to be comfortable but not so much you sink into it. Hope it works for you. This is a tide me over till I can get a great mattress. One month down and still working.

My children all love to lay on it. It is lumpy and may give them some sensory input.

it is soft , a sheet of memory foam where you sink in. I do not like the feel and I got a backache. Since I put a sheet of Latex foam over the memory foam, it feels better. The topper is nice and soft but does not stay in place and has to be readjusted daily. I would not buy it again.

It is soft but not too soft . I find that it is just the perfect comfort for me. It gives some when you lay on it. But not to the point where you are unable to move, it other words you don't feel like you fell in a massive hole and can't get out! Lol! But it is just the right amount of comfort!

It is very dense. My mother has a top-of-the-line Tempurpedic bed and this mattress topper feels about as dense. It's on the bed in our guest room and the two people who have slept on it really liked it. If you need a firm sleeping surface, I would definitely recommend it.

I really didn't notice a 'warming' sensation.,..but I did notice the thickness gave some cushioning on the bed, which was what I was looking for. I think it would be safe to say, it doesn't really keep you warm, more or less just comfortable

I had thought about a heating pad too - maybe on a low setting. There is a nice thick fluffy cushion inside that you can take out to wash. The underneath is not plastic - I'm not sure what it is. It looks like fabric but feels kind of paper-y. Just buy it and return if you don't like it. For $20 it's a pretty good deal.

It is not a solid super firm foam, but rather a loose foam but not lumpy. It maintains firmness for my heavy beagle and I dont need to readjust the foam. It is about 6 inches thick. I felt it was a good buy for the money

As far as I know all heating pads tell you not to lie on them. I haven't let that stop me with any I have ever owned. Just pay attention to the heat setting and how long you lay on it. Also, if you have a medical condition where heat may cause problems, you want to be very careful.

It's 2 inches of polyester fill. We have a regular spring mattress and it seemed pretty hard but when this is on it, it lets you sink in a little so I'd say it's comfy. It would flatten over time just fluff it a little and you are okay. It's like sinking into a pillow :) I would recommend it especially based on the price, good deal. Hope that helps!

It is comfortably thick enough for me. I bought it for the cooling and it does seem to help! The pad is not cold but the heat seems to go down and stay at a normal temp. Good luck. A,
