Are the controllers really 20 heat settings and preheat and auto off?

Yes they really have 20 heat settings auto turn off and preheat. I have two of them and they are wonderful for winter time. About 15 min before I'm ready for bed I turn it on preheat and when you get under the covers it's so nice and toasty. :) I always have mine on 1 or 2 all night but I have tried the 15-20 setting just to see what would happen and it sure gets hot! I tried the auto when I first got it and I would still sleep warm throughout the night but I would want it back on for my toes. I love the comforter it works wonders. Makes you wanna sleep all day!

I purchased this at end of the season and have not used it yet. So I do not know(or remember) how many settings the controllers have. Sorry.

Yes these are programmable to whatever temp you want up to the max setting in either Celsius or Fahrenheit. The directions are kind of hard to follow though.

I have used many different controllers. This is the only one that thinks and is adaptable to all configurations. also the factory will help call them.They adjusted one for me so it resets to my desired temp.

There are two controllers. They work pretty well. Fun fact: we just put ours back on our bed for the cold season coming up and realized that we had set the controllers on the wrong side. My side was really cold and hers was really hot. I kept turning mine up and it wouldn't get any warmer and she kept trying to turn hers off and couldn't get it any cooler. Glad we figured that out :)Seriously though, we love this thing. We live in Maine along the coast, and being able to turn this on an hour before we go to bed and find a toasty mattress instead of a block of ice is amazing.

Yes, this is thermostatically controlled with hi and low fan speeds. These are GREAT little heaters. The other one I have is 20 years old. It's not digital like this one but looks the same otherwise. Go for it!

Yes you can set different heat levels not a typical thermostat to set it at a specific temperature

It has a preheat. It also has a auto shut-off after 10 hours. I have mine pre-set. But I do shut it down to low at lights out.

yes, on the power level side of the controls, there is off, then fan, then 1 for low power heat, and 2 for high power heat. If you turn it to fan, you do not get heat. Just fan.

Don't think so. It has a heat - off - cool switch, a fan - auto switch and an analog temperature setting.

Yes. If you check the control unit from time to time you'll see it's sometimes hot and sometimes just a little warm. This is how they work...when they work. You'll be fine!

You can actually program it to do either one. There's a setting in the back. I found this out by accident when I was wondering why the heat kept starting a few minutes early!

Not exactly. The controls are manual. There are three power options. One is no heat with the fire look only. Then there's a low heat setting and a high heat setting. The unit claims if it overheats, it will shut off automatically. However, you can't set a timer or anything. I have never had it shut off and I run mine all the time, though I have never run it on high.

N0 -Besides the usual On and Off - it only has 3 settings :High-Low and Warm. It does take about 5 minutes to heat up if you start on "high" I don't know how long it takes to heat up on the low setting as I have never tried.But No it is NOT programmable.

#8 is the highest and now the remote control only allows#6 and no higher. It is a nice heating pad despite this problem. I did not program it for everything so I cannot answer honestly about automatic turn off, etc. Mine is never on more than 30 min. at a time.

The pad is set for a certain max temp but the controller is basically a rheostat (dimmer switch) that reduces the amount of current going to the pad.

No, not automatically. There are "high", "low", and "keep warm" settings, but they must be changed manually.

No.Button on outside of unit is used to change temperature.This is done after using internal switch to take unit off of factory set (120)
