Is the heating pad wireless or cordless or does it have to be attached to an outlet at all times? Thanks

There is a generously sized cord that needs to be plugged in for the heating pad to work.

This is not cordless and does require plugging in for function. But the cord is pretty long.

It does not have a cord. It has to be hard wired to a 240v connection. That is the down side of this heater for most home owers.

The thermostat is wireless but attached to the wall. You can place it wherever you want without running wires. The portable control allows you to choose to read the temp from wherever you put it

It is electric. It will not work without cord. It's not battery operated. I detach the cord to refill at sink.

It needs to be wired. You could wire a plug end to it with an SO cord if you would like but it needs to be bolted to keep the heater coil stable.

Have you checked the plug going into the heating pad itself? If not, try unplugging and replugging the cord making sure the connection is tight. Then unplug the connections to the outlet and reinsert the plug into the outlet. Turn the pad off then turn on. Hope this helps.

Are you really going to leave it unplugged for long enough to find out? Its just a "nice to have" feature so if you are entertaining on your deck, or, cooking in the kitchen you can be "wireless." But, just keep checking the battery level indicator. When it's low enough - plug it back in.

No it must be plugged into an outlet to work, the Bluetooth connectivity is wireless though.

It is electric and needs an outlet. I would suggest another brand though...

Its wireless, it just needs to be plugged into an electrical outlet. Does not need a phone jack--uses the signal from the home base.

The heating base has a cord, and after heating the pot lifts off the base for pouring. The pot itself is cordless, I suppose (only the base has the cord. The description is a bit confusing!

The heating pad is on when plugged in but does not heat until weight is on it ( when cat or dog is on it). It works well.

About 6 feet from plug to heating pad. I just plug it in to a power strip to give it more length.

Most heating pads have the auto shut-off. But, whether it's an auto shut-off or you shut it off, the control element should go cold. The one in this extra large heating pad, not king size, stays warm even when turned off. Therefore, you cannot leave it plugged in, it has to be unplugged for the control element to cool down. That's a step backward in technology!

Agree with Bruno. I only need to plug it in for power...wifi connection is wireless

It's not wireless. There's one thin line going from the sensor pad to the monitor, but it can be easily hidden. The pad itself works on batteries, so there's not a power cord.

It is electric with. 120 volt A/C cord that is not detachable. It has no battery-operated option of any type.
