In regards to the back wrap, how long does it stay heated on average?

I'm sorry, but I don't have an answer. I purchased this and other Buddy products for my wife. She uses them for cooling. She like them a lot.

I'm sorry, i not headed this one up. I'm using it for the cold. The heat in my other bed buddy lasts for an hour or so. They heat in the microwave. I'm sorry I'm not much help.

I can't give you an exact answer because I never timed it. I would say between fifteen and twenty minutes or so. Plus you can shake it up and get a few more minutes out of it. I love mine.

Sorry I can't answer the question directly. I needed it as a cold pack after shoulder surgery and it did not stay cold more than 1/2 hour. I can only assume it has the same result for heating. But, with heating you can reheat in a couple of minutes, where-as freezing takes hours.

Are you referring to laying on the heating pad, I can tell you that is how I use this heating pad for my application. I haven't encountered any problems by doing so. I only use it for a 10-15 minute period of time.

For me, its kept things hot for about 3 or so hours, and warm for up to 6 or 7

15-20 minutes. I'm 30, and when I was a college athlete, I had ice wrapped on me with Saran Wrap-that stayed much cooler much longer! But I could also recommend this to my great aunt for her wrist, knowing she wouldn't damage her skin if she fell asleep with it. It's good enough for me, but stays safe for folks with bad circulation.

I don't remember but probably 1.5 to 2 minutes. This was one of the worst products I ever bought. I returned it. Whatever it was filled with was very uncomfortable to lean back on....sharp & poky feeling....and all the stuff shifted down into the quilted areas & did not provide even heat....and it did not stay warm for very long. It was a total waste of money.

Mine stays really toasty for about 30-40 minutes. Then I pop it back in the microwave for 2.5 minutes, and it's good to go again.

How long can I leave this on for at a time? and Does it keep the contents hot/warm?

It seems to stay pretty warm for I would say 30 minutes once it is fully heated up. I typically just leave it plugged in the entire time I am in my vehicle for my pet so he stays plenty warm. Once I shut off my truck - it shuts off but stays warm for a good while.

it depends how long you keep it on. I use it in a fairly large room (12x14x10 height) and put it close to me. In an hour or so (door closed), the room has heated 6 to 8 degrees.

I am usually able to keep the sleeve on for a solid 20 minutes and any longer after that simply depends on the ambient temperature. I am very satisfied with this product!

It keeps warm for atleast 4 hours but it is not 100% leak proof, liquids might spill if there is a lot of movement during transportation.Try to keep it straight.

It gets warm but not too hot if you follow the directions, you don't want to handle it without either a towel or the cover between it and your hand.I just tested mine, following the directions I put in my microwave for 4 min (depends on your microwave) and it got up to about 155. Which is really good for me and my dog. (yes I use it for my feet and back too) I've had it stay warm over 12 hours when it's well insulated. Just make sure they don't chew on it.

This size will stay warm for about 15 minutes when insulated against your skin. Larger packs will stay warmer for longer periods of time.

The only setting this heating pad have is, on and off. The pad stays on, which is a good thing because most of the inexpensive heating pads, shut off in 2 hours. I purchased many for the stray cats, that come into my garage. I kept one for myself, which is in my favorite TV chair. It keeps my back comfortably warm. I have no complaint about this inexpensive, continuous running, comfortably warm heating pad.

Same as loopandwave, I usually use a wrap more than one. 1. because it's expensive, and 2.because it is still warm after one use. My method for "preserving" the heat is simpler than loopandwave's, but the logic is the same. I usually put it in the original package and put it in a zipper bag. As long as you keep "air" out, it should work. Sometimes I carry it in a zipper bag to my office, and when I feel I need it, I just take it out from the zipper bag. It will heat up and stay warm for another couple hours.

Battery power is not recommended as it can only last for about an hour. I plug it directly to wall, in the car, or use a separate USB battery. My 20A battery can last about 3 to 4 hours. It takes a few min to get hot (haven't time it). It is not as hot as other heat wrap but if you wear it outside underwear but inside outerwear, it is about right. My other wrap has a setting that gets too hot but lower setting is not enough.

Not real long. About 45 min. Maybe if you wrap plate in foil it would stay warm longer.
