I love this mattress pad!

My husband and I have an adjustable split king bed he has ALS, and needs the adjustments to assist with transferring in and out of bed and helping to make breathing easier... He is alway hot, and I am always cold. It is difficult to find things that fit our bed we need twin XL fitted sheets, and Cal. king blankets.. This twin XL mattress pad is perfect! I have it on my half of the bed husband doesn't need the heat at all. I set it on high about 5 minutes before getting into bed, then turn it all the way down to low or level 2 for a warm and toasty night. It has transformed my night experience!

It heats up quickly and stays very warm for 10 hours. I enjoy getting into a warm bed and helps calm me down after a long day.

If you have a twin XL-sized bed and want warmth, this is the pad to have. It fits a Twin XL bed perfectly and would fit a VERY deep mattress, if need be. The one thing I do not like is that the skirt around the sides is a pretty flimsy material, but since I plan on using another mattress pad over this one, to pad the wires more and keep it clean, I won't be removing/washing it too often, as I would the regular mattress pad. I pre-heat the bed on high, for a few minutes and then lower the temp to low(1) or 2, which I find to be perfectly warm all night long. You can feel the wires some through the pad, but I solved this problem by placing my regular mattress pad over this one. The included controller looks nothing like the one in the picture. So far, no durability issues. I will update, if I have any.

Honest reviews on Sunbeam Twin XL Heated Mattress Pad

This mattress pad is great! We replaced another older heated mattress pad and this new one gets warm pretty fast within 5-10 minutes and can get almost too hot if it's left on High. It's so nice to get into a warm, toasty bed. This Sunbeam pad is highly recommended compared to other brands.

Ordered this mattress pad to put on our split-king Sleep Number Bed. The twin-XL fits each mattress well and quality is very good. Warms quickly and keeps you nice and toasty! Auto shut-off is a nice feature. Definitely worth the price.

Smaller than thought, but works well. A little noisy. Use in bedroom in winter. Helps keep room warmer than the rest of the house. Pretty good on energy consumption. Well made. Sturdy construction. Nice carry handle. If tilted over, automatically shuts down. Overall a good buy. Would recommend.

This unit is supposed to be able to cool 550 sq ft but can't get my ~450 sq ft space down past 75, even at night when everything has cooled down outside! I'd be better off opening my window and putting the fan back in. Needless to say I am returning this and digging my old, heavy window air conditioner out of storage that actually works.

The unit came in and the packaging was not damaged, however, the exhaust piece that goes in the window was already broken. Apparently from the factory. That was the least of the problems come to find out.

I get home and hear a noise that sounds as if a chainsaw is battling a garbage disposal in the house. I ask the girlfriend what that noise is, but she can't hear me becasue the noise is that loud. It was ridiculous. The air coming from the unit was cold, but the noise was unbearable. There is no possible way people could use this machine at night while attempting to sleep without using earplugs.

We already have a LG portable air conditioner and it sounds like a baby sleeping compared to the Honeywell unit.

To find out if the machine was supposed to make that racket, I emailed the company and have yet to hear anything back.

I rarely return anything, chalking most bad purchases up to a learning experience, however, this machine is no bueno.

Didn't cool well at all! Tried it for 3 days, finally around 2am it would get down to 76 degrees, but then as the day got hotter, so did the room, during the day, it would only cool to 85! Very disappointed, read reviews before I bought and they all seemed positive, even spoke with Honeywell wondering if I had a lemon, they said very unlikely, so I returned it.

I've had this a/c unit since may-2013, it is almost august-2013.

I don't usually review stuff but, I feel this a/c is getting unfairly treated.

the first day I had that same problem with water getting everywhere, I wasn't sure why there was so much especially when most of the water was supposed to be vented out in the exhaust supposedly. Second I had the problem with the temperature not really going below a certain temperature.

So, after messing with the control's, and failing. I decided to consult the manual, it told me that all I had to do was make sure it was on the little ice icon, not on the one it was originally defaulted to. I honestly thought this was the correct setting in the first place, but I guess I never gave it chance. This solved both my temperature issue and my water issue. I don't have to put any kind of drain on my a/c and at night it has easily hit 72 ( had it set on 71). It also says that on the fan setting it acts like a dehumidifier and that is when the reservoir fill and that is when you need to add your little drain pipe(this was the setting it was set on). I forget there is like two more settings.

There is one other thing with this a/c and pretty much all other portables that I've seen, even though they vent out most of the moisture, some times depending on how humid it gets you might need to empty out the top reservoir( I think there is some warning that lets you know though). This has never happened to me and I live in Houston, Texas it is extremely humid, with average humidity levels sitting around 78 and above and temperature that have hit 104 degrees F.

Last thing about portable a/c's is on average they cool about 100 sqft. less than window units(as per btu). ( like a 14000 btu window unit will cool about 550 sqft. so a 14000 btu portable unit will cool 450 sqft.) so when you going to buy a portable unit keep that in mind.

Ok so this air conditioner... heard a lot of bad things about it. This was AFTER we bought it, and then right when we got it 2 days later we started seeing bad reviews on it. Now then onto the review. First day owning this we had some problems. First of all, it is true that it wouldn't go past 75 degrees. (we waited for like 3 hours and it was still stuck at 75.)HOWEVER we had a stroke of genious. We put a small square board under the AC,and within 2 hours it was down to almost 70 degrees from 80 HUGE improvement. Second of all we did have a problem with water leaking everywhere... HOWEVER this also had a simple solution my father took out a black cap in the lower back of the AC and placed a tube in it to vent the water. water goes into a jug... PROBLEM SOLVED no water leaking all over the wooden board. There is VERY little water in the jug (infact checking it now there is NO water anywhere in the jug, on the carpet, OR on the board. I say if your having problems with it and you have a carpet floor get a square board, and place the board under the AC. You'll see an improvement in your AC cooling productivity. I hope this helped many of you with the same problem we have.

This big gizmo phase couples nothing at all. It's easy to install at the clothes dryer, and it should work there. But it does not. Returned it.

This item did not work for our home's X10 application. We previously had a repeater/coupler on our dryer and all the X10 signals would go across the two legs of our home. We changed our dryer to a 4 prong and the old repeater/coupler could not be used anymore. We purchased this phase coupler for our range and it would not repeat the X10 signals across the two phases in our home. We ended up returning this unit and purchasing a 4 prong repeater/coupler again for our dryer. Now, our X10 signals are reliable again across the home. It may work for you, but didn't for us.

I bought this so the two phases would be coupled in order to use my X10 controlling system. It functioned for 2 days then stopped working, without explanation. I returned it as the two phases were, in the end, not coupled for my purposes. Returned it.

This thing works great. Before installing, some of my X10 modules didn't work on certain circuits in my house. When leaving on long trips I had to run extension cords to some lamps in different rooms so as to give the house a lived in look. Now all those problems are gone, and what an easy install.

The photos make this fireplace look MUCH more attractive than it actually is. The outside is very nice but the flame pattern is not even close to the photos.

The flames actually only go up about 4 inches from the bottom and are very hard to see, even in low lighting. As a matter of fact the reflection off the bottom shelf is easier to see than the actual flame pattern itself. And this reflection would disappear as soon as you placed the stones on the shelf, which I will not be doing because I am packing this thing up and sending it back asap.

Also the photos make the unit look much more "flush mounted" than is possible. Looking at the photos you see a SMALL shadow around the outside lip of the unit, but all together this thing sticks out from the wall over 6 inches. And you can't set it into the wall because it vents to the sides and top so it would be a fire hazard.

This unit is especially disappointing because we have two other electric fireplaces in the house already, and we are VERY happy with those! The other units are the free standing kind built into fireplace surrounds.

The second star is only because the unit is very attractive from the front, but in the "off" position!

We were pleased with this product. We bought it for our bedroom and it puts off a nice ambiance. It looks just as it does in the picture, but I do agree it sticks out a little bit further than expected. We initially thought we would recess it in the wall, but the heater blows out the top so that is out of the question. It would not prevent me from buying it again.

It doesn't put off a ton of heat, but it will get the room (with the door closed) cozy after it's on a bit. The flames are sufficient. It comes with a remote control which can be used to dim the flames or make them brighter.

I would purchase this product again. It would be perfect for a 3 seasons room or bathroom with soaking tub.

In my effort to find an attractive "space heater" for my kitchen I found this item. I do like it and it is serving its purpose. That said, I found it a little beat up upon arrival but something I could repair myself. Secondly, the unit really needs to be placed on a wall that is only seen from the front side as it protrudes a bit from the wall which makes it unattractive if you enter the room seeing if from a profile. My remedy since I did not have a wall as described was to corner it. I built a corner support unit so it is properly suspended off the floor. I think they should offer one for purchase for those consumers who would like this but need to corner it.

This is suitable for heating your personal space when it isn't practical to heat a large area. I'm using it in my unheated garage to make myself comfortable enough to work. This heater is not for heating whole rooms.

The heater gets hot almost instantaneously and cools down quickly once shut off. You must keep combustibles away from it! For some peace of mind, it shuts off if tipped or even picked up. Still, you need to be careful.

Four stars instead of five because you cannot use this on your work surface and tilt down towards your hands. However, when placed on an object at your side at about hip height, the angle of the heater does perfectly warm your mid and upper body.

gets really hot, but does not heat a room only the space that is in front of the light..disappointing. Thiis is not for whole room heating, just personlal space heating.

We have a forced air heating system which makes for a dusty home. I purchased these vent filters in hopes they would reduce the dust flying around and settling on furniture. We installed them a month ago and I really notice the difference in the amount of dust on shelves, dressers, etc. Before the filters I needed to dust every day (which I couldn't do) to keep stuff from looking dusty. Now I can do a normal once a week dusting and even then there's not much dust. These filters work.

We recently had a new baby so I wanted to find something that would filter any lingering dust in the vents in the house. My husband was really skeptical, but after a little persuasion (aka nagging) he put them in the registers. The first thing we noticed is that it decreases the amount of heat coming into the room so we had to adjust the thermostat to maintain the 72 degrees we're used to. After three months my husband went to change the filters as well as the furnace filter and was no longer a skeptic. It was amazing how much dust these filters had trapped. We now change these every three months and every one breathes a little better without the extra dust lingering in the air. I highly recommend this product especially to anyone who is waking up a little congested as it defintely helps!

Just another way to add protection. Also great for renters. Moving into a new place usually the maintenance crew doesnt care about the place since they dont own it. They let all sort of junk fall into the vents. Then you move in and the air is push up right through all the junk. I say a must have for clean living.

I bought one of these close to ten years ago and it's still going strong, though I've taken it on three cross-country trips, countless weekend getaways and even to Guatemala.

Why? First, I don't like using hotel/motel coffee units -who knows how clean their innards are? This holds more liquid, is easy to clean, and I know where it's been!

Second, it's useful for more than just heating water. I once took my daughter to a nice Disneyland hotel for four days, and did all our cooking in this little pot because food was so pricey. I heated soup, ramen, veggies, all kinds of things... and we actually ate well (though simply) the whole time.

Other reviewers have noted that it doesn't have auto shut-off. That's a good point, and it's a bit of a pain, particularly when you're as forgetful as I am. But the water always boils loudly enough that I hear it. Could be a problem in everyday use if you are wandering from room to room; fine for a motel.

The flip side is being able to adjust the heat level, which I don't think you could do if the unit shut off automatically. I've found that VERY handy for things that need a gentle heat, and use that feature a lot.

Power cord is frustratingly short, but necessarily so for safety reasons.

Naturally, anything that holds 32 oz. of water is a little bulky, but when I put it in my suitcase I just jam socks and breakables into it, so it ends up taking less room than you'd think. You can snap the top off, which is also a help when packing it. It's fairly lightweight.

The reason I'm back at this page is that my daughter just went to college and took the pot with her. I need a replacement for my travels without her! I was amazed to find the same pot is still being sold after all these years. That's probably a good sign about its quality in an era when things get redesigned every year.

At this price, if it lasted a year or two of steady use, I think I'd still be happy.

At my workplace we have no hot water dispenser. Before this, I was resorting to microwaving a mug of hot water. I was recommended this device as a tool for shaving, but I found that it got the water a little too hot for my shaving needs. I took it into work and have been loving the thing ever since. In the time it takes me to clean a spoon in the sink and get yogurt out of the fridge, the water is hot enough for tea. The exterior stays quite cool and can be picked up and touched immediately even when the water inside is scalding hot. I've even boiled milk, water, and black tea together in this unit without problems. Cleans quite easily.

What a well-spent $12 this has turned out to be.

I love this little pot! It boils water and cooks everything very fast!! I have one at home and one for my travels. This little hot pot is terrific when one is away from home and has no kitchen. The non-stick bottom makes this pot a breeze to clean up! I have dietary restrictions and can not go out and "grab a bite" like most other people, when I am not near my house. I especially recommend this pot to anyone who may suffer the same problem as me. I would be lost without this pot, when I need to be away from home. :-)

Honest reviews on Rival 4071-WN 32-Ounce Hot Pot Express, White

I bought two of these for 8.99 on amazon and generally, they are OK. I drink a lot of green tea, and by reading the description, I thought it kept your water at a desired temp/setting. It seems it keeps hot by cycling on and off, which is ok, but your water may not be the same temperature, which is important if you are making green tea. Also, I left some water in it and the next day there was a large rust stain. It easily washed off, but I didnt particularly like the idea of drinking rusty water. The high setting really boils hard, and the low setting keeps the water warm. Generally, I got my 9 dollars worth

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Rival 4071-WN 32-Ounce Hot Pot Express, White

Having one through all the reviews, I'd discovered why I feel so many people have given this hot pot 5 star reviews. Most of then are years old, stemming from 2003, etc. The reviews that are more recent are from people saying that they've had their Rival pot for years.

It appears that many of the design problems are in more recent models (from the past few years) the rust, the plastic taste, the leaking....

It is entirely possible that this Rival pot used to be of amazing quality and incredibly durable, but you know what they say... Some things ain't what they used to be.

This little heater works quite well. The snap on feet made it very easy to install no tools required. The adjustable thermostatic also works well (unlike some others I have tried). It is a simple dial control which made it perfect for my older people. I haven't yet fully tested the high heat setting, but on the low setting, it kept my 10 x 14 foot room quite comfortable. Best part of the heater is that It makes no noise that I have been able to tell, except a very slight click when the heater turns on at the thermostat setting.

I had previously given this heater a great review. however, it worked great for two months, then the on/off switch broke. woke up in the middle of the night, freezing. even when I managed to turn it on, it would switch off.

I had bought the heater directly from the company website. the company refused to pay for shipping me a replacement. then they wanted me to pay the shipping back to them if they gave me a refund. after a few phone calls and the supervisor not bothering to give me a requested call back, I got them to send me a label for sending the unit back. and they gave me a refund.

so, the heater gets one star and the company gets one star. its unfortunate, but, they didn't care that the unit broke after only two months. so, will never use the company again.

Customer Ratings: 5 stars

For three years we have had two of these Aube 7-day units controlling two zones of radiant heat from an oil-fired boiler. We have been very happy with their trouble-free operation. I later purchased another brand that was on sale but found it was not as convenient as the two Aube units I was using. I then decided to purchase a third Aube TH140-28-01 thermostat, and I again find it the easiest to program and use, and again it is a thermostat that evenly controls the room temperature. This new Aube unit is working adjacent to another radiant zone's manual thermostat and is connected to an LPG 3-sided glassed fireplace. We keep the radiant zone at 67F. The digital thermostat comes on at 6 AM abd warms the open living area and kitchen zone to 72F and maintains that temperature until evening when the digital drops back to 64F, which then allows the radiant portion to keep the floors warmed at 67F through the night. My result has seen a true cost savings of more than $200 half way through our cold Maine heating season. We are now the most comfortable we have been in the past four years. I truly recommend this Aube thermostat. It is easy to program and install.... and it looks nice on the wall. Also, if I over-ride the program momentarily, I leave the door cover open as a reminder that I need to return it to its programmed control.
