THESE ARE FANTASIC!
I get terrible migraines a couple of times a week and have had neck surgery, so I don't know what I would do without two Bed Buddies around all the time. I heat the Bed Buddies up, putting one under my neck and one on top of my forehead. They allow me to fall asleep, where otherwise I wouldn't be able to, even with my triptan meds from the neurologist. I'm very thankful for this product.
This product really does the trick for my headaches. I keep it in my car sometimes too. I would recommend having one at all times. The first thing I do when I get a headache is run to my bed buddy and it always helps the pain!
I love this product! It is amazing for sore shoulders or back and menstrual cramps. I'd even use this before an OTC painkiller--it's so much faster!
Because it's filled with natural grain, it has a mild odor when heated, like rice. It's not so annoying that I would stop using the product. After microwaving it, let it sit for a minute or two or it will be too hot. Other than that, it's quite safe.
This is the BEST way to get moist heat that i've found yet! I'm a college student, on a budget and have had hot-packs in the past but they came with strong scents that only aggravated my neck and headaches!
bought because i couldn't find the "sinus pack" by bed buddy. but i'll gladly keep both! a fought after item in our household!!

Pulled a muscle in my neck and this is so much easier than trying to put a heating pad on my neck.
I am addicted to mine~great for cold winter nights, neck, shoulders, etc. I get lower back pain and this really helps alot! I just bought my second!

I bought this because of a sore wrist and it works great. It also feels lovely on my neck and shoulders. Since I (assume) it's filled with buckwheat, there is a slight odor that I notice when it's been heated. Not a bad odor, just sorta, grainy/oaty-smelling. You should be careful after heating it since it can get quite hot, but that's only common sense.

Use for those aches & pains .. hot or cold. Great at night to keep you warm.

I just had thyroid surgery and my neck was very stiff and sore afterwards. My Bed Buddy wrap has been perfect. 2 minutes in the microwave and it provides up to an hour of heat which has been great for my sore neck. I just ordered two more because I accidentally left mine in the microwave in my office too long and it burned(and smells terrible). As with anything else that you heat in a microwave, it should not be left unattended. Always use caution and common sense as it can get very hot.
Bed Buddy is convenient as a heating pad, it has no
cord to tangle, and you can fall asleep with it, seeing the heat gradually fades so you are in no danger of getting burns.
My favorite use is just for comfortable warmth on cold winter nights , the handles make it easy to move around also. I have had mine for years !
I love it !
I use this every nite during the cold weather to warm the foot area of my bed. It is impossible for me to go to sleep with COLD feet.. THIS item Does the Trick.. Thank you VERY MUCH !!
This is the best product! I use it for aches and pains in my back and neck. It's great for heating me up in a freezing cold office. It also comes in handy for relieving cramps.
It has a smell when you heat it up. At first it bothered me but I just got used to it. I hardly notice it anymore.
I use this product daily and would reccommend it to anyone.

I am on my 2nd Bed Buddy - I have been using them for about 4 years now. I heated it for 2 minutes (our microwave has a low wattage), which is the time I always heat it at, and felt it too hot this time. After letting it sit for about 1 - 2 minutes I applied to the middle of my neck and accidentally fell asleep. I now have a second degree burn with a nasty blister. Make certain you don't overheat your Bed Buddy before use!!!
I have used the bed buddy since it originally came out! I suffer from migraines and whether I use it hot or cold, it provides relief. I use a cover over it, so that I can launder the cover and keep that fresh. I would be lost without it! They are affordable and I replace them as needed.
Great heat, smells like oatmeal, very relaxing
this thing is easy to use, and works great!
would recommend to anyone for a head ache or sore muscle aches.

This is great for warming cold feet in the winter time and for sore muscles. The only complaint I have is the odor. it does lesson over time though. I have noticed that over time it starts to smell burnt after just a minute of heating. I'm going to replace my year old one for a new one. Wouldn't go to bed without it!

With rheumatoid arthritis I am always looking for something to help. I can't imagine living without the original bed-buddy! Some say odor is offensive. The odor is minimal, much like oatmeal, and the benefits FAR outway the light odor.

I wouldn't want to be without this product. Winter or summer it's great for sore muscles, aches and pains or just to warm your tootsies at bedtime. I've replaced my worn one and given these as gifts to family and friends.

I use this product when I have a severe headache and/or when the back of my neck is tense. There is an odor but its not bad and the smell totally dispears after use.
