Dang, I just bought a dual zone heated mattress cover. Absolutely love it except for the fact that it's all manual; you can't turn it on remotely or schedule on and off times (although it automatically shuts off after a fixed 10 hours). I often go to bed later than my wife, so have to sneak in to the bedroom 15 minutes before bed to turn my side on (or leave it on unnecessarily, or get into a cold bed, defeating the whole purpose).
This is actually less expensive than the one we bought, and obviously much more feature rich.
- maghis 12y agoYou probably got a "SoftHeat" (made by Perfect Fit maybe?), I love them, they are really good quality. One of the problems they have is that they are not aware of the temperature and after a few hours usually get too hot and really uncomfortable. When using them I usually wake up feeling too hot and have to turn them off.
- tempestn 12y agoYep, it's a Soft Heat. And yes, the dial goes up to 10; I set it to 2ish before bed, then turn it down to slightly less than 1 before falling asleep. That's usually low enough that I don't get too warm in the night, but I have occasionally woken up and turned it off. (I can't even conceive of someone setting it higher than 3 or so...) Given that we just got it I'll probably hold off on this project for now, but I definitely see an upgrade in the future!
