Heating Pad - Therapy Warming and Cooling Glove for Arthritis Stiff Soreness and Trigger Finger - Natural Pain Relief for The Hand from Moist Heat & Soothing Cold (Purple)

Update: Am changing my rating from a 3 to 5 stars. After putting this in the freezer a few times and using it more, I decided I like it more and my first review below was not a fair review.. the first few times I used it, it was too hot for the majority of the time it retained heat. It felt steamy. Maybe that had something to do with it being used for the first few times. I have tried it again and while it does get hot , it does not feel so steamy and I find it more comfortable, The heat seems to stay nice for about 10-12 minutes. Wish it would retain that temp for longer, but it is what it is.. I also realized that While not as hot as the inside the outside of the mitt gets hot enough ( that it can be placed over the other hand or another spot to give warmth and relief. So I will be keeping this mitt and and considering getting another so I can do both hands at once. So I do recommend this and it does give me some relief from the pain of carpal Tunnel and Arthritis. Also I do not think it smells bad.. Smells like any micro wave heating pad type thing. It is a natural smell of what it is filled with.I really wanted to love this.. It's made in the USA, it fit my smaller hand nicely, but I am disappointed. I don't normally have problems with hot. When company is visiting I have to turn the hot water heater down because it is set to high for anyone but me. My water in the kitchen gets so hot I like to hand wash some dishes just to run my aching hands through it. The hot really helps.. But this mitt gets too hot even for me. I switch my hands back and forth because for approx. the first 8 minutes after taking it out of the microwave it is just to hot for comfort.. Then it starts cooling down and there is maybe 3-4 minutes of perfect temp bliss and then it goes a little warm for a good amount of time. I suppose that most microwave gloves would be the same. This would be the perfect glove if it were electric and the temp could be controlled and kept at desired temp for a period of time with a liner that could be dampened for wet heat . the glove does seem to be decently made and if you just want a little warmth this will probably work for you. While it does have some weight I did not find it to be uncomfortable,

This item is awesome. So much warmth it gives to the affected area - for about 15 minutes. I have used it every day since I bought it. This is a good product.

Excellent deep heat.Make one bigger, open on both side. So you can put both hands in the mitten. Give me 1% of every mitten sold.

Iam 67 yrs old and my hands hurt a great deal and this glove heats up in 1 min and can be used as heating pad in different areas on your body!

I love the size, the weight of it on my hand, and the cute color...BUT, it doesn't stay hat very long :/ I am going to try the cold version after my wrist surgery tomorrow and will report back on the cold retention side.

My wife and I are very happy with these. She uses them for her hands and I use one behind my neck. My daughter has recently used one on her forehead for migraine and loved it. The shape and design really allows you to put it on your shoulder or a knee or behind your back or rest an elbow on it, etc. It isn't limited to being a sleeve that your hand goes in. For that reason and the fact that it is cheaper than most of the plug-in ones we think these are a great value. Oh, and they heat up nicely. Experiment with the amount of time in your microwave for the temp that suits you.

My left hand was very badly injured by a shotgun blast. After surgery I needed therapy and they suggested I warm my hand before the exercises. Heating this for 60-70 second in the microwave does the trick! It has made my life so much better and my hand exercises have been without pain. I've gained limber back into the hand.

I really like it but paid for 2 and only got 1 (ps there is only one in each package) but I ordered two packages. I am very happy with the product I just can’t find a way to message either Amazon or manufacturer about it. Please contact me and send me second one. Thank you
