UTKKnee Heating Pad for Knee Pain, Far Infrared Heating Pads for Knee and Leg, 6 Jade Stones, 3 Heat Settings, Auto Shut Off, Heated Knee Brace Wrap for Women and Men

Easy to use. Good quality. Very comfortable when on. There are 3 attached straps. They are stretchy and 2 are extra long, so they will fit plus sized, which I am. They Velcro around your knee. It has 3 heat and 3 timer settings. It’s very thin, so you can take it anywhere you need. I’m not sure if the red light therapy is helping yet, I haven’t been consistent with with it, but I can say, it feels good using it, and it does feel a bit better after using it.

This Far-IR pad has been much more effective than my old, traditional heating pad. For months, following a partial menisectomy, I had knee discomfort, and nothing I did seemed to cure that. However, extended, daily use of this heating pad has done wonders for my knee -- likely by increasing circulation to the poorly-oxygenated meniscal area. Since traditional heating pads mostly heat the skin externally, they don't work as well as this Far-IR pad, which penetrates more deeply.The company, UTK, has excellent and responsive customer service. My first heating pad stopped working after six months of use. They provided a replacement to me within days of my contacting them.Since I've used it so much, there are a couple of things I've found I would like for future versions of the product:1. It would be nice if it came with a washable sleeve or cloth to put between the pad and the skin. Not only can the jade stones can get quite hot (depending on the temperature setting), but it makes it easier to keep the pad clean if it's not in direct contact with the skin (after all, you can't just throw the pad in the washer since it's electronic).2. It would be nice if the pad or jade stones could be oriented vertically if the user wishes. Currently, the stones run in two rows, one above the kneecap and one below when the pad is attached (see the product picture), but it might be more effective for medial meniscus tears if the stones were oriented vertically, meaning that they run up and down the side of the knee, rather than at the top and bottom. It's possible to orient the pad that way, but the Velcro straps don't fasten properly in the vertical (up/down) position -- they are designed to only fasten horizontally around the knee.

Feels good and works well, good fit -

The media could not be loaded. Very happy with this great little FIR heating pad... i have a few other UTK pads.. and LOVE them for my back... I love that you don't have to have it super hot for the Infrared benefits... they are heavy though so when i got this one i LOVE that it is very lightweight.. easy to pack in the luggage for our hiking trips to help with aching knees. I also actually liked using on my neck... i looped the one strp around my neck and left the others undone.. perfect for hitting the cervical reagion that can be difficult to get heatingpad to. Have emailed with UTK before and always get a quick response.

Agree with others, the heating failed after only a few uses. Bought it in 2023 then had it stored in safe and protected pace. Went to use it recently and it would barely warm. There are better options are out there, I wouldn't recommend this especially at its high price point.

This works great until it doesn't. One day it just stopped working. Too bad cuz I do think it's a great heating pad, when it works.

Light weight, easy to use, very therapeutic. After using, my knees feel great, warm and relaxed.

There's no real compression here as the material has quite a bit of give and you probably wouldn't want to jam the stones into your knees anyway. But, it works wonderfully to get the heat into your knee and keep everything in place during your session.There's a timer with 15, 30, and 60 minute segments and then the power button that cycles through low, medium, high, and off, so very simple to operate.High only draws 14w too, so no concerns on power circuit loading.I do find anything more than about 5 min on high is too much, but medium you can do a full session.
