Sleep Like Royalty With This Zone Heating Mattress Pad And Say Goodbye To Cold Nights

Review: "This thing might have saved my marriage (kidding!). My husband is a hot sleeper and always wants a fan on even when it's freezing in winter. I am always cold and hate being cold. I set this mattress pad when I head up to bed, and it is nice and toasty by the time I'm done my nighttime routine (10 minutes). No more climbing into cold sheets! I set it to turn off after 30 minutes so I don't wake up hot. It's perfect!!" - x

For hair dye these make sense, but no way they're going to keep water out of ears during a bath or shower.

But hey, that's part of the charm of Amazon, isn't it? It's a place where anything is possible, and the only limit is your imagination (and maybe your budget).

Nice idea, poor execution. Reviews say it's slick, flimsy and doesn't pick up anything. Weird product video shows how to put it on fingers, but ends abruptly before showing it picking up anything.
