This is our third mattress pad in the past five years. The first was OK, but needed to be replaced after four years. The one we purchased last year lost most of it's heating ability in just a few months. The new Sunbeam Therapeutic was comparatively expensive, but worth every penny.
Pros
1. Like our others, it has two sides so we can set our own preferences, but it has separate connections at the bottom of the pad as well. No more large, hard lump in the middle (we used to have to cover it with a towel to avoid stubbing our toes).
2. Each side has three separate zones, so you can have different temperatures for head, torso and feet. Fabulous for me I like cold pillows and toasty toes.
3. It's really warm. We haven't set it at more than level 2 and it does provide therapeutic help for my other half who has rheumatoid arthritis. He's sleeping better than he has in ages and remarkably he's snoring less.
4. You can preheat it and never climb into a cold bed again and the preheat setting works faster than simply turning it on a while before getting between the sheets, as we did with our previous ones.
5. The lighted background on the controls goes dark after a few minutes for those of us who need it dark to sleep.
6. The pad is thick enough that you don't feel the wires.
7. It arrived very quickly and we had it when our alpha cat got pissed (literally) at me for spending a night with my new grandson. I was saving it for a holiday gift, but opened it rather than waiting for the soiled one to dry.
Cons
1. Sometimes it gets too warm and we have to turn it off, which is not a big deal.
2. There is only one remote, although it has separate controls for each side. Again, this is not an issue for us we just keep it on the window ledge above our bed.
3. The directions instruct you to place the control box under the bed near the foot of the bed. Great, except we have a platform bed and putting it on the floor at the bottom of the bed would be a tripping hazard. We placed it at the top of the bed between the frame and the wall.
4. Sometimes, I can hear it "hum" when it cycles on. This probably would not be noticed by most people it's just that we live in a remote and extremely quiet place. Actually, the sound helps me fall asleep!

My wife and I like to sleep in a cool and dark room but in the winter the room becomes a little cooler than is comfortable. Having this heated mattress pad ensures our peaceful sleep doesn't get interrupted. If you get chilled easy or have poor circulation in your feet this is the perfect item to install over your mattress to keep you warm from head to toe. By the way the wireless duel controller is a bonus!
