By Leonardo Souza I was looking for a heated seat cushion for my Subaru Forester to go through the hard winters we have here in Michigan. This one sold by Amazon is a winner! I honestly haven't found a better price, even for similar brands, around the net. I paid $17.99 (october 2006) for it plus free shipping since I bought more stuff to go over $25. Anyways...
This heated cushion is pretty powerful and I usually set it to HI just to warm up quickly and 5 minutes later I switch it to LOW or OFF because it's hot enough. Most of the time I just let it on LOW mode and it's pretty comfortable.
If you're looking for something that you don't need to pay an arm and a leg for it, but still does its job of keeping your bottom toasty, you should give this product a try.
NOTE: I have been using it for 2 weeks now. I'll update this review sometime in January 2007 when the winter here is really bad, to tell you guys whether I'm still happy with my purchase or not. But so far so good (temps here are already close to 32... :( )

Product still working like new. I actually bought a second one for my other car. Like other people said, the plastic clamps are not that great, I agree. But it's a small trade-off for something priced at $18, I think.
66 of 68 people found the following review helpful. Mixed Blessing By Idoru69 The seat does get hot quickly, which is the good part. However, as mentioned by other reviewers, the elastic bands fastening the seat to your car seat break easily, so the cusion can start to get bunched up and will not hold its shape well. Finally as another reviewer mentioned, this WILL drain your battery if you leave it on... nice idea and price, but watch the limitations.

By redcat72 The product definitely does what it says, but I'm undecided if I am going to keep it. Although, for $20 I may as well. I just started using it in my 2002 Subaru Outback Sport. It does heat up quickly and keeps you toasty, but the padding is a bit too thick for me. It sat me up much higher and further forward than I am used to. You will most likely have to do some maneuvering of your seat settings to get back to your preferred seating height.
Unfortunately it looks like all the seat heaters out there have a fair amount of padding, which I imagine is necessary to have for the heating element. I realize it is a "universal fit", but the top portion does bow forward away from the back of my bucket seat with the two straps around the back. Hopefully this will mold itself to fit better over time. Not crazy about the fit & padding, but it keeps you comfortably warm which is better than nothing! If we could choose half stars, I'd give it 3 1/2 stars.
UPDATE: 11/14/08
I was really loving my seat warmer, and then yesterday it stopped working! No more heat. Unfortunately, I am past my Amazon return window. But it does have a 90 day limited warranty, so I emailed Wagan to see what they could do. I will update if I get a response.
Update: 11/18/08
I received a quick response from Wagan with a RA# to return for a replacement. They also said there is a 1 year warranty on this item when the Amazon product page said it was only 90 days. It will take 3 weeks or so to process, so hopefully I will have my replacement before it gets too cold. Good customer service though!
Hot Deal!!!
