heat in a click heartThe name may be a bit of a mouthful, but the products produced by Heatinaclick could prove to be very useful if you want to stave off the chill of the cold weather this winter. The whole of the Heatinaclick Range consists of various sizes and shapes of heating pad. These are reusable and portable, with the intention being that you will carry the flexible, floppy pads with you and activate their heating properties when the temperatures dip. There are a wide variety of pads on offer with different intended applications. You can get a foot warmer, a hand warmer, a face mask, a baby bottle warmer, a back warmer and a saucily-named pleasure pad which is basically a hot water bottle with a sexed-up name tagged on. All of the Heatinaclick products use a toxin-free molecular reaction based on Sodium Acetate to activate the heating process and will hit maximum temperatures of 54 degrees. heatinalclickThat should prove to be toasty enough for every occasion, whether it is keeping your bed warm at night or your feet feeling fiery in the day. The liquid in each pad will become solid as part of the process and as the generated heat dissipates the pad will return to its solution form. The best thing about the Heataclick products is that each gadget is reusable multiple times.

    Waste of money! The product is heavy once heated and does not take the shape of your skin. You have to boil it in the hope that it goes soft again, good luck with that it does not always happen. Much easier to use a heating pad or hot water bottle to be honest. This product is a con and expect to use it once if you're lucky..i bought 3 and by the time i got it home it had already turned into a brick, so i had to boil it, ruining my tea towel in the process, because you have to put it in a towel as well.

    Briony. Did you take your heat pads back to get your money refunded. I bought one and it does seem a waste of money. I put a j cloth in the bottom of the pan as I could not fit a tea cloth and the pad in both together.

    I am going to try it again, and see what happens. If still no good then I am going to ask for my money back, that is if they are still there.

    I bought mine in Poole.

    I bought 3 of these pads also, I got them yesterday in Norwich and thought they seemed like a good deal while in the mall. The man on the stand told my mother and I that to reuse them you just pop them into a bowl of cold water for 5 mins then it's ready to use again. I have tried this and also using boiling water and the 3 of them are all still solid. I'm going to take them back when I go to Norwich in the hope that they are still there, if not I think I shall contact them on their website. You are right…….. A complete waste of money!

    I took my heat pad back yesterday, and asked for a refund. The man on the stand said that he had to phone his manager first,which he did before he gave me my money back..I think that they do get alot returned.

    If he wasn't prepared to refund, than I would have told customers not to wast their money buying these pads.

    Good luck for when you take yours back. . .

    hey mae,

    they refunded your money back ?

    i just bought one today for my dad thinking it was a great idea for his back, so i tested it too see if it works, after you boil it and it just becomes rock solid again…

    please let me know thanks.

    You're supposed to boil it and ensure all the crystals have gone. You are also warned when buying it(if having done research) that the object does form a hot solid, as that is the reaction causing heat taking place. If you don't want to dirty your towel, place it in a bowl and pour boiling water over it repeatedly until all crystals dissolve. Yes, they are over priced, but they are available on ebay for half the price. My only issue would be that they don't seem to last much longer than half an hour. The product is handy if needing warmth out and about as you don't need a kettle or anything to produce the heat. Down side is its only useable once until reset. Still think its a good little device and will be handy for the future cold months.

    Girlfriend bought one of the shoulder ones in the mall , a little import rip off stand…u know the ones. Paid 60$us for this one….wow lotta coin for something they claimed worked up to 2 hours. So here's the truth…very nice to play with,fun to click and squish around but only lasts 30 mins and u need to boil about ten to twenty mins also while turning. Don't buy for aches and pains. Or get ripped off! Would really only pay about 10 to 20$ for this as its more like a mesmorizing toy. And the little stands at the mall say no refunds……hummmm yea I wonder why?

  9. mae says:

    That little notice on the stand is not worth the paper it's printed on. They cannot refuse to refund if something does not do what they claim it should. I brought a back pad and got a full refund. You just have to stand your ground. I think that they do not like it when you are telling them what rubbish it is when there are other customers abouy.

  10. Mark says:

    I have several Heat in a click poducts that all work exactly as they were advertized. They are portable and ready to use wen needed. The larger the pad, the longer it stays warm. The smaller hand warmers have about 2 hrs of life. The boiling part is a bit of a pain, but as you ca get 10 hand warmers for about $20 on Ebay, the ability to reuse saves a fortune over the disposable ones. This off sets he pain of boiling them up. As for them not going back to liquid when boiling, just give them a little longer.

  11. mae says:

    Mark, how much did they pay you to write this? Or you must have bought the only ones that work!. The large back one only stayed hot for around 20 minutes. My hot water bottle stays hotter for longer., ,

  12. Steve says:

    Well, I'm from Canada and I bought one last year for 15$. Yeah it really works, but you have to boil it until there's no crystal. Like the little note says : if there's even one crystal left, all the pad will turn solid again. My concern is about how many times will I be able to use and re-use it. I didn't use it a lot (maybe 10 times) and now the pad seems to be 1/3 empty !! How this could happen? since there's no leaks…

  13. Alex ross says:

    l will be going up to cross iron mills mall today in Calgary to ask for a refund for a back click heat that my daughter bought me for xmas , she recieved no reciept.

    l will never use this , its unopened new in box , and after reviewing the vidio and the reviews l am sure l will NEVER use it.

    Would you please inform the stand seller about this , much apprecieated.

  14. woot woot! says:

    I am chilling on my couch loving the pad on my knees and the pad on my shoulders… this will be great for my massage clients, they don't burn the skin when on it directly so it will make my job 100 times easier.

  15. PDS says:

    I bought one for my mum and she uses it on her back almost every night. I just pop it in a big casserole of boiling water every morning and it's fluid again and ready to go. It will recrystallize if the crystals are not boiled completely, so it just needs to be left on the stovetop a little longer if that's the case. The heat in the back pad lasts about 2 hours. She says that it really is helping with her back pain. I'm shocked to hear how many people have had bad experiences with this product. I think it's a winner. I bought it on fishpond.com.au for $15.

  16. Dean says:

    I bought one on ebay, used it about 6 times and works well. I have found that you need to immediately play with it first if you want it to be soft otherwise you will get a hard solid.

    But I paid $3 for 2 handwarmers off ebay, so totally worth the cash.

  17. jmad323 says:

    I bought this crap at a warehouse sale in hamilton that usually carries good products except for this one. I bought it, used it the day of and followed the directions to return it to its initial form and as it would cool it would recristalize and wouldnt work. I tried to return it and the guys (slimy jerks) said it was non refundable. When I argued with then until they agreed to refund me they scaned my debit card and must have hit cancel because the refund never came to my account. Their head office is in London UK which they tried to tell me was in Toronto ON. They also gave me a fake number to call to try to get rid of me. I would never buy this product it is such a hassle. A plug in heating pad or hot water bottle is way more useful and actually works the way it was intended to.

  18. sucked in again says:

    Spent $125.00. Two back packs; 4 hand warmers; pkg. of foot warmers for ma. Tried to take them all back as they would go rock hard and cold within 5-10 min. Was told the more you use them (boil them) the longer they will stay warm and soft. The guy told me that after the 6th or 7th time they are boiled, the better they will work. No refunds. Although on their site they say not to microwave, I thought, "What do I have to loose". First I boiled a back pack to get to liquid state then let it cool. Then wrapped it in a very wet tea towel and micro waved at 1 min. intervals. For 3 minutes total. Popped it in the waist band which I also bought. 12 hours later, it is still warm and mushy. It may not work again, but at least I got one good run out of it. I will stick with my rice bag, heating pad or hot water bottle.

  19. Duped says:

    What a piece of crap. DON'T BUY IT!! I mean DO NOT BUY IT.

    Bought two back packs for $110 yesterday. I was told to heat it up to liquid after use. I thought how hard can it be. Saw they had a cooler to heat theirs on the counter. When I heat the packs up with boiling water they are still crystalized. Since they are not completely liquified they turn back to completely hard again. It's impossible to turn it back to liquid state again.

    It's NO REFUND on the receipt. If they are selling a good product they would take the product back. It's refunds only – what would I want in exchange? Another piece of junk?
