> 3 dayAppears to be well made, keeps accurate tempurature, the only negative is the adhesion, I meticulously cleaned the glass, and only about 80% of the adhesive pad stuck to the glass does not appear to affect the operation of the pad.

> 3 dayLove this product. Been working for me for 2 years now. No issues still, be sure to plug into thermostat as to regulate temperature.

> 3 dayYou cant control the temperature on this, but it works really good. My leopard gecko loves it more than her last one. Super cheap compared to other heat mats that work really well

Greater than one weekMy geckos love it. The female will go over and lay right up next to it for hours and hours, the male doesn’t use it as much but she loves it.

> 3 dayReplaced hot rock which took too much space. Put it under aquarium and set slate tile on top of glass to retain heat. Little buddies tend to hang out on slate after eating to digest their food and poop.

Greater than one weekMiltiple times this product reads 0 degrees from the senior and ran the electricity to the heating pad constantly. This ended up creating an unsafe temperature for my reptile (30 degree above my desired temperature).

> 3 dayIt’s easy enough to use but the mat just doesn’t have enough power to get the hotspot to anything above 80-90 and it’s a little frustrating.

> 3 dayCame well packaged with all instructions included. Easy to understand and connect the heat pad to the thermostat. Liked that you have to hold down the SET button in order to change the desired temp so there are no accidental sets. This was purchased to heat a Dubia Roach colony bin. A hole just big enough for the probe to go through was made and the probe attached to the inside wall of the bin(will be moved to the middle egg flat) and the heat mat is on the outside. I originally only used the adhesive backing included with the heat mat and went over the adhesion multiple times to make sure it was well bonded. It held up over night, but, during the day today, I heard something fall. I found the heat mat had come off of the bin and was laying on the ground. This could have caused a hazard, especially if I had not been home. I have since used a heat resistant tape to hold it at the top and will be adding more to insure it will not fall again. Otherwise, it has worked well.

> 3 dayThe 6x9 mat recommended for a 10 gallon tank is not adequate. I now have a small space heater plugged into the thermostat, pointing at my hermit crab terrarium. That works surprisingly well.
