Works on Kitchen Tile
I got this mat to keep my two small dogs warm while staying with my in-laws in northern Utah. We set up a little place for them in the doorway between the kitchen and office with cables, blankets, and dog beds. We cable the dogs when leaving the house without them, but set up their place away from carpet in case of the rare accident. Because their place is on kitchen tile, it is difficult to stay warm even with the dog beds and blankets. I put a bathroom mat underneath the dog beds before this heating pad arrived, which helped some, but the heating pad made a huge difference.I put the heating pad directly on the tile overlapping an edge of the bath mat and underneath the dog beds. I started it at the base setting (3) and let it warm up for about 30 minutes then tested it with my hand. The part of the heating pad that stuck out from underneath the dog bed didn’t feel warm at all, but the section that overlapped with the bath mat was pleasantly warm. Similarly, when I reached into the bottom of the dog bed, it was warmed. This leads me to think that when placed on tile, the heating pad does better with a blanket or dog bed on top that it transfers the heat to, otherwise the heat is lost into the tile. If it is placed on top of carpet or a mat, then it has an easier time warming up.Anyway, my dogs loved it. My Jack Russel mix is very temperature sensitive and struggles with epilepsy. This kept him warm, comfortable, happy, and safe. He preferred to hang out in this little setup instead of with us in the living room.Haven’t tried washing it yet, but the cover looks easy enough to remove for the wash. Noise wasn’t an issue. No weird smell. Their water bowl spilled once, and it didn’t react negatively. I really liked the 6 settings and variety of timers. Great product.Ver másVer menos
