I agonized over choosing a pair of microwave booties; the prices are high and low and the reviews are few and far between and people never seemed to give the information that i wanted most to know.

These are so perfect, they're everything I wanted and more, I'm so very glad I went with these! There are 2 minor downs but I think they're baggage that any of these type of thing carries; 1) I hate that you only nuke the first time for 30 seconds, then 10, then 10, then 10 to taste. I admit I'm cheating and going for 30, then 15, then 15. I don't want to risk ruining them, but I like them very hot and hate waiting. 2) The lavender scent is VERY strong. If you don't like that, remove the scented sachet and you're good (but I bet they'll still have some residual scent, it's STRONG.)

Here's what I wanted to know but had trouble finding out: They have the wheat filling sewn into the entire sole of the foot, toe to heel. They have a second hot packet of wheat that fits in the top of the bootie. There's no wheat packet for the ankle or leg. They have a textured slipper sole, but really with the packet underfoot they are not meant for walking onit's too uneven and dangerous. Once heated the entire foot is encased in gently radiating warmth, it's a very substantial feeling and there's only the area from the ankle bone around the back of the heel to the other ankle bone without direct heat pressure. The bootie keeps heat inside, though, so it's not a cold spot, just somewhere that there's no weight of grain.

They are incredibly easy to use; you put the pair of boots (whole, no disassembly) on a plate or paper towel in a carousel microwave with a half cup of water, zap them for 30 seconds, test their temp, zap them for an additional 10 seconds and test, repeat as needed up to 2 minutes. The directions specify carousel microwave if you don't have the rotating plate you will probably need to start with a much shorter 10 second start and then rotate it by hand for each following 10 second zap.

I broke a bone in my right foot, and my PT is tiring out the muscles of my foot, especially painful at the arch. Using these is pure heaven, I like them a little hotter than they probably should be, but sitting here pressing my foot down on the hot grain and having the hot weight resting on top of my foot from toes to the bridge is the most wonderful feeling. It's as good as having a foot bath going with so much less hassle and none of the mess. I spent so much time pouring over Amazon reviews for hot booties, I wish I'd settled down and chosen these sooner.

I was looking for some nice heated booties for when I work on the computer in a colder room in my home. These looked so darn cute, I just found them irresistable.

Pros Unique pattern although the white on the cow pattern can get stained/dirty easily, scented heat packets sit above and below the foot which is a definite perk, elastic is just right they stay up without being too tight, once the fragrance mellows out, I think it will be a nice feature, they are washable after removing the inserts. They are comfortable and somewhat warm even if you don't heat them or keep them heated. When warmed, they do not make my feet sweaty or too hot feeling. I had some reservations when it said item would take 3-5 weeks to ship, but I was delighted to receive the order in approximately one week instead.

Cons They are made for BIG feet. The package says they fit up to size 9.5. I wear 8.5WW and these are quite large on me, at least a good size and a half. If you have a size 9.5 foot, great, otherwise they are definitely going to be big. They'd fit better if I wore thick socks but if I wanted to wear thick socks I probably wouldn't have bought this product. The directions state very clearly you should heat the entire bootie not just the inserts. They recommend 30 seconds and then adding 10 second increments. I have a strong microwave and even heating them for 2 minutes has not produced any significant lasting warmth. I am a little concerned about microwaving something with buttons etc. longer than that but I think I may need to really nuke these for awhile. The fragrance in the booties is VERY potent so if you are very sensitive to scents, I would not purchase. I purposely did not buy the booties with lavender because it's just not my favorite scent. I believe the cow print is supposed to have rosemary, pine and lemon but my booties smell very much like lavender. I wonder how careful they are with matching the correct scent packs with the booties. On the back of the booties, there is a button that fits through an elastic loop and the scent insert goes inside. On one of the booties, I find that the button tends to come undone leaving the bottom flapping open, even with casual lounging around. Velcro or some other closure may have been a better choice.

Other notes: They are comfortable for sitting or lounging around. Walking in them is not recommended or advisable. It is not comfortable and probably not very safe. This can be a pain if you are like me and tend to get up and down a lot. I know from other microwaveable booties, at best they are going to stay warm about 20-30 minutes. To be honest, if not for the cow pattern which I really fell in love with, I might have returned them. I am not faulting the product though. I actually think these are more well-made than others I have seen or tried, however in general microwave booties just don't retain heat for that long.

These are so great! I recently moved from Hawaii to the Pacific Northwest, and my feet were suddenly cold EVERY night! So I bought these and it has been wonderful! They smell terrific & do a super job of keeping my feet toasty. And as everyone has said if you try walking in them, do so carefully they have a warning on the packaging NOT to walk in them. They are lumpy. But that is not their purpose, so no problem. Love 'em and would buy 'em again!

My feet are always cold in the winter so I've been using heated booties for a few years now. I've found these are the best quality, longest lasting, and have the most comfortable design.

These socks are much better quality then some of the other ones on the market. I bought another pair of "spa socks" and they are nowhere near as nice as these. The only thing I don't like about them is that you have to take out the heat packs and put them in the microwave, which is a bit of a pain.
