Bought it to help propagate fig tree cuttings. Needed a mat this larger to place a large clear plastic storage container on it. I potted the fig tree cuttings in clear plastic cups and placed them inside the storage container sitting on a plastic grid work to keep them off the bottom of the container. I then added water but not to the point where it touched the bottom of the cups. I then placed a clear piece of plexiglass over the container thus creating a hot house. I placed the container on the heating mat and plugged it in. The heating mat warms the water just enough to create a very humid condition which in turn makes a very efficient long term growing environment for the cuttings to form roots and leaves. This mat has been very reliable and provides an inside temperature range of around 76 to 79 degrees which is around 8 to 10 degrees warmer than the room temperature. When I need another, I'll be getting one of these again. Great product at a very good price point.Read full review

The product got here quick. The temperature probe works fine. The instruction manual is abit trickery. It dose have a calculus to Fahrenheit conversion. however i noticed whenever i put it to Fahrenheit it tends to get hotter then the desired temperature. even with the heating differential set, it still climbs abit over. I use this for incubation purposes so maintaining correct temperatures is critical. Too hot and all the critters will cook. It might be just my device but still something to watch out for.

Other cheaper Mats Do NOT hold temps above 65. This one actually gets up to 75 with only a little fluctuation. Cheaper Mats are just that, too cheap to keep up the heat. This company seems to be the only reliable one out there.

I REALLY like these mats! Here in western Washington State it usually doesn't get too warm. Yet, I have to get my seeds planted. These mats do the job! I also have a tropical tree that went dormant; again too cold here. I put the tree under the mat and it's starting to grow again. Super easy to use. Plug it in, put the pots on top of the mat and you're good to go. I would definitely buy more of these. Especially, because the price is SO reasonable!

first time to use plant starter heating pads. Works wonders in starting my seeds. Hundred times better results than before I used the heating pad. Go get it.

This Mat has been working well so far to start kitchen herb plants indoors from seeds. Between this heating mat and grow might, I have tiny oregano, basil, and Thai basil emerging in less than a week from planting.

If you use a grow tent these are key to use. They are also very good for the obvious reasons and that’s producing seedlings in your seedling greenhouses. But I also use mine to put in between the growing tray and the bottom of tent and sometimes in between the layers in tent depending on how cold it is out. Plus soil temp is very important and a must. Depending on what your growing that is. These aren’t suitable for every growing medium and project just depends on the soil temp you need. But it really helps your seeds germinate quicker and helps certain plants grow better. I totally recommend

Bought this for my 3 month old grandson. He was instantly intrigued and delighted. My daughter sent a picture of him and his 10 year old brother laying next to it and laughing...I luv it!

It works as advertised and I verified it uses 22 watts. Heating pads do not feel warm to the touch as they are below 85 degrees and the human body is 98 degrees. An on/off switch would be nice.

I work in a greenhouse that is closing. I wanted to be able to start my seeds early in the spring, so I purchased this mat. It simulates the large heat chamber we use in the greenhouse. I purchased the plastic 8" dome cover for it as well. Can't wait to use it.
