Can we lie flat on our backs on this product, or does the manufacturer say not to? We don't want to have to lie on our stomachs.

As far as I know all heating pads tell you not to lie on them. I haven't let that stop me with any I have ever owned. Just pay attention to the heat setting and how long you lay on it. Also, if you have a medical condition where heat may cause problems, you want to be very careful.

I lay flat on my back most of the time. I do suggest using the "low" setting to avoid possible blistering.

i don't know how much you weigh. I have layed on it and also put behind my back when driving. You can always lay on your side and put something against it to hold in place (like a pillow).

You should never allow your child to sleep on his stomach in the first place. That's asking for SIDS. I know some of them are belly sleepers but buy something which forces them to sleep on their back.

If you roll on it on your back it will massage along you spine, yes. You can also lay on your stomach and have someone roll it along your spine.

I use it and it will stay flat but i am not rough with it. My husband now will use it on his back and it does get bunched up. So i guess it depends on person. It is easy enough though, to fix if it does bunch up.I will say this too, that i tend to use low so high heat is hot. Hope this helps you decide.

Can't help you too much there. I sleep on my back and place it under my neck for support. It can be easily molded into any shape, so don't see why not.

The chair shape is rigid. Very comfy on your back, but you would have to be shaped wierd to lie on it on your belly. So the answer to your question is no.

It's designed to sit on (and it is quite high), not sleep on unless you want a high pillow for your head. If you have a low back problem, it is usually suggested that you sleep on your side with a pillow between your knees (to keep your lower back from twisting). Good Luck.

If you sleep on your back, absolutely! If you sleep on your side (like me), also fine. If you sleep on your stomach... can't say I've tried that, but I think it would be okay although not ideal...

It does not go completely flat. I would not recommend laying on your stomach in these chairs.

Well don't know how it would be to sleep on you tummy, but if it's anything like it is on your bck it would be pretty awesome, it has to be the best mattress ever. So very comfortable!! Love it and will by one for my bed at my house when it's time!

Sorry Pauline Instructions says not to lean on pad.It works well lying on your back though with face down.

No, you don't have to be lying down. I sometimes use it in the car, and my mom uses it when she watches TV

you won't be able to roll it underneath of you. I wouldn't get that one. You want it to be able to move under you as you move your body across it and side to side. This is very hard and hard on your body. I am getting one from my chiropractor that is medium density. Good luck.

Update: I just tried laying on the device under the heaviest parts of my back. It worked just fine, and the wheels did not make the clacking that makes it sound like the device is straining.I don't think that I'd use it that way myself, however. The ball-like things inside were really uncomfortable on my back due to the amount of pressure at those points. (I wasn't very careful where I placed them during the experiment.) I'd have no such concerns about using it in Vibrate mode while laying on it.

I'm a side sleeper. Very comfortable! I can't speak to trying it on your stomach. I have never done that.

I think so, but don't know that for sure. Have not used it that way. Do you mean lay it down, then a person lay on their back on top of it? or the other way: a person on their stomach ? I think it is best used sitting in a chair.
