Does this heat like a full flotation mattress with a flat heating unit under the mattress

Yes, it does. I used the heater from my 2 previous mattresses (I'm on my 4th mattress in 30 years) and never moved it. It is in the center under the safety liner. Also, there was no need to change the temp. setting on the heater.

Yes it does. However we were shocked by the 1st of the two units we purchased as while heating the wax the entire floor of the bath also melted spilling hot wax everywhere. We returned this unit as faulty to get a partial refund not including delivery. Returning both would have meant sending them back to US which would have cost significantly more than the refund. The lady these were purchased for has yet to try second unit as scared the same thing will happen

Yes it is completely flat. The edges are curved slightly to make the transition from bottom to wall but it is nothing to worry about as far as heat transfer is concerned.

I think so. Mine is outside, with a foam/ vinyl cover on top. With the blanket on, the heater comes on less. I put the bubble side down and trimmed it a bit larger than the top and it works well. I read on line that it is more energy efficient to keep it warm all the time vs turning it down to cool when not in use and then heating it all up again before using . I find this to be true also. I am not an expert.

Yes. The unit is not a traditional heating element heater. You can touch the unit and you will not get burned.

Nope, it is flat at the bottom just like the picture looks.The entire reason we bought this unit is that it is all SS rather than having a PTFE or other coating.We like it a lot and the flat bottom has been no problem.Use it about 2-3 times a week.

It is not uncomfortably warm. The combination of 1.5 gel and 2.5 memory doesn't allow you to really sink, deeply, into the mattress.

Yes. It is well-balanced, won't tip over, nor does the base get overheated. Nice little heater.

It has a complete plastic undercoating that completely protects the mattress from moisture or wetness. As far as heat transfer I am 95% sure the body heat needed will still transfer through to the mattress.

Mine eventually developed these weird floating things, I thought it was because it wasn't warm enough and let it heat up but there were still things floating in it. It was pretty disgusting actually. I wouldn't recommend purchasing this product...

Peggy, indeed it does. You can pick it up from the top, sides or bottom, where it doesn't even get warm. If you touch the front where the heat emanates, it will not burn you immediately; you would have to hold your hand against it for a second before feeling discomfort, and I imagine it would take several seconds before any harm would occur. I doubt if there's a safer design than this for a portable heater.

No this unit does not provide heat. It can act as a fan and as a cooling unit and does adjust cooling based on temperature.

totally!!! we love this and lay on it all the time, the only thing is, you have to move it around every 10 minutes or so to feel the heat, it has a sensor that wont get any hotter

Although it did heat the water I didn't like the idea of the heater that close to the plastic separator so I returned that one and got a slim one that sets at the bottom of the rank under a layer of gravel. I hope this helps.

Yes. The heating element is hidden in the bottom, so the liquid doesn't touch it directly.

From my recollection it gets warm but not hot. The heater blows out the bottom of the unit.

I didn't find that to be the case. The mattress is a little firm, but comfortable. Having put on a normal mattress cover and sheets, it did not feel too warm at all.
