I utilize this item to deliver around 1000 Meals on Wheels meals per day. This is the only product on the market that works like this and fits in the tote bags, but they don't stay hot for very long, and it seems the packaging has changed in the last couple of years. We've had a number of them open up and the element falls out. For the cost of these, I would expect it to be fort knox and it should for sure stay hot for quite some time. They stay WARM, but don't retain heat as well as it really needs to.
However, being as this is what is available, we manage. It's definitely better than the tiny heat packs and certainly more affordable than the ones that have to be plugged in, when we are sending out 75 routes per day.
Thank you for your review, Michelle! We would like to gather more information about your experience with this heating element. A Customer Solutions Representative will contact you soon.
