Good but really bad
The good: the concept is awesome - you push the button when you start getting ready for bed. The first 15 minutes the unit goes to high and the sheets are toasty warm when you hop in then the unit goes to the setting you selected. Both my wife and I found that LO or 1 was plenty! If you get up in the morning and forget to turn it off... it then turns off after 10 hours. All in all - terrific concept and warms things right up. The bad: the transformers... since the unit is DC there are transformer boxes that sit on the floor. The issue here with both transformers is the high pitch whine / buzz that they make when converting AC to DC. That sound is made worse by the on/off cycling that the unit does based on the temp setting (cycles off more on LO than on HI). There is absolutely nothing you can do to stop it short of unplugging. The awful: The manufacturer said some sound is "normal" and since both units do it - it must be normal. So - back to Amazon it went. Very disappointing because it was nice getting into bed with warm sheets - but then not being able to fall asleep because of the horrible sounds... well... you get the point.
