A while back when I was suffering with a cold, my family bought this Wheat Warmer for me from a stall in the middle of a shopping centre. The salesman kept going on about how wonderful they were and how long they stayed warm for etc (typical salesman banter!!), so they bought this lavender one and paid £7.00 for it. When we later looked them up on the web, they seem to normally retail for around £8, so they got a good deal with this one. So what exactly is it? The best I can describe it is as being a sort of long wrap pillow. It measures 18 inches by 5 inches and is filled fairly full of wheat and lavender grains, so that the pillow becomes a sort of long ...  Read the complete review

A couple of years ago I got a pair of those microwaveable slippers for Christmas. The idea was good, as I really feel the cold and get quite miserable. The thing was they were quite impractical as they were really uncomfortable and just would have fallen apart if I had walked on them more than a couple of times. Afterwards I saw lots of microwaveable re heatbale htings, including blankets and cuddly toys. I decided to treat myself to this wrap/ blanket style thing. I chose this one from amazon as I was psending my dooyoo vouchers! The blanket is from Cotswold and comes in quite classy packaging which makes it ideal for a gift. It is wrapped in cardboard, ...  Read the complete review

I acually bought this wheat warmer as a christmas gift for my aunt after reading some positive reviews on it here at dooyoo and I bought it from amazon with my vouchers. When it arrived I was quite impressed with how it looked especially as I had only paid £7.95 for it and it looked and felt like a quality product that looked more expensive than what I paid for it. I put it away pleased with myself that I had started my christms shopping. A couple of weeks ago I had the cold and was feeling under the weather and I remembered the wheat warmer was upstairs in my cupboard and I decided to just use it for myself as I needed a little comforting. ...  Read the complete review

When I was pregnant with my daughter I started up with a very painful shoulder which initially felt like a pulled muscle but it got worse and worse until I couldn't even turn my head without being in so much pain that I would be in tears. The doctor wanted to put me on a course of tablets and assured me that it would be safe for my baby but I really didn't want to take the risk so I just coped with the pain. One afternoon at work a colleague brought me in a little sack and told me to pop it in the microwave, then place it on my shoulder and that should do the trick. I was a little baffled but as I was in so much pain that I was getting to the stage where I would have ...  Read the complete review

I purchased a Snowshill Wheat Warmer after visiting the Snowshill Lavender Fields in the Cotswolds. I am a big fan of lavender scents and find it an extremely soothing fragrance, and being an arthritis sufferer I thought this lavender infused wheat bag would be a good addition to my collection of self-help products. Please note, the item you can see in the photograph above is the wheat bag I own but it is double the length as all bags are folded in half for ease of packaging and transportation. Once you have removed the cardboard sleeve, you will find your wheat bag measures roughly 18 inches long and 5 inches in width. As I recall, the wheat bags ...  Read the complete review
