Handy Solutions heating pad recalled for possible burn risk

The Handy Solutions Neck & Shoulders Heating Pad (model 25607) can overheat and cause burns if folded while in use or placed under your body. When folded, the device's safety temperature sensor cannot detect the excessive heat, so it does not shut off. The pad may emit a burning smell before melting or catching fire.
