HeatTrak Snow & Ice Heated Walkway Mat, 120 Volt Review

HeatTrak Snow and Ice Heated Walkway Mat, 120 Volt

We bought this item for our steep driveway, so that we can cut down on heavy shoveling during large snowstorms. It is enough to melt the snow to allow one side of your car tires to roll over and gain enough traction to get up the hill. The heat is barely noticeable. If you place a ball of snow on it it will not melt instantly but rather over 10-20 minutes. We keep this outdoors all winter and it is very sturdy. It is also very heavy to pull out from storage. If you are a petite person you will need another person to help you carry this out to the walk. For this winter we used it in front of our house to clear a walkway from the street to the front door. Melts snow perfectly and even dries a rim of concrete all around it. No more slipping on ice or slushing through snow!

The HeatTrak 24-inch x 10-foot Industrial Heated Walkway Mat is an electrically heated mat designed to prevent snow and ice accumulation around the home or facility.As opposed to the HeatTrak Residential Products which are made exclusively for residential use, the HeatTrak Industrial products are designed for areas with heavier foot traffic.

This is the second year I have bought this.I liked it so much, I bought it again this year. Unfortunetly, this winter has been unbearable,snow, snow, then some more snow.It did not hold up to all the shoveling and salt used this year. It did work great for the first 2 months, then had to take off what was left on the steps and put on new rug for the rest of the winter.

Just place over ice or snow-and away you go! Get out of the house without shoveling, salting or scraping! Rugged woven fibers grip to ice, snow and your shoes! Just place on walkway or stairs for improved traction even in the worst conditions. Flexible in sub-freezing temperatures. Use it every winter. 10'L x 18"W..

Ice Carpet (Set of 2) Mats Walkway Home Safety Review

I bought two sets of these based on others' good reviews. When I got them, I wasn't sure how useful they would be for my application for older dogs going down a slope with pavers, across deck, etc. The material is similar to thin cut cocoa mat and they come rolled up, so they didn't lie flat at first, but once they get wet with rain/snow, they will lie perfectly flat and are great. Before these, my oldest dog had been having a terrible time with slipping on the ice and wet wood deck this winter and my younger dog also slipped and fell running across the deck; both are doing well on these. I would highly recommend them!
