- Suitable for use in the home, garage, porch, kennel or pet house.
- Place the Lectro-Soft directly on a hard, flat surface in your home or inside a doghouse or kennel. The area chosen should be sheltered from direct rain or snow.
- Pull out the air valve on the bottom side of the bed. Plug into 110 - 120 volt AC outlet while the air valve is still released. Allow 15 to 30 minutes for the Lectro-Soft™ to begin to warm and fully expand. The unit will feel slightly warm to the touch.
- After desired expansion, push down on the center of the bed to remove a little air. Then push in the air plug to seal the bed. This will prevent a ballooning effect when your pet is enjoying the bed.
- After initial warm-up, your Lectro-Soft will feel cooler to the touch. This is the intention for energy efficiency. When your pet lies on the bed, it will warm to a comfortable temperature in even the coldest of weather.
- The Lectro-Soft Outdoor Heated Bed does not inflate, as many people believe. After opening the air valve, you will not notice a big difference in size, but the bed will expand slightly. All the air is removed from a Lectro-Soft bed when vacuum packaging it for shipment. Opening the air valve allows air back into the bed, which helps the inner foam gradually expand to its original size. This process can take up to 24 hours, depending on how long the bed has been vacuum packed.
- Wash the faux fleece cover on the gentle cycle with cold water, then line dry. The bed can be cleaned using a damp towel or sponge and mild dish washing detergent. Do not wash in a washing machine.

Can I bend or fold the Lectro-Soft to make it fit my pet's house?
The Lectro-Soft should not be bent or folded. We only recommend placing it on a flat, stable surface.
Does the Lectro-Soft use a lot of energy when plugged in? I'm worried about high electricity costs.
Depending on size, the Lectro-Soft only uses only 20, 40, or 60 watts. It's an energy efficient product that consumes very little electricity.
What material is the Lectro-Soft Cover made of?
The top is a soft faux fleece while the bottom is made of an open weave fabric that allows the heat to pass through.

Good for supplemental warmth
By p1003 on Oct 10, 2021
This works okay in a small decent shelter, at least in Western Oregon. Like someone else said, it's a low grade heat at 20 Watts for the small pad. Electrical efficiency is roughly the same for all resistance-type heaters, so fewer Watts = less heat. For a 20W heating pad, pricing has had some large variance. More so than the medium, which has been the same or lower price. Maybe part of that is popularity and time of year, along with an imported stuff binge stressing weak supply chains.

My little backyard feral is using this
By lbcos on Oct 17, 2021 top250Contributor
It doesn't get all that cold here, but since we are all used to such warm weather even the animals don't like even a bit of cold. I have two chaise lounges where I put this warmer and another that I bought previously. The old one is a solid board and it does get warmer than this new one, but Gracie likes them both. She seems to use the warmer one when she is cold then switches to this new one is she is not so cold.

Did not work well
By Carol on Sep 24, 2021
When I bought this I thought it would be great for my cat durring the winter, but it's barely warm. My cat hates it, the top is cold and doesn't heat the fleece, and the bottom is warm but doesn't retain heat if you flip it over.

great comfort for catio cats
By Luckypup on Aug 6, 2021
My sister passed and her three cats needed to come to my home. They have never been around dogs though and needed some extra space for an adjustment period. We screened our side porch and set up a catio for them. It can be cool on that side of the house so I purchased these heating pads to place in their beds. They use them all day long and it also makes me feel better that they are more comfortable. The pad comes with a washable cover. The cord is protected for safer outside use.

Didn't stand a chance.
By JulietDog on Oct 2, 2021
So the dog just ripped the pad right off the chord. So disappointing. Lasted 1 entire night in her house. Have to find a quality heating pad meant to withstand an animal.

Cat Approved
By tortieiris on Aug 21, 2021
My cat kept sleeping on my boyfriend’s Xbox because she loves how warm it is… but ever since I got this heated bed for her she loves it so much that doesn’t sleep anywhere else.

K&H Lectro Soft Outdoor Heated Pad
By None on Oct 16, 2021
My two outdoor cats loved it last winter inside the cat house. So did the possum who eventually took over!

Little misleading - but good for indoor use
By Quin on Jul 24, 2021
My pets do not destroy this, and my cats love the consistent heat, and no one has been burnt by it. Self-regulates quite well. The cover is removable for washing but I haven't had to wash it. The instructions say it is not to be used outside... so... it got repurposed for indoors.

Heated outside pad

Bought this for my outside feral cats. They love it and makes life a little easier for them to survive.

Very nice indeed
By Diane on Aug 4, 2021
Works very well giving low grade warmth for my cats. I use it inside on my bed (near the foot) and the cats love it.
