FAQs

How long does the heat last?

The heat typically lasts for 20-30 minutes, depending on the initial heating time and ambient temperature.

Can I wash the wheat bag?

No, the wheat bag should not be machine washed or submerged in water. Spot clean only with a damp cloth and allow it to dry thoroughly.

What is the warranty period?

Please refer to the retailer or The Wheat Bag Company's official website for specific warranty information, as this is not provided in the product description.

How do I know if it's too hot to use?

Always test the temperature on your forearm or the back of your hand before applying it to the affected area. If it feels too hot, let it cool slightly.

Can children use this wheat bag?

Children should only use the wheat bag under strict adult supervision. Ensure the temperature is appropriate and safe for their skin.

How should I store the wheat bag when not in use?

Store the wheat bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, ideally in its original packaging or a breathable bag.

Is the lavender scent natural?

Yes, the bag is filled with natural lavender buds, providing an authentic and calming aroma.

Troubleshooting

Wheat bag does not heat evenly.

Ensure the bag is placed in the center of the microwave turntable and rotate it halfway through heating if possible. Break up any clumps of wheat inside the bag.

Lavender scent is too strong or too weak.

Scent strength can vary. For a weaker scent, air the bag out for a few days. For a slightly stronger scent, consider a very light mist of water (ensure it dries completely before heating) or purchasing a new bag.

Bag feels damp after heating.

This indicates it may have been overheated or not fully dried before heating. Allow the bag to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area before attempting to reheat.

Fabric feels stiff after cooling.

Ensure the bag was placed in a plastic bag before freezing to prevent moisture absorption. Allow it to return to room temperature.
