Since taking a drug that slowed my heart, I have problem with cold extremities, especially the feet! It is true that the design is far from successful, but even without connecting to the mains, the Chancellor warm little feet. The big thick foam insulates the soil very well and this is probably the most important thing The removable liner is a little too much: 4 snaps and there is no problem. Really happy with my purchase, and as usual very fast delivery with Amazon
