RugBuddy Reviews 158

Absolutely awesome product. Does exactly what it says it does! Also worth getting the underlay which is high quality in itself too. William is great and I highly recommend getting in touch with him if you have any questions. I've put my RugBuddy on a WiFi enabled timer plug so I can have the living room rug nice and toasty for when I start work every morning. Makes my narrowboat even more cosy :)

Clean, reliable and effective gentle heat

I decided to try a Footbuddy as I was sceptical about the concept, but fed up with our cold, old living room. in the NE of England. It has been ideal purchase. . I have thyroid issues and get cold easily. My husband hates being too hot. I have the Footbuddy plugged in with a timer on my side of the sofa over a large rug. It gently warms my feet, no draughts now and if I get too warm I simply move it away. I have central heating, but have not used the gas fire as supplementary heating in the room because the warmth from rug is enough in the late afternoon. Big plus is that It is very useful to move to other rooms when sewing in a room with an icy laminate floor or to a reading nook. This is exactly what I wanted and I can put it away in warmer months. I would like a less industrial grey or a neutral slip over cover, but am very happy with product so far. William has been very helpful and delighted that he isn’t AI.
A real human being selling his product.

Fantastic company to deal with, and fantastic product. I have three layers on top of the vinyl flooring under my dining room table: first, a Super Velvet Wool & Rubber Crumb Carpet Underlay (from a separate supplier); second, the RugBuddy and third, a low-pile rug. Clearly a winning combination, as it's transformed the area into a warm, cosy and inviting space. The cats absolutely love it too.

The rug buddy didn't seem to make a lot of difference to the temperature. If I lay down on the rug I could feel the warmth but even with it switched on for several hours it didn't make me feel warmer in the room.
Be warmer were very good about accepting the rug buddy back and refunding.

I must admit to being a bit sceptical about this product, but having had it for a few weeks now, I must admit to being won over and have no regrets. Don't switch this on and expect instant heat, it does take some time to warm up and feel the room temperature start to rise. At last my feet are nice and warm, it's such a wonderful feeling as I do suffer from poor circulation in my feet and as we can all testify, if you have cold feet, the rest of your body feels cold. The only reason the product doesn't get 5 stars is the price. It is a very expensive product so I'm hoping I get many years benefit from it to justify the expense.

Easy transaction, quick delivery, packaged well.
Utterly brilliant product. So pleased with my purchase and so's the cat!

Genuinely fantastic product and my cat absolutely loves it. Got the rugbuddy under rug thing and the non slip insulating layer. It's cheap to run and warms up the room beautifully. Only thing not so ideal was the shipping, very little communication and it just showed up one day. But product itself is awesome!

Great customer service. The product seems great! We had a very cold floor under our dining table and the mat has really warmed it up. Like a little patch of underfloor heating! Just the job. Tempted to get a second for winter under our living room rug.

I've been enjoying the foot buddy for about a month now and I must say it's made a massive difference in how comfortably I can work at home. My feet get cold easily, and if my feet are cold, I am cold. Now, I turn on my FootBuddy under my desk when I get up in the morning, and by the time I'm done with breakfast and coffee, it's nice and warm! I've also discovered on chillier days that if I take my slippers off but leave them on the FootBuddy, I can take the warmth with me when I get up from my desk. Soooo nice!

I'd tried purchasing a heated mat in the past from Amazon, but it turns out that cheap is cheap, and the thing didn't even last 30 minutes before sparking. Returned it and got my money back, and gave up on having warm feet for awhile. Months later I got tired of having painfully cold feet most of the time, so I decided to do a little extra research. That's how I found FootBuddy - due to a Google search for UK locally-made electric foot warmers.

While I was happy to find a UK company that makes heated floor mats, I was a little concerned about the cost. Was it really going to be worth it to have warm feet again? I did some additional research and could find nothing but good things said about RugBuddy, so decided that the cost was worth it if it meant having a reliable way to keep my feet warm that also supported local commerce.

I am not at all disappointed in my decision. Happy to recommend FootBuddy to anyone else who suffers from cold feet while working in their home office!

I was sceptical, especially at the cost, but thought its winter, I have tried everything I can but my feet and legs were still numb with the cold as the hot air pushes the cold down, and with no under floor heating, my toes were telling me enough was enough.

So I took a risk and now the feet are warmer than the body, on occasions too warm, so I turn it off and used the residual heat in the rug. This is my only gripe, I would love it to have a high medium low setting, but it’s not a deal breaker.

Good product supported by good service.
Makes it easy to do business.

What a fabulous product. Made our kitchen so much more cozy. We have a very cold, tiled floor. So we purchased the mat and thermal underlay and a big rug put them all together and magic, the room is transformed. You can really tell when it is switched on, heats up quickly as well, really pleased.

Bought a Footbuddy in January because my home office is chilly and no amount of layers would keep my feet warm. The Footbuddy has made a big difference - doing exactly as promised. Gentle warmth that keeps me comfy and almost no impact on my bill.
UPS had an issue delivering but William made sure that was resolved as quickly as possible.

Happy with the product. Easy to fit and works well.

After a year of enjoying my first rugbuddy I've recently purchased a second one. Last Christmas we all opened presents on the rug and everyone was amazed at the warmth they could feel.
I haven't turned on the heating so far this winter, I just have my 2 Rugbuddy and a dehumidifier in a 65sq m. space.
It's a ground floor flat and the floors are usually pretty cold, but with these underrugs you can comfortably walk barefoot. Ideal also for yoga practice or any other floor activity. You feel it the most when you are laying on it or touching it directly but it also takes away the chill in the air making the whole atmosphere very pleasant.
The under rug is well made, it feels sturdy and you can place chairs or tables on top. It's completely silent. It would be great if it had a timer incorporated, something like the ones electric blankets have, so it would automatically switch off after 4, 6, 8...hours or so.
I would definitely recommend this product!
The company is fantastic! William is extremely professional, honest and caring. He resplied promptly to all my emails and answered any doubts.
Excellent purchase and excellent experience.

Great product, perfect delivery

Great product, good service all round

I have an aircon unit in my garden office that blows heat but I wasn't able to work in the office for 4 to 5 months of the year as it was too cold due to the cold seeping through the floor and my feet and legs were freezing cold. This has all changed now with the addition of my rugbuddy (and also with the thermal underlay that I had installed under the thin carpet) and I'm now able to use the room all year around and my feet are toasty. The beauty is that the rugbuddy can be used not only under the desk but also under my chair.
