Does it have an automatic shut-off?

Many units do not, so unplug it after use and never leave it on while sleeping.

Can I use it on my back as well as my neck?

Yes. The 32 x 25 inch shape drapes over the shoulders and lies flat across the lower back.

Is it machine washable?

Only if the cord and controller detach. Check the tag before washing, and never immerse the electrical parts.

How does it compare with a standard rectangular pad?

It covers the neck and both shoulders in one piece, which a flat rectangle does not. A small pad is easier to store and heats more evenly.

Does it need batteries?

No. It runs on a corded electric connection, so it must stay within reach of an outlet.

Our take on the Heating Pad for Neck and Shoulders 32 x 25 in

A corded electric heating pad sized 32 by 25 inches, shaped to drape over the neck, shoulders and upper back. The large cut covers more area than a standard rectangular pad, and the soft fabric feels comfortable against skin. It suits people with muscle soreness who want steady heat at a desk or on the couch. Owners like the coverage but many find the cord short and the heat uneven across the pad.
