Default Ultratherm heatmat reviews?

Has anyone used the ultratherm heatmats? Are they safe to use? Looking at getting some but can't find any reviews for them. I'm a little bit concerned that they may not provide enough heating in the winter because it does get cold in my room. And why are they so cheap?

I have several 7w (6x11") that came with my rescued royal. They've been sitting in the garage for a couple of years but I've been trying them out over the past week in the hatchling rack before the little squigglies arrive. Seem fine - before the stat was set properly I had no problems overheating the tubs!!

Haven't heard of any problems with them and I would assume if used with a mat stat they are perfectly safe... although I personally use Microclimate
