I know some see these as essential, but I only ever turned them on once - felt distinctly pervy, like I was being touched in an improper way. I dont want a warm fuzzy feeling round my hoop.
Perhaps that says more about my fears than car gadgets, but even if I could get past that, then they re a bit "nursing home" aren't they? "Ooooh, are you warm enough dearie, shall I wrap you in a bit more?"
Just get off me.

The OH has been banned from using her V70 for the last month since we have a leased C1 and want to use up the mileage on that before it goes back (it also does 60+mpg).
The Volvo was released back for duty on Saturday and she was overjoyed - why? Heated seats were on full blast. She has them switched on even if it's scorching. Women = lizards.

What you want is heated AND cooled seats. warm in winter, cool in summer, marvellous 
Heated seats are great on cold mornings. I sometimes even turn the ac down a bit and stick the heated seat on for that warm fuzzy feeling. I have most of the heating set for the seat back and only a little for the base, a warm bum isn't as nice as a warm lower back.
Cooled seats are great too for when the cars been sat in the sun for a while.

I wish the tight b
d who originally specced my S60 had opted for them.
Wonderful things.
Car is well specced otherwise but no heated seats in a Volvo just aint on.
Not easy to add afterwards either
I also miss putting the passenger heater on full blast while the O/H isn`t looking: "Why is my arse getting hot?, Oh wait"

I take it the OP has never owned a car with leather/vinyl seats?
Yep, there are two of them now in the household, just like I said I dont like that hot poker feeling 
But I do understand the bad back thing, mine just heat up the squabs, can you get ones that do the back too? And mine dont cool either, now they sound awesome on leather.
