I love the hand warmers from Ocoopa for many reasons,” says Lynn Wunderman, who not only has Raynaud’s but is also the founder and chairman of the Raynaud’s Association. “First, they are a reputable brand, so I trust their products to perform well and be safe. Also, they offer several different models that vary in size, shape, colors, features, weight, and more, so you can select the one (or ones) that are best suited to your needs.” When you are relying on rechargeable hand warmers to keep your hands warm during cold temperatures, you need to make sure they have sufficient battery life—especially if you are going to be using them for an extended period of time. You also may want to consider how long they take to charge.

Make sure [you buy from] a reputable manufacturer,” suggests Wunderman. “This is important for anyone buying a rechargeable hand warmer or any heated accessory or apparel. If the manufacturer takes shortcuts in the materials or production process that could result in overcharging or overheating or can’t be found to stand by a warranty on the unit, it’s not worth the savings.” If the duration of time isn’t of any concern to you, electric hand warmers are the way to go. These help save the planet as well—for example, if you’re going out on a dog walk and don’t need 10 hours of warmth, heated gloves are perfect for this use,” Roberts says.

How We Selected the Best Hand Warmers

The size and weight of hand warmers can vary. Larger, heavier warmers may provide longer heat times, but can be difficult to carry while staying active. Smaller, lighter weight options (like Survival Frog’s Rechargeable Hand Warmer) may be more practical for activities like running or skiing. Hand warmers are a must-have for outdoor activities in the winter.Any person with fragile or thin skin needs to be careful using hand warmers because they are more prone to injury,” Gupta adds. “You also should not fall asleep using them. And you would not want to use a hand warmer if you have an acute traumatic injury. In those situations, ice or cold is more beneficial than heat.” Benjamin Bring, DO, a family physician who specializes in sports medicine and osteopathic manipulation at OhioHealth Then, we researched dozens of hand warmers from the most trusted and popular brands. We considered the type of warmer, the quality, and the price. We also evaluated them based on size and weight, heat duration, heat source, maximum temperature, and how much time they take to charge. First, we consulted the Mumsnet Talk forums, where we found lots of Mumsnetters looking for ways to keep warm this winter. We made a note of any types and brands of hand warmers that had good recommendations as well as those that had not impressed our users. We value an honest review and we know we will always get those from the real parents on the boards. That said, these gloves run a bit big and may not be suitable for small hands, especially if you intend to use them for sports like cross-country or downhill skiing. They also have a large power button that is located on the front of the glove that could get pushed by accident during vigorous outdoor activities. They’re also pricey, which might be worth it if you use them frequently, but for occasional use, it’s probably not worth it.
