FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

​How Do I place an order?

 

​When you arrive at Kozy Corn Sacks, you will be on the home page. Click the "Shop" category, select the corn sack(s) of your choice, then choose your free case for each choice, then click "add to cart". At this point you can continue to shop, perhaps an extra case or two, check for specials and then check out using most credit cards.

​

Do I really get a FREE Case?

​

YES!!!  You get a FREE Case with EACH Corn Sack you purchase.  (That does not include the Hand Warmers as the corn is filled into printed fabric sacks - no ticking.)  Please note on your invoice an alternative pattern if we are out of stock on your first choice.  After a few uses, body oils, grit and grime build up on the case, especially with multiple users.  We highly recommend purchasing at least one additional case, so you will have a fresh one to use while one is in the laundry. Check for any case special promotions.

​

How long do I put it in the microwave for?

​

Large & Medium Corn Sacks, Large (Adult) Neck Sack:  

4 minutes maximum starting at room temperature, it gets very hot.

​

Lumbar Sacks        3 minutes.   

  *Note:  Because the corn is evenly divided into 8 or 10 channels, these two sacks hold the heat or cold for about 1 1/2 hours, compared to the 4 hours or more on the bulk filled sacks.

​

Small Corn Sack and Medium Neck Sack:  Maximum 3 minutes

​

Small and X Small Neck Sacks:     2 to 3 minutes

​

NOTE:  Check heat before applying to body area.  If too hot it can burn the skin.  You can use a dish towel, or other light cloth as a barrier while it cools down.  There are no control buttons or switches, so please use some common sense when using the heated corn sacks.

​

Hand Warmers:  2 minutes MAX.

​

Why 100% Cotton Fabric?

 

Any other fabric has a greater risk of getting too hot, even catching on fire in the microwave.  100% cotton is the safest fabric to use for the inner sack (ticking) and outer case.  

 

Does the corn ever pop?

​

You will hear an occasional pop the first few times you use

your corn sack.  But you will not have Popcorn!

​

Does the corn sack have an odor?

​

The first few months it might smell a bit like popcorn, "yum".

​

What happens if the corn sack gets wet?

​

The slipcover is washable,  NOT the corn sack. If it has minor dampness, let air dry for a day then microwave as normal. If it is very wet it will need to be discarded, the corn cannot recover and will rot.

​

Can the corn sack be used as a cold pack?

​

Yes, you can keep it in the freezer (great for inflammation and headaches), and it also helps to extend the life of the corn sack when not in use.  It is a gentle, pleasant cold.  Not harsh!

​

How long will the corn sack last?

​

Using outer cases extends the life of the corn sack as it is a barrier blocking body oils, dirt and grime from building up on the inner casing.  Many customers report theirs lasting well over 10 years before needing to be replaced. That is a great ROI!!!!

​

What about using them for pets?

​

Perfect for warming pet beds.  Heat, then cover with a towel or light throw when placed in the sleeping quarters.   The towel/throw creates a barrier, while extending the warmth time.

​

How long does the corn sack stay warm?

​

If you put the corn sack under the covers it will stay warm 4-6 hours sometimes longer.  The lumbar corn sacks last for approximately 1 1/2 hours depending on body weight and condition
