Abstract
A seat heater includes: a base material; and a heater wire disposed on the base material. The base material has a fold-back portion projecting from an edge of the base material where a cutout portion is formed. The heater wire is disposed on the fold-back portion. In a state where the fold-back portion is folded back toward a base material side, a proximal portion of the fold-back portion is positioned inside the edge of the base material. With such a configuration, the seat heater whose temperature elevation performance is not deteriorated can be realized.
