Fftermarket heated steering wheel effectiveness compared to OEM

Those of you with aftermarket heated steering wheels: how would you compare the heating element effectiveness to OEM? I use my heated steering wheel all the time, but just realized that the AE special heating quality may not be as good.

Can't speak for everyone, but mine gets just as hot as the OEM wheel and the heating seems pretty well distributed throughout the yoke when I've got it on.

Is that a MY with a yoke? I always wondered what that would be like. I hear the cars that come with yolks provide extra steering response with low input at low speeds. Since the Y is not designed that way, I wonder how it drives when you have to say....suddenly turn the wheel to full lock.
