I’ve used this blanket every winter since 2018 and it’s *still* going strong. I have a memory foam mattress topper on my bed that goes rock hard when the air gets cold, and I used to lay there shivering for like an hour before my body heat would eventually warm me enough to sleep. Now, I just turn this blanket on the highest setting about 10 minutes or so before bed, and it warms the entire area up beautifully so that I can fall asleep right away. The thing to know about this blanket is that while it’s soft, the wires that run through it are definitely noticeable, so I usually put it above the top sheet so it’s not directly on my skin. For that reason, it’s a great bed blanket, but I personally wouldn’t curl up with it on the couch.
It has a single controller for adjusting the heat on a scale of low to 10 — I usually start at 10 and turn it down to 7 or 6 as the night goes on, as it does get quite hot. It also shuts off automatically after 10 hours as a safety setting, and I’ve never once had an issue with it getting *too* hot or causing any damage. In my experience, it’s been a reliable blanket that made me stop dreading getting into bed during those frigid winter months.
Promising review: “This has been godsend for my heating bill, due to my always-cold wife. My kids love it, and I’ve even crawled up under it.” —Matt
