Comfort A panel of five volunteers assesses each electric blanket and heated throw for comfort. There is quite a big difference in how snuggly each one is and underwires are more noticeable in some of them. For electric blankets, we also assess how easy each one is to attach to a mattress and how comfortable each one is to lie on under a fitted sheet. For a more luxurious blanket, we have this electric cashmere blanket. This super soft blanket is perfect for those days indoors snuggled up on the sofa, and it can reach up to 60 degrees, so you won't even need to put the heating on! Are Electric Blankets Safe?There are also some incredible economic benefits to owning an electric blanket. Costing just pennies to run, sandwiching yourself between your electric blanket and duvet is a low-cost way to keep you toasty warm throughout the night. Much better than relying on the central heating to warm the whole house, when settling down for the night, a cost-efficient electric blanket might be just what you need. Heated Electric Throws

Durability After testing, each electric blanket and heated throw is washed and dried five times to simulate wear and tear. We then conduct a full electrical safety test on each one. None showed significant wear and tear, and all passed the test. On chilly winter nights, what better way to keep cosy and warm than with an electric blanket or heated throw? Costing far less than you might think to make sure your bed is the perfect cosy temperature for a better night’s sleep, a heated blanket is just one option if you’re on the hunt for something that can help you get a great sleep. If you've got a long car journey to make, then treat yourself to this electric travel blanket! The soft blanket will ensure you stay nice and cosy, and will help you drive in comfort. You can plug it straight into the car cigarette ignition, so you'll be kept nice and warm for the whole journey. Electric Cashmere Blanket
