Product Information

For the comfortable, perfect heat and a well-thought-out design, this one gets five stars from us. The only downside is the high price. Unlike electric throws, which are designed to be laid on top of the bed or snuggled up with on the sofa, electric blankets lay flat on your bed underneath your sheet. They contain lots of thin wires inside the fabric; the blanket is then connected to the mains electricity to gently heat up the entire bed. It fits easily over the bed with elastic straps on the four corners. One minor niggle, however, was that we found that the ‘lip’ around the edge of the blanket stopped our sheet from fitting quite so smoothly. Electric blankets should also be replaced if the fabric is worn or frayed, wires are poking through or the electrical cord is damaged, say the London Fire Brigade. Can you wash an electric blanket?

With elastic straps, this fits well over the bed, lying flat over it all except the head area (worth noting if you want a blanket that covers every inch of the mattress).

Electric Blankets and Heated Throws

Pros: Dual control, tactile control buttons, stays warm for a while, overheat protection and safe for all-night use We loved its super-speedy five-minute warm-up time (by the time you’ve cleaned your teeth, it’ll be ready to go), well-positioned cord connection and good cable length, and three timers: one, three and nine hours. It also fitted perfectly flat on the bed, with elastic straps to loop around the mattress.

If we had one complaint, it’s that it does take a while to warm up, and any setting lower than number five can’t really be felt, but this was one of our favourite electric blankets that we, set to become a staple on our beds this winter.HEAT SETTINGS & 10 HOUR TIMER: Choose between the heated throws 10 different heat settings and programmable 10 hour timer to perfectly meet all your heating needs. Whether you are watching a movie on the sofa or relaxing in bed, our heated blanket will keep you perfectly warm and cosy. It’s also potentially the most cost-effective of the lot, with Silentnight claiming this costs just 1p in electricity to heat up your bed. In gorgeous complementary tones of grey and red, this silky smooth Velvety Heated Throw is perfect for cheering up your home – and you, as you snuggle under it, toasty warm, on a winter evening. Or, given that this is Britain, on a spring, summer or autumn evening...
