Perfect for winter nights in, the Sienna is an affordable oversized blanket hoodie that comes in a generous one-size-fits-all design. Today’s hooded blankets are a world away from embarrassingly old, greying loungewear you wouldn’t be seen dead in. Our partnership with two finance providers allows us to help you spread the cost for up to 12 months. There’s the familiar extra large pouch pocket to the front for storing your essentials (why not stick one of the best hand warmers in there if you struggle with poor circulation when it's cold?

First up, we sought out the trusted opinions of Mumsnet users to get their feedback on the blanket hoodies they’ve tried, rate and would recommend to friends and family. Once you’ve introduced them to this super plush, fleecy blanket hoodie, it’ll be hard to get your little ones out. Ready for a comfy night in, this brand new Brentfords extra-long cosy teddy fleece hooded blanket is your new comfort buddy! It’s not the warmest one we tried (think late autumn chills rather than depths-of-winter, below-freezing temperatures) but we’d probably say this was the most practical, while this pale pink colour we chose (prettier in real life than our phone camera could capture) is about as ‘feminine’ as one of these items could get.Even better, it’s machine washable at 30 degrees, so it was quick and easy to clean when we could be convinced, somewhat reluctantly, to take it off.

Your biggest problem will probably be deciding which design to go for, as there are tens, if not hundreds to choose from (we lost count at 80), including animals, food, star signs – even ones from franchises like Harry Potter and Friends.Using independent recommendations from the Mumsnet forums – the largest online network of UK parents – along with feedback from authentic consumer reviews, we whittled down a shortlist that only features products of the highest quality. It's one of the lightest and softest ones we tested, feeling baby-soft against the skin, and it’s handy to be able to open it up if you get too hot, although it’s not as chill-proof as a regular hoodie. Coming in seven colours, there's not as much design choice as other brands, but overall we love the furry texture and cosy oversized fit. This original Oodie blanket in navy blue has a soft flannel fleece on the outside and warm sherpa fleece on the inside.
