Product Information

Whilst electric blankets are designed to create a warm and cosy environment when getting into bed, they are not recommended for overnight use and should be turned off when getting into bed or set on a timer to turn off within a short while. 'Make sure to also use your electric blanket as the top layer, above any other blankets or duvets and do not lie or sit on it,' Hayley Thistleton at SleepSeeker explains.

Just because it’s super-snug and quilted doesn’t mean it takes ages to heat up either – Intelliheat+ technology ensures your bed is warm in just 5 minutes. And the same technology cleverly responds to temperature changes while you sleep, cooling down as you warm up, and vice versa. With dual controls to put paid to any arguments, there are 6 temperature settings to choose from to keep both of you cosy all night long. And the price to pay for this luxury? As little as 5p per hour to run. Now that’s worth it as far as we’re concerned! Also consider heat zones – this tends to come down to size, with double blankets and beyond boasting left and right zones so couples can set their own preferences. Dual control will help limit any sleep disruption too, giving the ability of warming one side of the blanket. Are electric blankets safe to use overnight?

Dreamland 16818 Antibacterial Double Heated Underblanket 150

If warm feet is the stuff dreams are made of, then you’ll be delighted with this blanket that has nine dedicated heat settings just for feet. There are nine for your body too, and nearly all warmed evenly. The heat zones weren’t as well-defined as others tested but the soft blanket fitted our mattress well, although the edges did start to curl a little after washing. Overall, it’s a great value buy. Measuring a generous 120 x 160cm, this large fleece electric blanket has a premium feel and boasts nine heat settings. Easy to use, it has a 10-minute heat-up time, with useful timers that go up in 20-minute increments. Moulding nicely to the body, this electric blanket stayed evenly warm, but the overall temperature did fluctuate by a few degrees at times. Its soft feel was maintained, even after washing. Look for electric blankets with auto shut-off timers, so they can’t be left running for too long. And, helpfully, machine-washable ones will make life easier all round. For example, a power of 100W is most common for an electric blanket.

To make your bed the snuggly haven you deserve this winter, there’s one bit of bedding you should invest in: an electric blanket. Tip: Preheat it on a low heat in advance, rather than blasting it on a high heat before you get into bed – this way you won’t use so much power. A heated mattress topper and blanket, this fleecy number distributed heat evenly, taking only five minutes to heat up. It has built-in foot warmth, but you can't adjust these settings. Bonus: it barely shrunk after going in the washing machine. Using its lowest setting, this electric blanket will cost just 2.7p to run for a full eight hours – making it one of the most energy efficient. It's soft to sleep on, has a good warmth distribution, heats up in 10 minutes, and the controls are simple to use. But be warned, it doesn’t have extra foot warmth settings.

How to wash an electric blanket

Treat yourself to this luxe design. Its temperatures were consistent, its LED-lit controls were intuitive to use and the fleece cover zips off easily for washing. Plus, there are nine heat settings, including for your feet, and the under blanket design fitted securely to our test mattress. Sweet dreams. Offering two controls for individual preferences, this electric blanket designed for couples will help your body maintain the same temperature throughout the night, resulting in an uninterrupted sleep cycle. This means running an electric blanket for one hour would cost just over 3p and around 27p a night (based on 8 hours of use), which is significantly cheaper than having your central heating on all night. For a smaller 50W or 60W blanket, running costs will be even cheaper. What sort of electric blanket is best?
