Warmer Electric Heated Throw Blanket - Extra Large 200 x 130cm Digital Controller - Timer, 9 Heat Settings, Auto Shutoff - Machine Washable

Product Information

At the Good Housekeeping Institute, our experts made up a double bed to test each electric blanket on, measuring how evenly temperature was distributed as well as whether the warmth fluctuated or remained consistent over an extended period of time, across different heat settings. We measured energy consumption, too. The more heat settings, the better. Whether you’re just looking for a little extra coziness for your movie night or genuinely want to be completely enveloped in warmth, a range of heat levels allows you to better customize that experience. Most of our selections on this list have three or more heat settings, with a maximum of 10. Auto-Off Functions Under blankets, for example, can run for up to eight hours, so you could opt for this at night instead of central heating, while a throw can keep you warm while working from home. What makes the controllers for this electric extra large heating blanket special are its 20 heating settings. Most controllers have only 3-5 different heating settings. Also, larger sizes of electric throw come with dual controllers.

All the electric blankets on our list come with varying heat zones and settings – some include extra foot warmth too.You will know what you should focus on when buying a large or oversized heated blanket. Also, you will read about the best models of oversized heated throws and their advantages. Those who have circulation issues or nerve damage, as well as those who are pregnant, are recommended to avoid the use of electric throw blankets. It’s a good idea to avoid using a heated blanket with small children and pets around, too. Also make sure that your heated throw blanket is a top layer only: Don’t sit on these blankets or crush them in any way because their internal heating mechanisms may get damaged. Heat Settings This Beautyrest oversized electric blanket is special due to its distinguishable ogee design. The oversized heated blanket comes in many different shades of blue color. The material is 100% polyester and also micro-plush that makes it soft. Though some of these heated blankets are indeed made for layering onto your bed, we still recommend avoiding sleeping with it on or burying it beneath other bedding. A heated blanket with an auto-off setting and/or timer will help prevent overheating and encourage safer use in case you nod off while it’s still on. Every heated throw blanket in this guide has an auto-off function, and we’ve denoted the maximum run time for each one. Material If you're worrying about your children staying well this winter, then it's understandable that you might be considering allowing them to get under your heated throw. These blankets are perfectly safe for children to use under supervision, but they're not recommended for under fives. They're also not safe for children to sleep with, as they should always be supervised when using a heated throw. How we chose the best heated throw

The heated throw comes in one size, oversized 60X70in. That size of the heated throw is larger than standard throws on the market. In that way, it is ideal for the bed that is queen or king size. In comparison to other available throws on the market, this throw is among pricier ones. That is due to its quality and the long history of the company that made the electric throw. Also, larger sizes are always more expensive. Note that dual control under blankets are plugged in on both sides, meaning they can use double the electricity versus those with a single control. How we test electric blanketsIn contrast, over blankets are meant for curling up under; they’re a more versatile choice as you can use them on the sofa or even at your desk if you work from home. Some even resemble a fleecy blanket, which not only feels extra soft against the skin, but will look good in your living room if you want to leave it out. Throws tend to have shorter operating times though – most we tried time out after three hours. Wearable electric blankets or heated ponchos The fabric of the throw is a special fake fur that is made out of 100% polyester. That fabric makes the large electric blanket look aesthetically pleasing. Also, it makes the heated large throw very comfortable and cozy. Whether you’re searching for an electric blanket for yourself, our single electric blankets are ideal. If you’re sharing with a significant other, our double electrical blankets and king-size electric blankets allow for extra sharing space, allowing you both to keep warm and cosy.

Since we are focusing on the manufacturers that offer large, extra-large, or oversized heated blankets and throws, they will be more expensive.
