With autumn and winter fast approaching, now is the time to treat yourself to an electric blanket that’ll keep you feeling warm and cosy during cold nights. If you find your body temperature varies in different places, or you and your partner prefer differing levels of heat, Amazon is selling the perfect option which means you don’t have to compromise.
The Slumberdown Sleepy Nights Electric Blanket has dual controllers with seperate foot controls, meaning you and your partner can personalise the right level of temperature for both body and feet. Amazon is currently offering the blanket at a discounted price, with the double sized version costing £65.45, down from £77.
The gadget has a handy timer and nine heat settings so you can find the perfect temperature to suit your body to ensure you sleep comfortably. The blanket will help you cut down on your energy bill, as it costs approximately 3p per hour to run on the highest heat setting.
The electric blanket is also ideal if you suffer from sore and aching joints, as the heat will help to dull the pain. Slumberdown’s Sleepy Nights Electric Blanket is also available in single, king size, and super king size, and there’s a three-heat version if you don’t require as many temperature options.
It comes with a two-year guarantee and has an Auto Shut Off feature to prevent overheating, giving you peace of mind. Over 3,000 Amazon shoppers have reviewed the gadget to date, with over 2,000 of them awarding the blanket five stars.
One delighted customer said: “I love this heated blanket because it’s so warm, heats up very quickly and has separate functions for your body and your feet which is fantastic for my restless leg syndrome and my fibromyalgia. It is very easy to use and is comfortable to sleep on – it almost has a quilted texture so you cannot feel the wires in the blanket at all. I highly recommend this to help with pain management as well. Why I never invested in one of these sooner I have no idea, but I’m so glad I have now.”
A second wrote: “Lovely and warm. Heats up quickly without scorching and is easy to install with the sewn on straps. It’s much more comfortable than other brands, as you can’t feel the heating elements. It costs me less than 2p an hour.”
A third added: “Could not have been without this in winter, it’s like heaven getting into bed. We put it on for half an hour or so before bedtime and switch off when we get in. Cheap to run, only a few pence per hour.”
Sadly one buyer wasn’t completely satisfied with the electric blanket, as they explained: “Disappointed that the settings are not remembered and have to be reset every time it’s used. We mostly use the same settings and our previous blanket remembered them… It is only a minor issue but is slightly irritating.”
