The Best Blanket I've ever had!
By Tina from GivingNSharing Blog from Omaha, NE on 12/29/2010
I used a gift certificate to purchase this item this fall - and it's been the best purchase I've made. It's extremely soft and thick and even when I don't use the heat feature, I've been plenty warm enough (at 30 degrees on up). I usually turn it on about an hour before I go to bed and the power turns off after 10 hours automatically so I don't have to worry about forgetting to turn it off when I leave (there's an off switch when I get to hot).
I live in a very cold apartment and I have loved using it this winter! The blanket comes with a heating element that can be adjusted to whatever level of heat you need. I generally choose about an 7/8 but have also used it on the HI level and find that's usually too much for me.

When I first received the blanket I was a little concerned because altho there are cords that wind in rows throughout the blanket it doesn't seem to warm up in the center, mostly on the outer edges. I don't know if that's normal or not, but I do stay plenty warm and that is the goal.
The instructions that came with this blanket state that it can be washed which I haven't tried yet. To be honest I'm a little scared to, but I'm sure there won't be any problem since the main power cord won't be attached. It also states it can be dried.

You can purchase a Biddeford Blankets Knit Microplush Warming Blanket with Digital Controller - 200D if you are interested. It comes in several sizes (I purchased the full size), twin size to king size. The Queen and King Size comes with dual controllers so 2 people can comfortably set the temperatures on each side to fit their needs. I actually found out about this blanket on another blog through their review.

I have a heated throw that was given to me as a gift last year but would love something a bit bigger.
ReplyDeleteI too also have one that the heat isn't in the middle...don't quite understand that myself.
I was sooo scared to wash mine, but I did. :)
then I felt i needed to wait a good looong while before trying it again...lol
It works just as well as it did before. :)
Thank you for the review..I may have to try one of these out! :)
