Buyer Guide Heated Blanket

 Many factors go into choosing the best-heated blanket. To help you decide, I’ve put together this buying guide.

• Cost. Heated blankets vary in price, but you should expect to spend anywhere from $40 to $150 for one.
• Coverage. If you’re shopping for a throw blanket, coverage is less important. However, if you’re shopping for a sleeping bag or blanket, you’ll want to make sure it covers your entire body.
• Warranty. Most blanket manufacturers offer a warranty that varies from 1 to 5 years.
• Power. Most heated blankets have 1 to 3 heat settings, but if you’re shopping for a sleeping bag or throw blanket, having 1 to 3 settings will suffice.
• Features. Look for a remote control, digital control panel, or programmable timer. Also, consider checking out the blanket’s fabric quality.
• Size. Blankets come in various sizes, including twin, full, queen, king, and oversized.
• Accessories. Look for additional accessories, such as a bed sleeve, mattress pad, or travel bag.
• Benefits. Heated blankets are also known as electric blankets or electric

How to choose Heated Blanket

 When choosing a heated blanket, there are a few factors that you should consider:

• The size of your blanket. Depending on the temperature settings, heated blankets can range in weight from 5 to 25 pounds.
• The temperature settings.
• The length of the cord. Heated blankets offer numerous temperature settings, but you may want to check the weight capacity of your blanket before purchasing.
• The type of heating. Heated blankets come in two primary types: electric blankets and heated mattress pads. Electric blankets are usually made with an on/off switch, allow you to select the temperature level, and have a controller for timers. Heated mattress pads allow you to control the temperature, but do not have timers.
• Is the blanket machine washable? If you’re using a heated blanket regularly, you may want to buy a washable option.
• Is the blanket washable? Heated blankets shouldn’t be washed with regular blankets, according to Consumer Reports, because they can melt down your blanket.
• Is the blanket safe? Heated blankets are safest when plugged into a grounded outlet.
• Is the blanket certified?

What type of heating is used? Heated blankets use one of three heating methods:

• Electric blankets use electric heating elements to warm your bed.
• Heated mattress pads use electric heating elements to warm the bottom of your fitted sheet.
• Heated throw blankets use electric heating elements to warm the entire blanket.

How to Maintain Heated Blanket

 When shopping for a heated blanket, there are a few important features to keep in mind:

• Are heated blankets machine washable? Most heated blankets are machine washable, but be sure to check the care labels before throwing them in the washer.
• What type of heating mechanism do heated blankets use? Heated blankets typically use one of two heating technologies: electric heating or heat-pump technology. Electric blankets use electricity to warm blankets, whereas heat-pump blankets use liquid propane or electricity to warm a blanket through the transference of heat from the air surrounding the blanket.
• What size heated blanket do I need? Heated blankets come in many different shapes and sizes. It’s important to consider how much space you have available, whether you will be using your heated blanket on a bed or couch, and how long you will be relying on your blanket for warmth.
• Is my heated blanket safe? There are dozens of heated blankets on the market, and not all of them are safe. When you shop for a heated blanket, look for products with UL (Underwriters Laboratories) certification. These certifications ensure that heated blankets have passed various safety standards and that they are safe to use around children.
