Buyer Guide Heated Blanket

Your heated blanket can be a lifesaver in cold weather. But which blanket should you buy? And how much should you pay for it?

• Price. Most heated blankets are priced between $50 and $300. While you can find better deals online, you can also find them at better prices at a local store (like Wal-Mart).
• Size. Most blankets are available in sizes from twin to queen.
• Weight. Heated blankets usually weigh between 3 and 10 pounds.
• Temperature Range. Most heated blankets have a temperature range between 80 and 110 degrees.
• Extension Cord. An extension cord is a must, especially for blankets that are larger than 2 feet by 2 feet.
• Plug Type and Voltage. Most heated blankets are plugged in via a standard 120V outlet. However, you may need a power adapter if you’re outside the United States.
• Check Customer Reviews. Look at the type of reviews each blanket has. Look for any bad reviews. If a blanket has a lot of negative reviews, it’s probably not a good buy.

How to choose Heated Blanket

Heated blankets are designed to provide warmth to your body, and different heated blankets come with different features. For example, some heated blankets are dually heated — meaning they have two separate heating zones that can be controlled separately.

• Cordless or corded? Some heated blankets are cordless, while others are plugged in. If you’re planning to use your heated blanket at home, a cordless option is ideal. Cordless blankets provide more flexibility for placement.
• How big is the blanket? Some heated blankets are larger than others, and some heated blankets are best for adults while other heated blankets are best for children.
• How warm is the blanket? Some heated blankets are designed to provide heating to the entire bed, while others are smaller and intended for your back or side.
• How does the blanket work? Some heated blankets have thermostat controls, while others have timer controls.
• What is the size of the heated mattress pad? The size and dimensions of the heated mattress pad are important when shopping for a mattress pad.
• What is the power of the heated mattress pad? There are three different power settings on heated mattress pads: low, medium, and high.
• Is it possible to turn off the heat? Some heated mattress pads have an automatic shut-off feature.
• How warm is the heated mattress pad? Some heated mattress pads work well for side sleepers, while others work well for back sleepers.
• Does the heated mattress pad come with a warranty?

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.
