Tefici Electric Heated Blanket Throw, Fast Heating Technology,Soft Flannel Heating Blanket with 3 Heat Levels & 4 Hours Auto Off,Home Office Use,Birthday, 50" x 60"Moose Pattern

"Tefici Electric Heated Blanket Throw, Super Cozy Soft Flannel 50" x 60" Heated Throw"I did get this on sale, so the value is a little better than full retail.The first thing I noticed when removing it from the box is it's amazingly soft, very plush. It is very light weight though and not very thick so the wires can be felt through in the blanket. It heats very quickly but after a few minutes the heat seems uneven. The instructions don't indicate any additional thermostat or internal temperature control, but I was never left out in the cold. Without the heat feature it's not very warm in a cool room, but that's why it's heated.The controller allows three heat selections that seem adequate. It times out after four hours as a safety feature. I found myself wishing it had an adjustable auto-off setting of one or two hours but not everyone may feel the need.The AC power cord is a little awkward though. It's approximately 9'+ long, with the controller in the middle. It runs from the bottom of the throw to the electrical outlet of your choice. This puts the controller away from the user. So it must be drawn up to a comfortable location to use. The cord then runs from the bottom of the throw up to the user (to reach the controller) and back down to the outlet.Ideally there would be two cords, one from the blanket to the outlet, and one with the controller from the blanket to the user. Whether or not this is problematic will depend on the individual user.Using the throw is simple. One button press turns it on starting at the lowest heat. Each successive push raise the heat through each of the two additional heat levels. To turn it off you must cycle through the heat levels. It took a little getting used to as I would just click on/click off. But that just put me in the MED heat range. An LED indicates the power level (and that it's on, obviously).When the cord is removed from the blanket, the instructions say to connect it back before plugging into AC. If done in the reverse order the controller flashes a red LED and the throw won't heat. In this case unplug the cord from AC and then plug it back in. The LED goes out, the throw is off but ready for use.This behavior means it can't be used to be turned on with a smart plug. I wanted to do this to preheat the throw prior to bedtime. Not possible, but it does heat quickly. I still use it with a smart plug and this allows me to set an auto turn off time via a phone app, to less than four hours, as when napping. To turn the throw on, I have to power on the smart plug then turn on the throw. Slightly kludgy but it works for me.As long as the throw is plugged in, the controller is very slightly warm, even though it's "off", so nothing to be alarmed about.I liked this throw well enough that I bought a second one. So I have a bed throw and a couch throw. The product description mentions updated wiring for more even heating, but uses that in two different throws with two different controllers. I have one of each and am not sure which, if any or both are the updated version.All that said, I like these and would buy them again at the forty-dollar price, if one or both died (after a respectable life).

I am always freezing and this has been such a great addition to keeping me warm. If I had to give a ‘negative’ takeaway it would be that the cords get in the way. There are two cords instead of one and the cords tend to get in the way when I’m trying to move the blanket around. It’s likely so you can have dual control which is a plus but since I’m only using it for myself I don’t really need that feature. But honestly there’s not really a negative. It’s just my most critical part of the review. The cords are extra long which is nice! I love it!

Very soft and it heats evenly. I appreciate the long cord and the 4-hour cycle - MUCH better than my old one which had to be reset every 2 hours. I don't know yet about washing, but as far as what I wanted it for, it's lovely.

This served our family so well. When my loved one was in the hospital and was always feeling cold, this came in handy. Even the nurses asked where I go it

The first one did not heat evenly so returned it. The new one seems to be fine, soft and cuddly. Works well in a basement office. It was a gift.

Love this blanket... keeps me warm at the office. Definitely a good investment.

I only ever owned 1 other heated blanket in my life and it's made me a fan ever since. Although it lived a very short life, which is one of my concerns with this blanket, and took too long to heat up, which is definitely not an issue with this blanket, I don't think I could ever go back to a regular degular old blanket again.This blanket is very soft and more than enough for me to lay under at 5'8" and 180lbs. I just hope it lasts longer than 3 months because I will be using this VERY heavily.

Easy controls, soft, works good

Works great and very warm

Oui vraiment elle est parfaite cette couverture quelle douceur et la couleur est aussi très bien la chaleur est très bonne aussi sauf que la manette aurait dû être fait plus robuste mais bon à moi de lui faire plus attention pour la frapper hors du lit.Et qui sait peut être que sa résistance va me surprendre.

Pour ma conjointe frileuse elle l adore.

Love it. Good purchase

My old electric blanket never got warm enough and finally no heat at all. This vendor had great reviews, and shipped the next day. This blanket is a full twin size with a large heated area bordered by unheated area. The heat is exactly where I want it, and the low to medium settings does all I need, a huge change from the pitiful output on the highest setting on my old blanket. It is unbelievably soft, too. I love it, would buy it again, and thought the price very reasonable.
