Biddeford Heated Blanket with Electric Analog Controller, Queen, Linen

FYI I JUST purchased this blanket, so cannot comment on durabilty. Analog vs. Digital display: But, I was raised on electric blankets...I love them! Many have the new LCD display, which looks pretty, but they only light up the display for a minute or so. Well, I want to wake up and not have tp push mutiple buttons (while drowsy) just to see if it is on/setting! This "analog" blanket is perfect. the dial stays lit the entire tome is is on, and the spin function is fantadtoc to adjust heat when drowsy,versus search for up down buttons. (And the lights are a pretty blue, so it looks more high tech/modern.) Plug-ins: Wow wow wow. most queens/kings have 2 controllers, but one plug in on the blanket. This can be frustrating as you have to flip the blanket/watm it to make sure you have the controls on the correct side. THIS blanket not onlyhas 2 controls, but they are completely seperate units, and the blanket has 2 ports...one for each plug! Fantastic 2 people who might not run as cold as one another. I want an electric blanket, husband runs hot. I simply do not plug his in. Fabric: Ok, as mentioned, I LOVEelectric blankets. In the past I splurged on gorgeous velvety electric blanket. Expensive but SOOOO pretty and luxurious. In the end? I HATED it. Way too hot, even if off. If you have someone that runs hot? Even worse. I grew to hate that blanket, even though 4 times the cost of this one. This blanket is more traditional fleece. Yes, I am sure it will pill down the road. But it is SOOO much better on dual person temperature control. If you have a partner that wants there side off, this is not too hot. I definitely preferthis fleece fabric to velvet or velour. Heating: Ok, most of us have probably had a tepid eletric blanket, that is never warm enough. This one heats up beautifully though.....plenty toasty, even hot, at top setting, with lots of temperatures inbetween. Bottom like, A so far...I even had my mom buy one. I have bought electric blankets for decades...including snazzy ones (even a wifi/cordless one) that all disapointed. This little guy is affordable, simple to use, great on heat, great controls, and so far SOOOO much better than the "fancy" electric blankets I tried....I love it!
