Sunbeam Fleece Electric Heated Channeled Blanket, 1 Each

I read the previous reviews before I made my purchase(s); I ordered 4. Gave three as Christmas presents, and they LOVED them too. I'm glad I read the reviews, because I purchased all twin size (even though they are being used on queen size beds) and they fit from edge to edge on the mattresses. Which is perfect, not trying to heat the sides of the bed anyway. I placed mine on the top fitted sheet, and we sleep on top of it. Keep it set at "3" for the full 10 hours and it is just cozy, not to hot and not to cool. Super soft next to the skin. You cannot go wrong with this blanket.

I bought 5 blankets- all the same brand and style. 1 king, 1 full, and 3 twin. They do work well and the controller looks just like the one in the photo, however after reading the description of the "Thermofine warming system senses and adjusts temperature to deliver consistent warmth all night", it led me to believe it has a thermostat of some sort. It doesn't. You set it at whatever level you want for the night and it stays there all night. No change up and down to automatically adjust the temp. as it says. Also, it says there is a "preheat mode". Not true. The book says some models have this, but these do not. Neither of these issues really make it a bad electric blanket though. I just thought I was getting a fancier blanket than they turned out to be. So far it has gotten down into the 30's where we live and we set the thermostat in our house 68 at night. I turn the blanket on the lowest setting to warm up before bed and usually have to turn the blanket off completely a short time after we get in bed or its too warm. The added weight of the blanket alone makes our bed so much warmer we really don't need the higher settings at all. maybe later in winter that will change. We do like the blanket and I would buy it again. The auto shut off is really nice since I don't have to make rounds every day turning them off in our kids' rooms. Great blanket, just not quite what I expected by reading the product description.
