Product Information

If you buy your blanket from a reputable UK retailer, as we did for our tests, then it should be safe. If you're worrying about your children staying well this winter, then it's understandable that you might be considering allowing them to get under your heated throw. These blankets are perfectly safe for children to use under supervision, but they're not recommended for under fives. They're also not safe for children to sleep with, as they should always be supervised when using a heated throw. How we chose the best heated throw Heated throw blankets emit heat via coil wires that provide a steady source of warmth when plugged into an electrical outlet. Each heated throw blanket has a controller, a built-in timer, and a temperature control gauge. That means it will only go as warm as you want it to. The timer means the heat should cut off after a specified time of your choice, so you don't need to worry if you fall asleep while snuggled up in it. How much does it cost to run a heated throw?

Size and coverage: Make sure the throw is large enough to cover you comfortably. If you want one you can snuggle up under with your other half or kids, make sure you go for a large size so there's space for everyone.As part of our test, we washed and tumbled dried each of the blankets five times after testing, and then conducted a full electricity safety test. All the blankets passed.

The blanket claims to be perfect for solo snuggling or shared cocooning. It also doubles up as a deluxe living room accessory. It promises to heat up in five minutes, with six temperature settings and an auto shut off timer. It’s also machine washable and tumble dryer safe; simply detach the digital control.

Fortunately, Lidl has announced the return of its heated throw so homeowners can stay for without spending too much on their heating and energy bills.
