I live in Tarpon Springs, Florida less than a mile from the Gulf of America. We do have pretty mild winters but temps sometimes get down in the 40s or even 30s at night. I have had and used an electric blanket on my bed in the winter for the past 15 years. The one I had finally wore out and did not heat up much. I did spend quite a bit of time checking out different brands and types for me King Size bed and decided on this one. Blanket arrived nicely packaged. Quality seems to be nice and blanket is soft. Some reviews said the size was rather small. I have a normal size King bed and the blanket covers the bed nicely. Placed it on the bed today and tested it. I like the controls and the blanket warmed up nicely. Looking forward to getting to bed tonight! So far very pleased.

This is a very supple well constructed, lite weight, queen size blanket. I wanted a 4 zone blanket with separate controls for each. Can only find that in a matress cover which I didn't want. Both controller connections are located at the foot of the bed corners. I turned the blanket sideways with the connections on the left side of the bed and walla, I have an upper and a lower zone. I'm the only one sleeping in the bed so having the wires connect on the left side is no issue. The connections are on top of the blanket and 10 inches from the edge. Just went thru a cold week with temps in the -15 degrees and very comfortable with the lower control set on 4 and the upper control on 2. Max setting is 10. I have one sheet under the blanket and no other blankets above and room temp was about 58 degrees. This week, night temps are 30 above zero and the lower control is set at low and the upper control is off, and that is with the room door closed to restrict the house heat and running a ceiling fan. If I couldn't run the blanket, my feet would be too cold. So, I wish the blanket had a little lower setting.The chord from the blanket connection to the controls is long enough to go from the rear of the bed to the front up over the headboard.The numbers on the controls are bright. If I close my eyes, I don't notice them. And when I want to make a change at night, I can see the numbers.The blanket is supposed to be put on the bed with the label up only. And you are not suppoed to put other blankets on top of it. I can't imagine you would need more than this blanket to keep warm.The blanket warms up quickly at night. I turn it on, prepare for bed undress and bathroom, return to the bed and it is fully warm. Can't say enough good about it.

Very light weight and soft. The controller is easy to use and the blanket is warm. I keep it on setting two “2” and am more than warm enough. I did throw a light weight spread over the top, just to give it a little more weight during the coldest temps. Love this blanket.

This is a great lightweight electric blanket for use in cool climes but I will need something more substantial with a little weight and more warmth for winter naps on my couch. It is a very soft and luxurious feeling blanket and does heat up to a moderate level. For example, the control goes up to a 7 and then you get an "H" for high but it doesn't exactly feel any hotter than the 7. The timer option is a nice addition.

First of all, I ordered a "Westinghouse Heated Blanket" on Amazon, but the box that arrived here calls the contents a "Warming Blanket," which sounds more like a throw-- since the common usage for a heated cover for a bed is "Electric Blanket." But the drawing on the outside of the box clearly shows a bed, with the coverlet laid on top of the bed. And since there is a "controller" with heat settings, which is on a long cord designed to permit its being on a bedside table (which is clearly portrayed in the drawing on the box), despite the odd name on the box, this item is supposed to be used as what normal parlance would call an electric blanket. However since it was "MADE IN CHINA" my reliance on and confidence in the Westinghouse name was wildly misplaced, and what I received has been very disappointing.The strangest aspect of this item is that you can only put it on the bed in ONE WAY, and if your bed has an outlet to the left of the bed rather than to the right of the bed, you are screwed. Their instructions make this very clear (and so does the drawing of the bed with the coverlet, which is repeated four times-- once on the front of the box, once on the back of the box, and again on each of the two long sides of the box-- Just in case you miss it !! ) The written instructions which come inside the box say that you are to place the heated blanket (yes, they at least got the language right there) on the bed "with the label at the foot of the bed and facing upward". (HOW WEIRD IS THAT?]. There is a full page of diagrams, with the bed shown in the middle diagram. That diagram shows the label (labeled "LABEL" in capital letters on the drawing) on the portion of the blanket which is hanging down at the foot of the bed like a bedskirt would, on the LEFT side of that portion of the blanket, with the "Module" (the clunky part of the electrical supply, which protrudes from the blanket) on the RIGHT side of that portion of the blanket. (Really! So bizarre) The wall outlet from which the power is supposed to come is shown on the right side of the bed, as is the bedside table. Everything in the instructions and the diagram require you to have this set up, exactly as shown in the diagram, and if you-- like me-- have the only main outlet in the bedroom to the LEFT of the head of the bed, you simply can't do what they want you to do.I am well educated, I do a lot of reading, I have a high IQ, and I tried to use the blanket on my bed in such a way that the power cord could go to the outlet which is to the left of the head of my bed. That really doesn't work, which is why they are so specific about the placement of the blanket, both in their diagrams on the box, their diagram in the instructions, and in the printed instructions. Is it possible that people in China always have their bed positioned in such a way that the wall outlet is on the right of the bed? My bed is against the wall in a little alcove, and it's the right side of my bed that is against the wall, and it has been that way for the 7 years I have lived in this studio apartment. There is literally no place else to put that bed. The outlet is not even very near the bed, but the cord from the blanket JUST reaches it. IF I violate the instructions and run the electrical cord along the left side of my bed, to the only outlet that is anywhere near the bed, it sort of works but I can guess why they don't want me to do that since it means I would inevitably step on the power cord. So buyer beware !! You really don't want to sleep with the power "module" (which is quite clunky) on the edge of the blanket near your face. That would be truly uncomfortable.

It works great! It's a throw size unit and the controls are design well enough to be intuitive. I don't experience any shedding issues with the blanket. I haven't had to wash it yet, so I'm not sure howwell it handles it. Otherwise, I use it all over the house and has proven to be pretty durable.

I like that this blanket has dual controls; one for each side. I put it on top of a comforter (so it doesn’t overheat) and boy does this thing feel good! Heat setting goes to 10 but I find plenty of warmth at setting 4. Absolutely a great purchase. Nice warm, relaxing comfort upon retiring. It is also machine washable. Fabric is ultra soft. Ahhhh….
