With six heat settings, you can switch between modes and find the one that suits you. We're impressed it had this many settings - some cheaper blankets only offer around three, so it's a good choice if temperature control is high on your list of priorities when shopping for a blanket. With the ongoing cost of living crisis and energy bills remaining high, finding ways to stay warm and comfortable at home without breaking the bank has become a priority for many. This is where the best electric blanket and heated throw can help, offering an affordable and energy-efficient solution for keeping warm and cosy in colder temperatures.

This clever electric blanket warms up in just 5 minutes (why not make yourself a hot chocolate to enjoy while you’re waiting!) and offers six different heat settings to keep you warm, but never too hot. The Intelliheat+ technology automatically monitors and adjusts the temperature of your blanket regularly, so it keeps you at just the right level of toasty-ness, saving you from having to constantly adjust the settings. And as this heated throw costs only pennies to run – as little as 5p per hour on the lowest setting – you don't have to worry about the impact on your electricity bill. Aside from their cosiness, one of the main benefits of heated throws is their energy efficiency. Unlike central heating, which can be expensive and wasteful, heated throws only heat up the area they cover, so you can save money on your energy bills while you still feel warm and comfortable. There are other budget-friendly solutions to consider too, like a hot water bottle, but the advantage of an electric blanket is that you can heat up a larger area and control how long it stays hot for.Hate going to bed cold?

Durability After testing, each electric blanket and heated throw is washed and dried five times to simulate wear and tear. We then conduct a full electrical safety test on each one. None showed significant wear and tear, and all passed the test.When the evenings draw in, most of us feel like hibernating with comfort food, good TV and warmth. We certainly do. So, on cold evenings, put on a favourite film, heat up a mug of hot chocolate and transform your relaxation time by snuggling up under a heated throw. Perfect for the sofa or armchair, these plug-in over-blankets are a revelation on cold evenings. Sometimes we can be hesitant to wash something with an oh-so-cosy texture for fear of losing some of that softness. However, our tester had no issues at all when washing the blanket.

While your heated blanket warms your bed before you even step in, it can also help to maintain your body temperature throughout the whole night. This can help you remain in a deep and relaxed sleep, stopping you from being woken up during the night with chilly toes!
