Best Overall Electric Blanket: Sunbeam Microplush Heated Throw ($38)
If you’re looking for an inexpensive and simple heated blanket, then look no further. The Sunbeam Microplush Heated Throw is perfect if you want a warm blanket to cozy up with in front of the TV. With a 3 hour auto-off feature, this blanket is perfect for casual use on the couch and will safely turn off even if you leave it wadded up as you wander off to bed.
If you find the 20 temperate options on a traditional electric blanket are too fussy, you’ll find the warm-hot-hottest simplicity of the controls on the throw to be refreshing. The Sunbeam Microplush Heated Throw includes a controller with 3 temperature settings to choose from—making your choice easier. Just plug the cord for this blanket into the wall (which is 10 feet long and should reach easily behind your couch), and you’re all set to be warm!
This blanket is machine washable and dryable, and can be easily disconnected from its cord to work as a regular throw blanket. Plus, it even has a foot pocket so you can tuck your feet in to keep them warm.
Best Cozy Heated Blanket: Serta Heated Electric Honeycomb Faux Fur Throw ($72)
Electric blankets are often an eyesore and have a reputation of being bulky and uncomfortable—especially older designs with thick wires throughout the interior. This Serta Heated Electric Honeycomb Faux Fur Throw is different from other heated blankets on the market because it not only feels different, but it looks different as well!
Instead of a blanket that only focuses on comfort, why not check out a blanket that is comfortable and stylish? The Honeycomb faux fur on one side has a unique blanket texture, while the other side is made of a soft plush. This blanket also has 5 heat settings, so you can personalize your heated blanket experience.
