I bought this blanket because i have a serious blanket obsession and have never before purchased a heated blanket. when i lived in scottsdale i had no need for such an item but since moving to a much colder area i thought i would give it a try.

PROS:
blanket gets super toasty!! almost too hot at times, luckily there is a controller built in to adjust temp.
its big enough to cover my body, but i am only 5 feet tall so that isnt as hard for me.
great price!!!
its washable, although i havent yet washed it.

CONS:
the highest setting is really hot and the lower settings are barely noticeably warm.
the "wires" that run through it are uncomfortable to have under you which is annoying because i like to spread it on the couch and sit on it versus having it over me.
compared to other blankets "super soft" is a stretch here.
it is a hair magnet with the hairs REALLY sticking into it (honestly though what blanket isnt?)

overall i am pleased with it and doubt i will be buying any more heated blankets. this one does what i need it to and there are tons of unheated blankets that i will be purchasing in the future.

I bought this blanket for my brother, who is undergoing chemotherapy and is cold all the time. He tells me that it is just perfect for his needs. It is warm, snuggley and a pleasing color (bluish-gray). He has no complaints about the controls or anything else concerning this blanket. It is a good size for using on the sofa to watch TV and not too big or bulky like a regular-sized blanket would be.

I've found this throw very handy and a pleasant warmth to have easily available. Six warmth levels can be selected; it has an on/off switch and a small lamp indicator shows when it is plugged into an electric outlet. It is a great source of warmth.
