Autocastle Novelty Electric Rechargeable Battery Heated Socks
There's nothing like snuggling up with a cozy blanket after a long, cold day. While there's something to be said for variety— weighted blankets, gravity blankets, cooling comforters, and tortilla blankets, oh my!—there's just something about a heated blanket that adds an extra level of cozy. After a day spent hitting the slopes or simply working from home as the snow falls outside your window, a heated blanket is *just* the thing to keep you warm all winter long. From fleece-lined to sherpa we're sharing a heated blanket here for everyone.
Electric blankets are fabulous for an extra layer of warmth on especially cold winter days. But back when they first came on the scene, they weren't so hot. (Heh.) Invented at the turn of the 20th century, legend has it, heated blankets gained popularity after becoming a staple of tuberculosis sanitariums, where patients often slept in the cold open air and used them to keep warm. Over time, they evolved from bulky, onerous fire hazards to the technology your nana knows and loves today.
When shopping for an electric blanket, there are a few factors to keep in mind: size, material, heat levels, and safety features. We're big proponents of an automatic shut-off feature! These factors will help you choose not only the best, but coziest, and safest blanket for you and your needs.
If you're looking for a comfortable one to throw over the couch, a smaller blanket with a shorter automatic turn-off time is likely ideal, whereas one for a king-size bed will likely need to be larger, have a longer run time, and you may even benefit from two controls (one for you and one for your partner).
