Product Information

Together with the rest of the world, we are watching the tragic and unprovoked attacks unfold in Ukraine with sadness and disbelief. Getting into a cold bed may be perceived by your brain and body as a threat, increasing wakefulness.

Our double, King and Super king sizes come with 2 controls so you and your partner can tailor your warmth and comfort, enjoying a snug and cosy night’s sleep. There’s something luxurious about this 100 per cent cotton Dreamland electric blanket, a far cry from the cheap polyester feeling of some brands. I use this between me and my blanket on particularly cold nights, although the target audience to judge by the box is women who sit on the sofa under an electric blanket, nursing a steaming cup of hot chocolate and presumably watching Friends for the 30th time. Safety-wise there is very little to worry about, but look out for British Electrotechnical Approvals Board (BEAB) approval.

If you sleep with a partner, look out for the dual control function, which allows one side of the bed to heat up independently to another.

Your blanket will come with a plug (or two if it’s dual-control), which usually extends to around a metre or so. I found this in many ways the best blanket, mainly because the fluffy sheepskin-style fleece isn’t thick at all – and bedsheets are easier to attach and keep flat on a thinner electric blanket.

With 9 temperature options, 4 timer settings and body and foot warmth controls, it’s the perfect way to find exactly the right temperature for you and your partner.
