Another heated throw, this one a little larger than the previous but still not quite double bed sized. Like the Dreamland, the material is soft, and in this case, also fleecy. I love how multifunctional it is. I’ve sat with it on my lap as I work at my desk, I’ve snuggled up underneath it on the sofa and I’ve used it as an extra layer while the nights hit the minus temperatures.

The wide range of Silentnight bedding includes a great selection of comfortable pillows, duvets, mattress protectors, toppers and bed linen; everything you need to get a great night’s sleep.Here’s what I found after several nights testing the best electric blankets, starting with my favourite. (And if you’re looking for other ways to improve your sleep this winter, you could consider upgrading your pillow next). How does an electric blanket work?

Silentnight Comfort Control Heated Throw Blanket - Luxury

Cost per hour is based on using the blanket on its highest setting because, following our testing, we think that this is the setting you're more likely to use. The heated throws we've testedAs part of our test, we washed and tumbled dried each of the blankets five times after testing, and then conducted a full electricity safety test. All the blankets passed. Silentnight are the UK’s most trusted sleep brand with over 75 years’ experience in creating products to help the whole family get that ‘great sleep’ feeling. Comfort A panel of five volunteers assesses each electric blanket and heated throw for comfort. There is quite a big difference in how snuggly each one is and underwires are more noticeable in some of them. For electric blankets, we also assess how easy each one is to attach to a mattress and how comfortable each one is to lie on under a fitted sheet. Our Luxury Heated Throw helps to keep you extra cosy and warm over the colder months whilst you relax. The super soft fleece provides extra cosiness, whilst the 3 heat settings allow you to choose a temperature that is just right for you. A cosy night in is just minutes away!

Then, via the control pad (or your smart phone) you switch it on, and choose between heat settings and – on the better models – select a time. How safe is an electric blanket?There’s something luxurious about this 100 per cent cotton Dreamland electric blanket, a far cry from the cheap polyester feeling of some brands. Unlike others on this list, there’s no elasticated skirt or straps, instead it relies on a rather effective anti-slip grip on the underside. Also, be aware that the running cost claims on the box are often based on the blanket's lowest power setting, which our testing revealed hardly heats the blankets up at all. You can see the real running costs based on the blankets highest settings in the table below. The best electric blankets from our test If you sleep with a partner, look into dual controls so you can each control your own side of the bed. You might also want the option of a timer to help with energy saving (though electric blankets are pretty low cost to run all night anyway).

I found that some cheaper blankets had a tendency to come lose or crease up when I moved around at night; this one was fine. I liked the feature that adds extra heat to the area around your feet: in all honesty, I found in general keeping my feet snug and warm quite nice, whereas too much heat on my body made me feel stuffy and affected my sleep. Dr Stanley says switching on an electric blanket around half an hour before bed should make it perfectly cosy to get into, letting you drift to sleep naturally, but you should set it to turn off some time after you nod off. All the blankets I tested were able to warm up the bed in 30 minutes or less, costing less than 3p at today’s prices. What makes a good electric blanketCOSY WARMTH: The throw heats up in just a few minutes so you can snuggle up and enjoy extra cosy comfort. RELAX SAFELY: Features Heatsafe overheat protection for total peace of mind. The Silentnight Heated Throw is uniquely designed with stitched channels to prevent dangerous hots spots, plus features auto shut off after 2 hours for safety. But perhaps the biggest incentive is the high cost of electricity. At the time of writing, a typical 2000W electric heater in your bedroom could cost 68p an hour to run. By contrast, a 100W electric blanket would cost less than 4p. On their highest settings, we found that electric blankets cost anywhere between 2p and 7p an hour to run. For heated throws, the range is from 2p to 5p. SUPER SOFT: Covered in a super soft fleece for maximum cosiness, our heated throw is perfect for the colder months. Measures 120 x 160cm.
