Review on πŸ”₯ Stay Cozy with Sunbeam BW1211-030-470 Heated Electric Microplush Blanket – Full Size, Walnut by Tamara Simms

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Light and warm blankets for the bed

This blanket replaces a five year old Sunbeam electric blanket. The old ceiling didn't work very well. It warmed up slowly and didn't seem to warm up unless there was a body(?) underneath. With some trepidation (and mostly just a lack of choice) we returned to another Sunbeam blanket. Big difference. The preheating features work great, warming the duvet just enough to lift the edge of cold Wisconsin sheets. Preheating only takes a few minutes. Normal settings also work well. The remote control is better because it sits on the bedside table. No more searching for the remote control under the bed and blankets. The controls are intuitive and easy to use in the fog of sleep. This material is a super soft plush material that I've seen used on scarves and the like. We like it so far. We'll see how it holds up in the wash. The blanket itself is very light, almost imperceptible. The size is too big for a queen. The duvet has no edge. It was the bond that broke with the old Sunbeam that eventually led us to replace it. The wiring seems to be nicely distributed in the ceiling. As with all of these blankets you can see/feel the wiring. Compared to the other Sunbeam we've had, the wiring here feels lighter and more flexible, not as noticeable.

Pros
  • Like everything before
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
