Review on πŸ”₯ Cozy and Warm: Sunbeam Imperial Nights Twin Heated Blanket for Ultimate Comfort in Mushroom, Poly/Cotton Blend by Bill Howard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

so far great! heats up and stays hot, does not pill. UPDATED TWICE

This is the third electric blanket we have received from Revain.com in about four months. The first one had so much lint that we had to return it; A month after he was gone we still found lint everywhere when vacuuming and scrubbing! Queen Chili Electric Fleece Blanket by SmartBargains. The next, Sunbeam, quit after a month. It just flashed FF all the time and wouldn't reset. Sunbeam Dynasty Retreat Queen Quilted Fleece Heated Blanket Raisins. We've had it less than a week and so far so good! * This is NOT a low voltage, which means it will STAY at seven if you set it to seven. I hate when a comforter is fancy and thinks it should be warm enough.* It didn't shed at all, not a bit.* The fabric they have on top and bottom is the right color, not satin, it is rather felted cotton that feels good on the skin. Once you know what the buttons do, you don't need to read them anymore. * The controls do not lay flat because they are not heavy enough and the power cord is stiff. controls; They stick it in the head of the bed.* My husband usually loves the sheets on him and complains about the comforters touching his skin. Personally, I hate cold sheets and like to sleep next to a smooth, comfortable blanket. But it's a blanket he covers with himself throughout the night. It feels REALLY comfortable against the skin.* If you look at the photos I sent for inspection with the photos on display, you can see the electrical wires in the duvet, and sometimes I can feel them when I take the duvet off up to my nose. but they don't bother, what do they look like. I will update over time. UPDATE 7 22 2009 I've put it in the dryer to air out about 4 times and it still works. Still no pilling, it still feels good and still works. Very satisfied. UPDATE DEC 2010 I've ordered four of these duvets as I always have one in my favorite color and the first one didn't shed. It's getting cold here again, but the one I was talking about earlier doesn't work. I pulled one of the backups, swapped controls, etc. to see what part of the first one wasn't working, but couldn't figure it out. space all the time. I'm not sure why this one works and the first one doesn't. Had to buy a LARGE lint roller and use it in my bedroom every day. The lint is scattered throughout the house from shoes, dogs, or something else - like weeds or goat spores. Anyway, I'm not satisfied with that. There are also two new ones in the box.

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Not sure
