Dual Control Double Electric Blanket
Not all electric blankets are created the same. If you want to enjoy the most warm, comfortable sleep possible, there are a few things that you need to look for in your blanket. Here are a few of them.
First, if you share a bed with someone else, look into getting a dual control double electric blanket. These blankets will let each person set the temperature to their choosing and will fit anything from a double down to a 4ft bed. With this, you won’t have to worry about who’s going to have control of the temperature, leaving ones person freezing or sweating the entire night.
Another nice extra to look for in your electric blanket is a pre-heat setting. With this setting, you’ll be able to turn your blanket on several minutes before you plan on going to bed and it will be nice and warm for you by the time you’re ready to tuck yourself in. It’s a great addition and you won’t have to wait for your blanket to warm up before you go to bed.
Another thing to look for Is how the remote control is setup. Older blankets have the remote setup on a cord that is attached to the blanket. This keeps the remote handy, but if you toss and turn during the night, it might wake you up, or you might even mess with the controls and turn the heat way up or way down. Many newer blankets offer a wireless remote with them that will allow you the set the temperature and place the remote safely out of reach.
Finally, look at what type of blanket you’ll be buying. Most electric blankets people think about are made to go over your body and keep you warm. However, there are also other blankets made to put under your bed, modeled after Korean “ondol” heat, that will warm you up from underneath.
Whatever type of blanket you choose, make sure that you look at all the features before you make a decision.
