Looking to save on heating bills while still staying warm and cosy at bed time? Then you might want to invest in a heated blanket – they’re perfect for heating the body, not the home, and surprisingly “cheap to run”.
This TS15 Ecologic+ Heated Underblanket from the German brand Beurer has been hailed as “the best thing I’ve ever bought” by happy customers who found it really made a difference to their sleep and energy costs. Priced at just £34.61, (currently seven percent off), it’s great value and “well worth the money” for its efficiency and longevity.
The Beurer Heated Underblanket features three temperature settings as well as no slip ties to attach to your mattress for maximum comfort. What’s more, it’s machine washable as well as breathable and anti-allergy too.
Equipped with a German safety system named BSS, this heated blanket has electronic sensor technology which will automatically switch-off to prevent overheating, keeping you super safe at night. Even better, it comes with an extra long cable “ideal for those who do not have a socket near the bed” so you can control it wherever you need.
Unlike other models, the Beurer Heated Underblanket “covers the whole of the double bed” without leaving gaps. Happy shoppers said that they loved the quality and size of the blanket, quipping: “No more cold shoulders, warm toes, or the other way round.”
Customers who were delighted by their purchases even went as far as saying: “Maybe the best thing I’ve ever bought. Just so good to have. Cheap to use and well made- thanks Germans for your efficiency: das is gut!“
If you’re not already convinced by the fantastic 4.3 out of five star rating, these great reviews should help you out. One delighted buyer said: “This electric blanket is well worth the money.
“The size we bought covers the whole of the double bed, it has three heat settings, so according to the room temperature we only need to have it on for about an hour. We liked it so much we bought another one.”
While another commented: “Forget your fleeces and sherpas – this probably is the best blanket on the market. I’ve tried three other electric blankets this winter, each cost up to three times as much, but didn’t work half as efficiently as Beurer.
“This blanket will heat up quick and well. It’s usually still on in the morning, but it’s cheap to run. And, of course, German, so of quality you can actually trust.”
Other shoppers who were happy with the German quality added: “A blanket which really is double bed size. The size really does go from side to side and from and from shoulder level to the foot of the bed on a double bed. This is my second blanket, replaced after the first gave up, following about 10 years of use. Good value, in my opinion.”
This buyer simply wrote: “Fantastic Product and low cost to use; would recommend to everyone.”
This happy Amazon shopper commented: “This blanket is quick to heat up and maintains it heat a long time. Very pleased with this product.”
Other agreed on the blanket’s speed and efficiency, adding: “Heats up very quickly and uses hardly any electricity” and “Heat up quickly. The only thing i can regret is I didn’t buy it much earlier. I can’t imagine my bed without it now.”
Another pleased customer said: “This electric blanket is perfect; the size is much bigger than others for double bed, the connecter is not too bulky and it is positioned on the left side which is convenient to connect to the electric plug on the same side in my room.”
They did however note: “It takes a bit of time to warm up but it’s worth the wait.”
