Electric Blankets

An electric blanket is the cheapest heat you can buy, at a few cent a night to run against roughly a euro an hour for a 2kW room heater, which is why it remains the first thing to add before turning the heating up. The choice comes down to where the blanket sits. An underblanket or heated mattress cover goes beneath the bottom sheet and warms the bed before you get into it, then most people switch it off for the night; premium fleece and plush versions add real padding as well as warmth, and mattress-cover styles have elasticated skirts so they stay put through the night. An overblanket sits on top of you like a quilt and holds warmth while you sleep, and a heated throw does the same job on a sofa as well as a bed, which makes it the most versatile option in a cold sitting room. Sizes run single, double, king and super king. On doubles and above, look for dual controls: two separate handsets and two heating zones so each side of the bed sets its own temperature, which settles most household arguments about heat. Timers, multiple heat settings and automatic shut-off after a set period are standard on the mid and upper range, and every blanket here is machine washable with the controller detached.

Dreamland covers a wide spread, from Scandi and Hygge underblankets to dual control overblankets, mattress protectors and Snuggle Up heated throws. De Vielle supplies premium fleece underblankets in single through super king plus 200g heated throws, while Beurer and Monogram handle the Indulgence and Komfort heated mattress covers. Sirocco covers single and double underblankets at the value end, and Russell Hobbs the Sherpa microfleece heated throws.

Electric blankets and heated throws are among the most reliably reduced items of the Irish year, partly because they are a common gift and partly because retailers clear winter stock into Christmas. Prices are live all year, so see what is reduced now on electric blankets on sale and across heating on sale, or the Black Friday heating deals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an electric under blanket and an over blanket?

An under blanket sits between the mattress and your sheet and warms the bed from below. An over blanket or throw lies on top of you, which is why it also works on a sofa. Over blankets are the ones to choose for a memory foam mattress, since they do not trap heat against the foam.

Are electric blankets expensive to run?

No, and that is the point of them. The Russell Hobbs throw draws 60 watts, the De Vielle double 90 watts, and the Dreamland and Monogram doubles 2 x 150 watts across both sides. At those figures a blanket costs a fraction of heating the bedroom around you.

Are electric blankets safe?

Every blanket in this range has overheat protection. The Dreamland models are Kema Keur tested and the Monogram models use the Beurer safety system with continuous temperature monitoring. Most also switch off automatically after a set number of hours, which is the feature to look for if you fall asleep with it on.

Can an electric blanket be machine washed?

Yes, on every model here, once the controller and cable are detached. Temperatures differ: the Monogram blankets wash at 30 degrees, the Russell Hobbs foot warmer at 40, and the Russell Hobbs throw on a cool setting. The Dreamland mattress protectors are also tumble dryer safe.

What is a dual control electric blanket?

One with a separate controller for each side of the bed, so two people can run different temperatures. The Dreamland 16889 and 16888 and the Monogram 300.87 all have two controls. The De Vielle double and the Monogram 300.86 use a single control across the whole blanket.
