With persistent cold weather and rising energy costs, demand for affordable warmth solutions surges. Over the past month, more than 100 units of the Slumberdown Luxury Heated Throw Blanket have sold on Amazon. Now priced at £26.50, down from £46, this limited-time deal delivers a 42% savings. Available in warm charcoal, mole, dark charcoal, and pistachio, the throw caters to various tastes.
Users simply plug the blanket into an outlet for instant comfort. Its reversible design combines ultra-soft fleece on one side with plush sherpa on the other. Ten heat settings allow precise temperature control, while low running costs—mere pennies per hour, per the manufacturer—appeal to budget-conscious buyers. Safety features include a 10-hour timer and auto shut-off. Hypoallergenic and easy to care for, the blanket washes at 40 degrees and tumbles dry without hassle.
Alternative Warming Options
For variety, the Silentnight Comfort Control Electric Underblanket at Argos costs £28. Made of polyester, it offers four heat settings and warms in 10 minutes. An intelligent sensor monitors room temperature and adjusts automatically for consistent comfort.
Another choice, the Dreamland Intelliheat Warming Throw from Boots, sells for £49.69. It heats up in five minutes, runs at 1p per hour as stated by the retailer, and provides six heat levels.
What Customers Say
Reviews on Amazon highlight the throw’s appeal. One buyer shares: “This throw has been invaluable in the cold weather. Use it while watching TV on cool nights and then as an extra cover on the bed at night. It is soft and cuddly and snuggly.”
Another customer notes: “Very good.” A third provides more detail: “This is an absolute game changer. My boyfriend lives in one of those flats that seems to have a built-in icebox, and this was exactly what he needed. To be honest, when he first opened it at Christmas, he wasn’t exactly jumping for joy… but fast forward a few weeks, and now he can’t imagine going to bed without it.”
Not every review glows with praise. One user mentions: “This is ok but not the best if it’s a cold night.” Another points out: “Great product. Heat control switch can be sensitive to operate.”
