Design and options
- Simple-to-use management
- Thick straps
- It doesn’t absolutely cowl the mattress
Whereas it doesn’t have a lot in the way in which of extra options, what Slumberdown’s Sleepy Nights Electric Blanket does have is the noticeable high quality you’d count on from a widely known model.
It’s a pleasingly thick polyester blanket, with one management hooked up proper at a nook reasonably than additional down, the place it will probably conflict with shoulders.
With the management indifferent, it’s washable on a 40°C wool cycle, though the blanket can’t be tumble dried, so that you’ll want to seek out someplace appropriate for it to air dry. And, reasonably than slim elastic straps which might be liable to twisting, it attaches to the mattress with two lengthy thick straps, so it may be fitted and eliminated in seconds.
Preserving with the fuss-free theme, its management has a straightforward slider for choosing a warmth stage. There are three settings, with 0 at both finish, so whichever means you push the slider, it’ll swap it off.
You too can go straight to three if the slider is already on the high. A dim mild illuminates to point out when it’s on.

Efficiency
- Heats up rapidly
- Cozy to sleep on
- Indicator mild stays on
Relatively than counting on nook elastics, that may probably pop off as you sleep, Slumberdown’s Sleepy Nights Electric Blanket has two lengthy straps. Which means that it’d transfer somewhat back and forth when you’re an energetic sleeper, but it surely ought to keep hooked up.
As soon as fitted, I observed that it had pretty outstanding wires however they’re decently buried and I didn’t really feel them as I slept.
Total, it was snug to sleep on, and its nook management attachment tended to be coated by my pillow, so I didn’t collide with it.
It heated up rapidly, on common taking about 10-Quarter-hour to take the chilliness off and about half-hour to be toasty heat. Though a single management meant that the mattress was the identical temperature all through.
This wasn’t so dangerous initially, but when I wished to maintain the blanket on low all evening – one thing that’s attainable with the Sleepy Nights – my companion needed to take pleasure in/endure the identical heat too. The one different remark is that the indicator mild stays on to point out it’s on. Whereas it’s not very vibrant, and most individuals received’t discover it, those that choose whole darkness could have to tape over the standing mild.
