Do you use an electric blanket?

I wish I had one for tomorrow night when it is going down to somewhere below 30 degrees F. I have two actually, but they seem to have outlived their usefulness. I plan on looking for one tomorrow as I have to head into the city...tomorrow for a project. Electric blankets are really cozy when the temp is low.

I love electric blankets but we don't have one in this house. It really doesn't get that cold and we have flannelette sheets so it's all good.

@JudyEv Yes, they can really warm a bed up too. I have a lot of windows in my room, which I love but it can also get a bit cold in there sometimes.

@snowy22315 They're great to crawl onto on a cold night, that's for sure.

I used an electric blanket before when I was still living in Ireland. This electric blanket is in the cellar now in one of the packages stored there.

@snowy22315 Not yet too cold for an electric blanket. Anyway, we have a heater and that is enough for me.

@snowy22315 It sounds perfect, but I'm wondering if the current can shake me.

I fancy getting an electric blanket. It gets very cold in England during the winter time. I went to visit my aunty and she let me use one of her electric blankets. I have happy memories thinking back to that time. I used to take a hot water bottle to bed. That isn't as good as an electric blanket. I think cushions you can microwave heat are really cold moments later. The heat doesn't last for long.

Never have, never will! I don't like the idea and have not needed one yet. Maybe when I get really old?

If you put them on a low temp that doesn't usually happen.

We used to have them, but got rid of them when we heard they were dangerous. We have a fluffy down comforter which we love. It's almost too hot to use with the heat on.

I used to own an electric blanket. If it gets too cold, two warm blankets are used.

I don't think so it's available in our country because I've never heard of the electric blankets

No and never. The perk of living in the tropical country, you won't need it. But a fan or air conditioning is a must.

When I moved in here there were 4 brand new ones in the original plastic. They were old though and I was worried about them causing fire so I got rid of them. Kind of kicking myself forever after that. I could have used them just while awake.
