Find Your Perfect Electric Blanket: Comfort for Every Budget
Posted by RACHEL MURDOCH

Electric blankets cost just 3p per hour and could save you £360 this winter. Choose between core blankets for reliable, affordable warmth or luxury faux fur blankets for premium comfort. All are machine washable with automatic shut-off protection.
Winter is here, and if you're dreading another season of sky-high heating bills, you're not alone. But there's a smarter way to stay warm without breaking the bank: electric blankets that cost just 3p per hour to run.
Our electric blanket range offers two carefully selected price points, so whether you're looking for everyday comfort or luxury warmth, there's an option that fits your budget and lifestyle.
Understanding Electric Blanket Value
Before we dive into our range, let's talk about what makes a quality electric blanket worth the investment.
Safety comes first. Every blanket in our range features automatic shut-off protection, giving you peace of mind whether you're pre-warming your bed or relaxing with a book. This essential safety feature means you never have to worry about leaving your blanket on accidentally.
Easy care matters. All our electric blankets are fully machine washable. Simply disconnect the controller, pop it in the washing machine, and you're done. No expensive dry cleaning bills or complicated cleaning routines.
Running costs stay low. At just 3p per hour, using an electric blanket instead of central heating can save you hundreds of pounds over the winter months. Think about it: heating your entire home costs significantly more than warming just your bed or sofa space.

Premium Luxury: Faux Fur Electric Blankets
Perfect for: Those who value ultimate comfort, anyone seeking hotel-quality bedding at home, or treating yourself (or someone special) to exceptional warmth.
Quick Summary: Luxury faux fur fabric available in cream or grey. All the safety features of our core range, plus premium soft texture and superior heat retention.
Available in sophisticated cream and elegant grey.
Our faux fur electric blankets take comfort to the next level. The moment you touch the plush faux fur fabric, you'll feel the difference. This isn't just warmth; it's a cosy experience that transforms your bed into a luxury retreat.
What makes faux fur special:
The faux fur lining adds an extra dimension of tactile comfort. While the heating elements provide warmth, the soft, fluffy faux fur fabric creates a nest-like feeling that ordinary blankets simply can't match. It's the difference between being warm and being wrapped in pure comfort.
What you get:
- Luxurious faux fur fabric for ultimate softness
- Choice of cream or grey to match your bedroom style
- Multiple heat settings for personalized comfort
- Automatic shut-off protection for safety
- Machine washable despite the premium materials
- Energy-efficient operation at 3p per hour
- Superior heat retention from the thick faux fur material
- Hotel-quality comfort in your own bed
Why choose faux fur: If you spend significant time in bed (whether sleeping, reading, or relaxing), the faux fur upgrade transforms your experience. The premium fabric doesn't just feel luxurious; it actually helps retain heat better, meaning you might use lower settings while staying just as warm.
How to Choose Your Perfect Electric Blanket

- You want reliable warmth at the best value price
- You're trying an electric blanket for the first time
- You need blankets for multiple beds
- Simple, effective comfort is your main goal
- Budget is your primary consideration
Choose our faux fur range if:
- You spend lots of time in bed reading or relaxing

The Real Cost Savings Breakdown
Key Takeaway: You could save £360 this winter by switching to electric blankets.
Let's look at the numbers because they're genuinely impressive.
Traditional central heating in a typical UK home costs around £1.50 to £2.00 per hour to run during winter. If you heat your home for just 5 hours each evening, that's approximately £7.50 to £10 per day.
Electric blanket alternative: Using an electric blanket costs just 3p per hour. Even if you use it for several hours to pre-warm your bed and relax in the evening, the costs stay incredibly low.
Your winter savings: If you reduce your central heating by just 2 hours per evening and use an electric blanket instead, you could save around £3 per day. Over a 120-day winter season, that's a potential saving of £360.
Both our core and faux fur blankets run at the same efficient 3p per hour, so you can choose based on comfort preference rather than running costs.
Safety and Care: Simple and Straightforward
Using your electric blanket safely:
Modern electric blankets are incredibly safe when used correctly. The automatic shut-off feature in all our blankets means they'll turn off after a set period, even if you forget. This protects against overheating and gives you complete peace of mind.
Simple care routine:
Machine washing your electric blanket is easier than you might think. Disconnect the controller unit, fold the blanket loosely (never tightly rolled), and wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Lay flat or tumble dry on low heat, and your blanket is fresh and ready to use again. The entire process takes no more effort than washing regular bedding.
Making Your Decision
Both price points offer exceptional value, but in different ways.
The core range gives you everything essential: safety, warmth, easy care, and impressive cost savings. There's no compromise on quality or effectiveness, just a straightforward approach to electric blanket comfort.
The faux fur range adds luxury to practicality. You get all the same essential features, plus that extra layer of indulgent comfort that makes going to bed something you genuinely look forward to. Choose cream for a soft, calming aesthetic or grey for contemporary elegance.
Winter Comfort Starts Here
Whether you choose our reliable core range or indulge in faux fur luxury, you're making a smart choice for both comfort and your wallet. At just 3p per hour to run, these blankets pay for themselves in heating bill savings while transforming your winter evenings from chilly endurance tests into cosy retreats.
Your perfect electric blanket is waiting. The only question is: essential comfort or luxurious warmth?
