Dunelm has cut the price of its Velvety Soft Fleece Throw from £45 to £36 in the olive green and grey colourways, offering 20% off as part of its winter heating essentials sale.
The large throw, measuring 200cm x 200cm, is described as providing a smooth, super-soft feel. It can be used on the sofa, as an extra layer on a bed, or over the legs when working from home. The stylish shades are designed to add texture to interiors without detracting from them when draped over furniture.
Warmth Without Electricity
The throw is also available in chocolate brown and cream, though these colours remain at full price. As a non-electric option, the fleece throw costs nothing to run, though it will not heat up as quickly as power-led alternatives.
For comparison, the StaySnug Sherpa Electric Heated Throw from Lakeland is priced at £54.99 and offers nine heat settings, with the brand stating it costs from 26p an hour to run.
Shopper Reviews
The Velvety Soft Fleece Throw has received five-star reviews from customers. One person said: "This is such a lovely throw. It's not too heavy. It's on top of our duvet. The quality is very good, and it is so soft, like cuddling a teddy bear."
A second shopper wrote: "Soft and cuddly. Stunning blanket. Excellent quality. Purchased the brown and then the cream." A third customer noted: "Absolutely beautiful warm huge soft blanket, so lovely I bought a 2nd one and I'm just ordering my daughter one." Another commented: "Beautiful well worth the money, bought my son one too."
