Dunelm's Teddy Electric Blanket, priced at £35 depending on size, is trending on the retailer's website with a general rating of 4.6 out of 5. As temperatures drop, the heated throw has become a best-seller among shoppers looking to stay warm.
Product features and design
Made from 100% polyester, the electric blanket features a soft teddy bear texture and is part of a wider teddy bear range from Dunelm. The product is fully heatable, machine washable, and described by the retailer as offering "unparalleled warmth and comfort" with a reversible teddy bear covering.
Full features of the throw include a 100% polyester build, soft teddy bear texture, heatable design, machine washability, and an approximate running cost of 2p per hour.
Shopper reviews highlight warmth and controls
Customer reviews on the Dunelm website are largely positive. One shopper said: "Super warm and cosy blanket. Easy to use controls with half hour settings. Nine heat settings and timer. Soft and fluffy fabric. Elastic stay in place to the corners. Fits really well."
Another review read: "I love this electric blanket. It has a deep, fluffy covering so no wires can be felt when lying down, and it is very easy to operate with a scale of warmth from 1-10 and also a timer so you can set it to switch off at a particular time. I highly recommend this product."
A third fan said: "Lovely fleece and easy to use controller. Definitely a good night's sleep." A fourth review added: "It's warm and cosy even before you switch it on. You sleep like a cuddly teddy bear, very much value for money."
Alternative throws and noted drawbacks
Some shoppers pointed out a flaw in quality, with one review reading: "It does feel soft and snuggly but takes forever to warm up even on the high setting."
For comparison, M&S is selling a Fleece Ribbed Throw for £20-£40 depending on size in four colours, while Argos has reduced the Habitat Faux Fur Textured Throw to £25.20. The Dunlem throw is available to purchase from £35.
