Why do shoppers love it?

This electric throw blanket comes in gray and white and is made with flannel and sherpa material that makes it cozy even without turning it on and heating it up, as many reviewers mention.

You can choose how warm you want to be when you use this blanket by adjusting the heating setting. With six levels, it's easy to find your ideal temperature.

It's perfect if you like to go to bed warm but don't want to keep the blanket on all night. This blanket also has a safety feature to protect against overheating.

"You can actually wrap yourself in it without having part of your body still out. My mom loves this, and now I have to buy her one."
