does it take a long time to warm up
99255
My last electric blanket had a preheat setting that allowed a quick heat-up and that was my biggest concern when purchasing this blanket. Don't worry....it warms up beautifully! I turn it on when I am getting ready for bed and it is so toasty when I get in! I love it so much I just ordered another one for my guest room. I hope this helps!

It warms up very quickly! I turn it on, then wash my face and brush my teeth to get ready for bed and it's already warm. If I remember correctly, it automatically goes on high to heat quickly and then sets to the temperature you specify.

No. I never timed it, but in about 10 minutes, the chill is off the sheets when you climb into bed.

Nope. I turn it on as we don't he prebed dance....face washing tooth brushing etc. it's warm by the time we crawl in.

It takes forever and does not get fully warm. Do not waste your money on this blanket.

Generally less than 5 minutes at a setting of 4 or 5. We usually turn it on as we're getting ready for bed and by the time we climb in it's nice and warm.

It is low-voltage DC and low-power, so it takes 5-10 minutes to warm up, and it shuts off automatically if left on for ~10 hours. We turn ours on (1-button) as we're getting ready for bed, and it is always plenty warm in time. I use mine on level 2 (of 10), because the higher settings can get very toasty.

Not at all. I usually turn it on 5 min before getting on bed. The bed sets itself on high until reaching the set temp then drops to the setting you put it on.

Hey Boni - this elect blanket is the most unique I've ever used! I'm a aged Vermonter who now can't stand the cold... so first time I plugged it in I expected a warmed bed when I got in. That wasn't the case. What really happened was - almost immediately I was warmed by a combination of my own body heat & the blanket's heating system. Now, during cold nights my setting is not much higher than 2... and I'm comfy & cozy. The blanket holds your heat better than any I've ever used. Enjoy!

It doesn't take too long to heat up, but you have to keep in mind that it's radiant heat so you don't feel the heat the same way you would an electric heater or infrared heater.

you will be able to feel some heat after it warms up. it is not fan forced air. it will take a few minets to warm up and then the heat rises.

It depends on what temp u want your sauna to reach . Within 5-10 minutes it's warm enough to get in . I set mine at 125 and it's reaches that in no more than 15 minutes

You asked for a subjective assessment. The same amount of time will seem "long" to some people and "short" to others. If you want to know if YOU will think the warm-up time is long or short, you will need to ask "How long does it take...".

The warmer heats up very quickly, within half an hour. It takes about another hour to really warm the towels. I have forgotten to turn it on first thing in the morning and have had warm-ish towels within 20 minutes.

I just did 4 cold starts in a row. It took 15 seconds to boot up on all starts. I hope this helps.

The machine cuts itself off after a certain amount of time ... about 40 minutes, my husband says. It takes maybe 20 minutes to warm the towels (and underwear). Well worth the wait, according to him. This was a great buy!

First, this unit takes awhile to warm up. Also I had to wiggle the power cord a couple of times to get it to come on.Hope this helps

It is not slow to warm up. I just turn the dial to 2, and the toast is perfect. No preheating necessary.

Yes you can. But I would imagine it would take between 20 to 30 minutes for it to warm up. So you would need to preplan and be extremely cautious because the can will get very hot.

Takes me 40 to 45 minutes. Could go longer once you know the whole sequence and do all the warmup exercises. You could modify it to meet your needs.

Mine has never taken 30 minutes for it to warm up did you turn the little Toggle switch on?

It heats the water rather nicely. I have even had to turn the heat off because it got to hot. I still start with warm water just so it heats up faster but have put in cold water before. It took about 5 min to warm up to a nice temperature.

I don't actually warm it up. I just toast the first slice(s) for 3 min. if I toast more The next slice(s) toast for 2:15 or so (these times are for wheat. White toast takes a little less time.

Generally it only takes a couple minutes to heat up, to get to full heat maybe up to 5 minutes. So if you need it for a specific amount of time that may need to be added to how long you put as the timer.
