I just want a blanket to lay between my microplush blanket &amp; bedspread to warm my bed before climbing into it. Will it live up to that purpose?

I think it should. I live inm Chicago where we're in a deep freeze right now. I have a top sheet, 2 of the fleece blankets and a quilt on the bed and I'm toasty. I think one of the fleece blankets should do the trick nicely and it's great for autumn/spring.

Actually, we love our blankets but have found that we only use them to preheat the bed when the room is cold. They're toasty enough as-is, and have a very luxurious feel to them, too.

Hi. Unfortunately no, it's thick and cozy, my fav blanket by far but more suitable for a crib as it's long. The best solution would be to buy a pack of the thinner muslin swaddler. They can fold up very compact and doubled up they are thick and cozier. Congrats on the twins!

No. I have a full size blanket and it has one control, which is connected to the blanket. I have not had any issues with this--works fine. I keep the control within reach so I can turn the blanket down easily. It gets toasty warm.

Hi! If you have REALLY, REALLY thin blankets and you are tucking them under at the foot of the bed, much like you would tuck in a top sheet, these might work, but I rather doubt it.......the jaws of the three clamps of each corner suspender system are not going to be able to open wide enough for anything other than the thinnest of blankets. I also don't believe that you would be able to pinch a chunk of a thicker blanket, again because the jaws just won't open wide enough. I have been pleased with these so far, because I can adjust each of the three straps on each so that no one part of the corner system takes all of the strain. But, I would give this a pass for heavier stuff, myself. Good luck! Hi!

Yes, I think you could use it at the top of your bed as you could always turn it off if you were getting too warm. I don't like an electric blanket as it is too warm for me. I was very pleased with the smaller bed warmer to help keep my feet warm. I also have arthritis issues in my shoulders and plan to have total shoulder replacement surgery on the 21st of this month. It was suggested that you could place it behind your shoulders while sitting in a recliner, but I didn't try that method. It is a very nice heating pad that can be used for many other purposes.

Yes - surprisingly well. It's very light weight, so don't expect a heavy blanket. I use it to cover and protect my couch (we have dogs) and it's the perfect weight.

No, it will start to pull up over time do to fluctuation in temp, and humidity. For long term protection you may want to use a bed liner or original ( non spray able) plasti dip. It's thicker.

Well, I think you might get a bit chilled trying to cover yourself with this item. However, if you just want to store a comforter...it should work well:)

I think so. Mine is outside, with a foam/ vinyl cover on top. With the blanket on, the heater comes on less. I put the bubble side down and trimmed it a bit larger than the top and it works well. I read on line that it is more energy efficient to keep it warm all the time vs turning it down to cool when not in use and then heating it all up again before using . I find this to be true also. I am not an expert.

I'm a cold person, so I also have an electric blanket. When I lived in Colorado I had an electric mattress cover and a serious down comforter. However, I found I could keep the electric blanket temperature lower with this blanket. For me, it was more effective and lighter than the non-down alternative comforter I replaced.

Well of course heavy is a relative term, but I routinely place a heavy comforter and a thermal blanket over the top of this item with no problems. In fact, you need to place at least one blanket over the top in order for the heat generated by this blanket to be most effective. Also it is very important to look for the label sewn onto the blanket which instructs you which side of the electric blanket needs to face up on the bed. Placing the blanket on the bed in any other orientation substantially reduces the amount of useful heat produced.

Different people use "microplush" to mean different things. If you mean to ask if the dark portion is similar to microfleece, it is not. Both the light and dark sides of this comforter are made from the same polyester material and are of equal quality and softness. To me, the bedspread feels like a typical soft cotton, similar to cotton sheets (noting that it is not actually cotton, but polyester). I hope this helps!

I bought a twin blanket for my sister, she has a queen bed, it fits from edge to edge with no hangover, she has to keep it on low, she says it's the hottest blanket she has ever owned&gt; Hope this helps!

Because it's specifically designed for wool and sheep skin products, my guess is that it would be perfect for your wool blanket (at a cold temperature). I would not dry the blanket after washing, but would air dry.

I believe so the nice thing about these blankets is that they aren't heavy so I use it as a comforter then a small blanket under it but I get too hot I have to push this blacket off of me so I believe once it gets colder it will work perfect. I always have liked any kind of goose down or similar because they are great in hot or cold times and are super comfy and soft.

You will only be able to dry 1 blanket at a time but it will work. I've done a full size comforter.
