| This electric blanket is well made and warms up instantly. No waiting at all. Could have thicker fabric to cover the wires, but all in all, worth the price. |
absolute garbage

I bought this blanket (in King size) from a retail store two weeks ago. If only I had read the reviews on Amazon first, I would have saved myself some serious aggravation and avoided it like the plague.
The first thing that hit me when I put the blanket on the bed was how thin it was and how horribly stiff the wires in the blanket were. That should have been enough right there for me to pack it up and take it back to the store, but I decided to give it a try anyway. Despite the fact that there was a heavy flannel sheet between myself and the blanket, I could still feel the wires. Even my husband, who could sleep on a bed of nails, commented how uncomfortable the wires felt.
And the aggravation with the blanket didn't end there. Within three days, the darned thing stopped working in the middle of the night. No heat, no lights on the controls, no nothing. I tried unplugging the blanket and plugging it back into hoping it would "re-boot" but it did no absolutely good. The blanket was deader than a proverbial doornail.
Thankfully, I saved the receipt and intend to return it tomorrow. Next time I'll read the Amazon reviews first and save myself a serious spike in my blood pressure... |

| This product is fine until you turn it above 8, and then it just shuts off. |
Good for a season...

I have purchased three Sunbeam Warming blankets over the last four to five years, and one thing is consistent...for the first year, it works like a charm. However, after the first year, the quality and consistency of heat begins to diminish exponentially.
I really never paid attention to the number of blankets I was buying, as I just would buy a new one if it was not heating properly. This year, I noticed that I have three queen sized heating blankets (one on the bed and the other two in bags that I have never gotten around to dropping off at GoodWill). Then it hit me, every 18 months, I am spending $139 for a blanket. Someone has to have a better quality blanket.
Next year, the blanket on my bed should begin to go out (as Sunbeam is SO consistant). So I will purchase another brand! |

We received a Sunbeam electric blanket as a gift and after one year it stopped working, we bought another one and I even bought the electric throw, one year later they both stopped working.
Very disappointed in Sunbeam products after 3 products with the same problem of no longer working after a year, it is definitely a product problem.
Do not buy this product! |

| I have had 3 Sunbeam electric blankets in 3 years. They all stop getting warm in just a few months and are only warm in spots. Everyone of them took forever to get warm and before they quit entirely "High" isn`t even warm. They also pill up terribly and make lint. I could live with that if it just worked. I will not buy Sunbeam again and now am shopping for the Soft Heat which gets the highest national ratings and reviews. |
