Aldi shoppers love 'excellent' £50 Specialbuy that’ll 'keep you warm' at bedtime

With the days getting chillier, many households are looking for more cost-effective, energy-efficient ways to keep warm over the winter.

One way in which you can avoid switching the heating on at night is by investing in a heated blanket - and we’ve spotted one on Aldi which shoppers are calling “great value” and a “game changer.”

The £50 dual heated underblanket easily attaches to your mattress, like a fitted sheet, and traps warm air between your quilt and mattress, keeping your bed nice and toasty throughout those colder months.

It features six different heat settings, is double layered and comes with detachable dual controllers meaning you can set your side and your partner's side to different temperatures to avoid those nighttime arguments!

You don’t have to worry about leaving it on either as the Aldi SpecialBuy even has an ‘automatic overheating protection’ as well as a three-year warranty and 10 pre-set timer settings, so it can switch on or off automatically at whichever time you choose.

The must-have product has received plenty of five-star reviews on Aldi’s website, with many shoppers praising it for its brilliant design and affordable price point.

One customer calling the blanket a “game-changer” said: ‘My first electric blanket! I bought a king size for my double bed and it fits perfectly. The blanket is well padded, you don't know you are laying on one it's such good quality. The blanket fits like a fitted sheet too, no straps I would definitely buy again and recommend to family and friends.”

A second shopper wrote: “Have used this for a few weeks and it's great. I previously had one that had strings that tied and had to go under the mattress - this one is so much easier! It takes a few minutes to heat up, but that doesn't bother me, I just turn it on when I come into the bedroom and it's toasty warm when I get into bed. Love it.”

While a third said: “Best quality heated blanket I've ever owned and fits my king size mattress perfectly... heats all over top to toe, even the corners.”

The blanket is only available in a king size currently, however we’ve spotted another affordable electric blanket from Silentnight on Amazon which comes in sizes single, double and king, and starts from just £30.
