It has four heat settings, so you can choose the perfect temperature for you and even features overheat protection for total peace of mind. However, experts do recommend turning off the appliance before falling asleep to regulate your core temperature.

There's a timer, and fast setting claims to "have your bed warm in only 5 minutes, it's energy saving and costing only 1p to run per night". The product has clearly won customers over, with dozens of 5 star reviews on the Argos website.

One five-star reviewer wrote: "I've had this for over a week now and I find it so relaxing to lie on. I've thought it's like a Turkish, hot stone massage. It's very easy to operate and clearly runs through a safety check at each use." Another said: "Warms the bed very quickly, stays on safely all night on low setting and is very economical to run. Also it’s full length, so warm feet! Very pleased with the purchase."

A third five-star reviewer raved: "I do not use room heating as the heated blanket Is superb at heating the bed and really saves electricity and of course is so much cheaper." Somebody else said: "Great substitute for putting the heating on!"
