Is the GentleSoft heated blanket worth it?

It is a reasonable pick if you want a sherpa-backed throw with a timer and 6 heat levels. Compare its current price against other 50x60 heated throws before deciding.

How warm does it get and how fast?

It has 6 heat levels and 100W of power, which is typical for a throw this size. Most heated throws like this warm up within 10 to 15 minutes on a high setting.

Can I leave it on overnight?

The blanket has an 8-hour auto shut-off, so it will turn itself off. Many owners still prefer the 1- or 2-hour timer for safety.

Is it machine washable?

Most heated throws with detachable cords are machine washable on gentle once the controller is unplugged. Confirm the care label before washing.

What size is it and will it cover a bed?

It is 50x60 inches, a throw size for one person on a couch or chair. It is too small to cover a queen or king bed.

When is the price lowest?

Heated blankets usually drop around Black Friday and in late January. Check the price history chart for this model to see its recent low.
