These specs make no sense. How does it last longer on high? How big is the battery?
“Throw” blankets are quite often 50" x 60" but this one is:
Dimensions:
- 40" x 50"
It is nice to have the weatherproof features and cordless feature for camping or other outdoor activity - features which justify the price being higher than other heated throws, but it is more of a “lap blanket” really. Many people would not even be able to keep this draped around their shoulders for warmth.
EDIT: Just going to say that I was surprised to only see ONE review of the ones I looked at commenting on the small size, so maybe this is exactly what people are looking for in a “stadium blanket”. My bad.
Slapping a fashionable brand name on cheap, thin garbage and charging 2x as much as the much cozier and fluffier sherpa Sunbeam ones? AND FOLKS WILL ACTUALLY BUY THIS.
Ah, capitalism. Heck yeah.
I was inclined to agree, but many of the battery operated blankets I found on the mothership were just as expensive or more expensive, though many were larger. With the 10% off today, it’s not a terrible deal.
Hmmm:
- This portable throw features 3 settings (low, medium, and high) with 4-6 hours of heat for long lasting comfort.
- Low setting: approximately 4 hours. High Setting: approximately 6 hours.
Features:
- Three settings with 2-4hr heat.
Lasts longer on high… but then the confusing 2-4 hr later on.
It’s like waiting for windows updates to finish. It will last “some time.”
Serious advice: click the Amazon ratings link and re-sort to most recent reviews. You can thank me later.
I thought that until I ready the description to see it is really a stadium blanket or for use camping or whatever. You charge it up and use it cordless.
I too use the corded electric nice sherpa 50" x 60" warming throws when I just sit around, as does most anyone at my home or visiting because I keep the heat very low. In fact I got a couple off of WOOT just a few months ago, and yes they were much lower priced (under $20) but those are not this woot at all.
ANSWERS
Correct size is 40 x 50
The temp settings were flipped on Amazon. We removed the incorrect ones. Should have been low 6 hours and high 4 hours
So these arrived…one was green/black I ordered. I also ordered a khaki/black…I got a second green/black instead. Also, one of the green blacks has a usb-c pack and connector in the blanket(cool), but the other is what I would describe as a somewhat proprietary/older pack with a barrel connector in from wall charger to the pack and blanket to the pack. Really not interested in keeping track of the barrel connector style. Would like to return since it’s kinda twice the mess up…color and inconsistent tech.
