A soft, reversible heated throw with real heat range and an auto shut-off, worth it if you can live with the controller cord sitting where the plug lands.

Overview
Westinghouse's reversible flannel-and-sherpa electric throw is a 50 by 60 inch heated blanket with six heat settings and a timer that shuts off automatically after 2, 4, 8 or 10 hours.
It is dual sided, silky flannel on one face and sherpa fleece on the other, so the same blanket can run cooler and smoother or warmer and plusher depending on which side faces you. ETL and FCC certification plus a built-in overheat protection system back up the auto shut-off timer.

- ETL and FCC certified
- Overheat protection built in
- Flannel and sherpa reversible fabric
Who it's for
Anyone who wants a throw-sized electric blanket for the couch, bed or office chair with more than one or two heat settings. Not sized for covering a full bed alone, since it is a throw rather than a blanket meant to reach both sides of a mattress.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers who bought it repeatedly across multiple blankets called it warm and cozy, with several noting it heats up fast and stays comfortable even after they turn it off partway through the night. The main complaint was the controller cord's fixed placement, which lands near the floor or across the chest depending on which side you use, and a couple of buyers said the blanket ran warm rather than hot on the highest setting or heated unevenly across the surface.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Reversible flannel and sherpa sides
- Six heat levels with four auto-off timer lengths
- Warms quickly according to most buyers
- Machine washable blanket with a detachable controller
- Controller cord placement can land awkwardly for some seating setups
- A minority reported uneven heating or a milder top setting
Performance notes
The controller offers six heat levels and four timer lengths, and washing is simple: unplug the control box, then machine wash the blanket itself. The recurring complaint in feedback is that the connector's placement forces the cord to one side, which can be awkward depending on where your outlet sits; a smaller number of buyers also reported uneven warmth or the highest setting running only lukewarm rather than hot.
