Super Soft/ Extra Cushy Electric Blanket

[joko]

Im looking for a super soft cushioned electric blanket - do these exist?

all ive ever had and seen have been stiff fabric with noticable wires going through it.

issue is, i have a a few conditions and i need more comfort in my bed, i have 2 memory foam toppers with the EB underneath the very thin one - but it kind of defeats the purpose of the mem foam, and its not comfortable - but the blanket is very comforting, the warmth etc

its the type that you could leave it on all night on low if you wanted, but i dont

i could potentially just remove it when i got to sleep, but i dont want to have to do that all the time, its large and itd be annoying i think

is there such a thing as an EB that works properly under a mem foam mattress?

im not sure what to do

i have a heated over blanket, which i rarely use, but i want the heat under me, on the mattress.

any ideas?

thanks

A heated mattress protector might well meet your needs. See those recommended here:

I just have mine under the mattress protector...even on the lower setting, it's plenty warm. I leave it on all night.
I like the idea of a heated mattress protector though.

thanks buen. ill check those out

im thinking whatever i use will defeat the purpose of having a memory foam mattress, so perhaps i need to use a small 'me sized' throw type one, underneath me while im awake etc, then kick it out of the bed when i go to sleep - which is a pain in the ***, but might be the only way.

I've never thought that an electric underlanket and memory foam go together (because memory foam is affected by heat)...and this seems to agree.

ive used mine together for ages and its totally fine, but some blankets are specifically compatible

[joko]

but the issue is exactly why im asking this question - you dont get the benefit of the mem foam with a electric blanket

I don't understand how you can machine wash and tumble dry an electric mattress protector.

[joko]

tilly you can with many electric blankets.

Just don't plug it in when it's wet.
