What people said

“Maybe it's a sign I'm getting old, but another great idea is having a remote controlled plug connected to an electric blanket. I can pre-warm my bed before I get home on cold winter nights.”

“Electric blanket. Always against them till my boiler died mid winter and then I bought one as a temporary measure. Now I wonder how I managed without it!”

“Heated blanket. Warm yourself up not your home.”

Good to know before you buy

Plug: 230V; buy Type G (UK/IE) or Type F (DE/EU) plug versions — do not import US 110-120V models.

EU / UK: Huge in UK/IE threads as a cost-of-living heating hack; buy local 230V (Dreamland, Silentnight, Beurer).

Ireland: No Irish delivery price on Amazon.ie when last checked. Amazon.co.uk may deliver.

    “I got a Dyson fan / air purifier /heater. Sits on beside locker. About €300 when I got it a number of years ago. Too warm in summer put on fan. Too warm at night put on fan in night mode. Only sitting in one room and don't want to stick heating on, put it on heat for a few mins to get toasty.”
