What the AI looks for in Electric Throws
- Auto shut-off
- Require a timer and overheat protection. Throws are often used while dozing on the couch.
- Cord length
- Check that the cord reaches from the outlet to your seat without an extension cord. Short cords on throws are a common complaint, and extension cords add risk.
- Safety listing and washability
- Look for a UL or ETL listing and a detachable controller. The listing guards against fire and shock, and a detachable controller is needed for safe machine washing.
Brands that matter
- Beautyrest: Heated throws and blankets.
- Sunbeam: Long-standing heated throw maker.
What to avoid
- Sitting on the heating wires or folding the throw while it is powered.
