Can you feel the wires if you lay on top of the blanket?

You are not supposed to lay on top of an electric blanket, and no I've never done it, I would think you would feel them though.

My 76 year old Mom is the user of this product. She is very sensitive and does not lay on it but uses it as a cover only. I did ask her if she thought she would feel them if she was to lay on it and she thinks she would.

My Mom uses this item, she is 76 and has very sensitive skin. She says if she were to lay on she does think she would feel them.

Of course you would feel the wires if you lay on top of the blanket. However if you lay beneath it and use the product as intended you cannot. This is a product is a Blanket and as such is meant to be used as a covering. It is not a mattress warming pad.

I don't see why you couldn't just unplug the electrical part of the blanket and let it soak in the washing machine. However, I wouldn't let it agitate. Of course, you can spin it out! I also would drape it between two lines (if hung outside) or on a drying rack if dried inside. I wouldn't put any tension on the internal wires of the blanket.

Not yet. Good blanket, very pleased. Used with cover top so that wouldn't be a major issue for me anyway.

I doubt you'd feel it if you had shoes on. You would definitely feel it barefoot and probably through socks though.You may want to be a little careful with the shoes though. The wires in this mat are *very* fine and shoes could probably break them or dislodge them from the mat surface.

I put it between the top sheet and my extra blanket. I have my bedspread over everything. I usually turn the electric blanket on half an hour before going to bed and shut it off when I get in. On the sub-zero nights, I just turn it down. This blanket works great.

You do not sleep on top of it. It goes between your top sheet and comforter/bedspread, ie mattress and sheet, your body, top sheet, this blanket, bedspread.

Make sure you have the connection ito the blanket right, because if it's not the blanket will not heat up at all. that's what happened to me, it can go in two different ways but only one way works...

Hi...you can but they are not as bad as when I slept ontop of my regular electric blanket and......the pad is AMAZINGLY warm. It is a great investment!

No! Not at all! It was very comfortable. I do have a ceiling fan in my bedroom and used that most nights, I always used a light blanket, too, on the leg with the cast.

I returned the blanket. I wanted a replacement for a previous electric blanket that had two wireless remotes. Apparently no one makes a king blanket with wireless remotes. The blanket I returned had wires everywhere. I suspect if you unplug your blanket for ten seconds then power it up again, the code will disappear.

No, you don't feel the wires at all. Temp settings are from 1-20. I've never set it higher than 4!

The instructions say not to- I'm sure there's a flammability concern.As long as it is not thick, you should still be able to feel the heat/warmth.I don't have a foam top, but I am considering using an extra pad this year since I feel some of the coil bumps now that it is 4 years old. I turn my heater off as I fall asleep since I get TOO hot! :)

Yes, the padded cover over the top will allow you to position it under the bod comfortably. If you intend to lie on it more than 30 min. I would place a thin blanket between you and the heating pad. Remember, no auto shutoff so keep the setting low if you think you could fall asleep!

I would recommend giving it a try. Try it on a small area in the corner at first and set it to the highest setting. I cannot guarantee it won't damage your blanket, but if you're careful, I would think not.

I live in the South and do not turn my blanket on every night. I have had this blanket for about a year and still love it with no complaints. It really feels so nice to get into a warm bed at night and keeps my feet so toasty. Really love my electric blanket!

No. This blanket is very thin. I would not buy it unless you plan to put another blanket in top of it. Not worth the money.

You can not feel the wires in the mattress pad. It is very easy to sleep on. It has variable temp settings but no variable timer. However I do not recommend this product since the connector from the control unit to the mattress pad has melted and failed twice for me. There are scortch marks on the mattress pad. I changed to a different brand after it melted the second time.
