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.

since the wires are equally spaced, you could put the connection at the head or foot, I actually prefer mine at the head (don't feel them through my pillow) rather than the foot.

I can't but I also bought a regular cheap pad to lay over the top plus my fitted sheet. I don't even know its there. Plenty warm. Sometimes number 2 setting gets to warm for me. I really doubt you'll be disappointed.

Yeah I had the same problem. I had to scoot the couch closer to the wall and you really have to lay with your feet toward the end of the couch closer to the wall with the outlet. I'm not sure how other blankets work to know if this is a good design or not. I just assumed that to be electric you had to plug it in so you were stuck with the wires. Works good for me though, but it might be that I just don't know any better :).

You plug it into the bottom of the blanket, but the cord is really long, so you can place the controls anywhere along the bed. From the foot of the bed to the head of the bed.

There are two white molex plugs at the bottom of the bed, one on each side of the (king-sized) blanket. The cords run underneath the bed and (for ours) plug in to the blanket at the foot of the bed about where the mattress meets the box spring (where the foot of the blanket hangs down). The foot-board of our bed hides the cords from view; otherwise I'm not sure how you would keep from seeing the cords. During the summer months, we just unplug the blanket from the bottom of the bed and remove it, but we leave the cords hidden under the bed so we can easily reattach the blanket anytime we need it.

I found that the mattress pads are very generous in size. If your mattress is not overly thick, it will probably fit, since these are sized to fit up to 18" mattresses. I use a 100% cotton quilted mattress pad over the top, so that I am not sleeping directly on the polyester pad. I do not feel the wires, but I can feel the connector at the bottom near the feet. I just put extra padding over that, and have no problems.

No. They just look big. They're not too noticeable. The wires are good. Don't put them in your pocket or sleep them with laying on your stomach because you will mess up the wires that way. They're flat so they don't tangle very easily.

No, there are wires that connect the control to the blanket. One of those wires broke off at the insert to my blanket. The blanket was less than 2 years old. I contacted the manufacturer and they replaced the control. The new one is just like the last one. It is not very well made, use care when using, the wires are fragile.

The mattress pad is evenly heated. You can feel the wires if you try. They are not noticeable when laying on the pad.

Yes you can, especially the connector at the foot of the bed. We have a sleep number split king which I love but these heated pads are thin so you feel the wires and connector. Also the thin nylon mesh type material used to make the sides will tear easily. The elastic is too stretchy so not a snug fit. I recommend Beautyrest brand as that was my last king which is 10 years old and is still in use plus held up to washing each year after use.

No, I've not. You could, however find cloth you like and decoupage it on to the front, back and inside covers. The wire binding would still show, of course.

I have on top of a foam topper. The foam was reflecting my body heat, after putting on the mattress pad I felt much better. Remember that the pad is wool covered by cotton sheeting.

No I can not. With it being kind of a quilted pattern, I do not feel them, and that's with running my hand directly across the top of it.

No, neither my nor i can feel the wires and my wife is like the princess and the pea, if was a way to feel them she would. So, no the wires are not an issue.

I guess it depends on the 'depth' of your mattress as to where the connecter lays. I scoot my down as far as I can as to not feel it, I also am not as concerned w/ heat by my head/shoulders as I am my Feet! Good Luck.

Yes it does and they are easy to use. Just remember, the cord must be put on the blanket main plug BEFORE you plug it in to the wall socket. I learned that the hard way. It is a good blanket.
