I'm on a run of very useful products lately, maybe because I pick and choose carefully what suits my needs, but the choices of products do seem very timely.  I've thought about getting an electric blanket in the past, but never decided on one.  In the product description there is a key passage that says why I wanted this.  This truly can save you some money on your heating bills.  Now for some reason the Amazon Vine seems to think I'm a woman with dogs and kids, but none of that is true, I'm a 62 year old man, an educated software programmer, with a penchant for electronics, tools, anime, non-fiction books, and some science fiction, as well as travel, and cooking.  This unfortunately will not dissuade their assessment of my likes as it was clearly targeted for a woman to curl up with a good book in a cool house.  My sister in law always wears sweaters because she gets cold in summer AC or even the milder temperatures of spring and fall.  I don't have that problem, but I do have a big older home with a high heating bill of over 400 a month in the winter months.

I like this for two main locations, bed and a reclining lift chair in front of the big TV in the living room.  I had it put there when I recently had hernia surgery, and needs something that would not strain my stomach muscles to get up and down.  Unlike the chair in front of the other big TV in the bedroom, this area gets cold.  The vents are fewer in this section of the house and if the gas is running the heat, this area is colder than two of the bedrooms closer to the furnace.  To get it warm, I have to turn the thermostat to about 72, and in the winter that uses a lot of cash.  This large throw is perfect.  The split opening allows me to drape it around me, and the heat control has four levels (five if you include off), green for low, yellow for medium, amber for medium high, and red for high.  I can let the temperature fall to sixty and not be the least uncomfortable sitting there.  In bed it's the same.  My Tempurpedic foam adjustable bed is nice for support, but despite the cooling technologies, it can still be a hot mattress to sleep on.  I have to balance freezing or sweating based on the heating system level.  Not so anymore I let the heat drop to 58 and used this to make up the slack, green level or low was fine.  I may experiment with low 50's when were further into winter.  I don't think you should dial down much lower than 50 though; the pipes can freeze more quickly if it really gets cold and you are still breathing the cold air, which can't be too great for the lungs.

One minor drawback, that I think the Japanese experience with the Kotatsu, a heated table close to the floor often covered with a blanket for comfort in cold apartments or houses.  That drawback is wanting to sleep; I fell asleep during a pro-basketball game, and some of my favorite shows with this.  The warmth makes you want to go to sleep if you are relaxed, so maybe a hazard if you have work to do.  Still a drawback can be a plus if you really need the rest.  Like the description the feel of this is light and plush, and the size of it is fine for a single individual.  If sleeping with a spouse, get a regular electric blanket, but for one this is good.  Recommended:  for those who want to save on heating bills, and women with the cold skin temperature issue.

Great product, warms and controls the temperature in our room really well. Switches from high to low heat which saves energy and runs quieter once the room is warm.

This is a great electric matress pad. Duel control, it heats up fine. I put matress pad on (which is soft) and then the old matress pad over it (to help protect it) and then the fitted sheet. It works great, keeps me nice and toasty all night long. I never have used an electric blanket or matress pad, and I am sorry I did not try this product sooner, the heat radiates up into the blankets and comforter making them warm for when we climb into bed. Automatic 10 hour shut off works great too, I set heat on 30 min before I go to bed.  Soft Heat has a 5 year warrenty. Definitely worth the money spent.

This thermostat has fan control functions that are not available on any other thermostat that I could find. Sometimes in the spring and fall neither the heat nor the air conditioning run at all. This is great for the utility bills, but the air in our house gets a little stale. I wanted to have the furnace fan come on periodically to move the air. This thermostat lets you select a "Refresh" mode for the fan. It has 4 selectable durations for the fan to run. You can choose 10, 15, 20 or 30 minutes, if the fan has not run for the past hour. What a great idea! Additionally the fan can be controlled as a part of user definable programming. This thermostat is perfect for saving energy and adding to the comfort of your home. We have a split level house. So hot air rises, of course. This thermostat lets us mix the air from the highest part of our house to the lowest part of our house, automatically. Once you figure out the touch controls, it works great. We have had it in use for about 1.5 years and have had no problems. Highly recommended.

These work great!  Haven't had them long, but so far so good.  Bought them for my store as an extra heat source.  Nice to have a heater with an adjustable thermostat.  Set it higher during the day when I am here and turn it down at closing.  Saves on the electric bill and the store stays comfortable.

I had this heater recommended by a friend and I work out of my house and am in one room most of the day. I use this little heater to heat the room I am in and can turn down the thermostat which saves me lots of money on my heat. I love it and it heats the room very well.

great for heating and cooling  Will buy another when this stops working  I love how you can see what temp the room his by the thermometer on the heater and how you can set the temp  you want room to get.  I really saved on my heating bill using this.  Was in a gas heated home in Atlanta and my heating bill was never over $60 month once I started using this  where as before this my gas bill was about $160 mo.  and using it my electric bill was not any higher  I saved about $150 a month utilizing this as my heat and not using the furnace.  No need to heat the whole house when you only using one room.  And  my room stayed toasty

Took 5 minutes to install will pay for itself in the next few months, when you have teenagers that have a bedroom/bathroom and den downstairs with its own A/C unit, none of them ever mess with the thermostat but somehow it always makes its way to 65 degrees. Then in the middle of summer they are down there with blankets on complaing it is cold. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to keep their utility bills lower than what they are.

Great product for saving on your electric bill. I plug my cable box into the outlet with constant power so I do not have to load my channels every time. I plug my Tv into the outlet that controls power to the others, this way once my Tv is turned off, my receiver, PlayStation, and other  devices are also shut down when the power is removed. This power center has also save me from a few power surges in the few years I have owned it. Great product would recommend for anyone looking for some protection and a great way to save power!

According to my gas company, keeping humidity and temperature within a certain range can save money.

I got two of these to monitor a couple of rooms and have something to compare thermostat readings, and I was able to make some adjustments.  Cut heating bill by about 1/4.  These things are awesome.

The soft head mattress pad does just as it says.  Being cold natured, I'm normally not a big fan of heating pads.  However, one the first few settings, this pad delivers a very subtle, comfortable heat that keeps you comfortably warm all night.  This would be great for colder climates, and those trying to save a little money on their heating bill (assuming it's cheaper to power this than heat the house some extra degrees).

Pros:

+ Delivers a comfortable, subtle heat as advertised
+ Controls are straight forward
+ Reasonably well-made

Cons:

- When the pad comes loose from the corners of the mattess, the attached plastic connector on the corner (see picture) pokes me in the back.

We purchased this heater last winter to save on home heating costs. It has performed admirably. I was so pleased with it that I bought another one for my son's dormitory room in his school. It's easy to operate and the thermostat setting ensures that you don't overheat the room. Just remember to follow the instructions and be sure to unplug from the wall before leaving your home as the manufaturer says.

these are extremely useful and can bring down your heater expenses at least by 10~20 %. its a must buy before winters, should take you 15~20 minutes to put on each window, all by one single person.

Liked this so much, I bought 3 of these. Been using these in the bedrooms for the last few winters. Really love the remote control and the temperature settings so that I can easily adjust comfort level. Definitely recommend if you have a smaller room and don't want to rack up heat throughout the house to save energy and money.

Works like a charm and with two controls you can use one side or the other which is perfect for energy saving. My mom is finally warm after trying many other things to keep her warm and comfortable all the time. It a great value to which in my book makes it a win win.
