I just want a blanket to lay between my microplush blanket &amp; bedspread to warm my bed before climbing into it. Will it live up to that purpose?

I think it should. I live inm Chicago where we're in a deep freeze right now. I have a top sheet, 2 of the fleece blankets and a quilt on the bed and I'm toasty. I think one of the fleece blankets should do the trick nicely and it's great for autumn/spring.

No. I have a full size blanket and it has one control, which is connected to the blanket. I have not had any issues with this--works fine. I keep the control within reach so I can turn the blanket down easily. It gets toasty warm.

I don't know about an electric blanket but I use a heating pad all the time. No problems noticed. But I do have a mattress pad on top of the foam.

Yes, every knight we reposition the blanket on the bed with equal drop on ech side. The next morning one side is on the floor and the other is barley on the bed. This happens even when my husband is out of town. It is a mystery to me. Any answers to this roving blanket is welcome.

Different people use "microplush" to mean different things. If you mean to ask if the dark portion is similar to microfleece, it is not. Both the light and dark sides of this comforter are made from the same polyester material and are of equal quality and softness. To me, the bedspread feels like a typical soft cotton, similar to cotton sheets (noting that it is not actually cotton, but polyester). I hope this helps!

I have the lightweight comforter. For a really warm comforter you may want the regular weight version, or add another blanket on top of this one. That's what we do if it's really cold but the comforter still works in warmer weather too. Excellent quality, you'll like it :-)

the controler failed & the company sent out a new one no questions asked. is it worth the money? well, i like the idea that the heat is produced w/12volts not 120. it does not heat up like ac tpyes but does get very warm. i like to turn of the blanket on before going to bed to give the blanket a chance to heat up the bed. the wire in the blanket is thin & the blanket is of very good quality. i would recommend this blanket only if you have concerns w/ sleeping w/ a blanket w/ 120 volts pulsing through it so closing to your body.

I have tried a blanket, and I found that you can maneuver it diagonally to fit into two sections out of the four. My queen top sheet works well folded in half, and the bottom sheet fits fine. I don't stretch out the elastic, so it can stay as one layer.

I suppose it would depend on your climate. I live in the Midwest where spring and fall can be chilly so I use my fleece blanket as a throw and put it on my bed at night. It is amazingly comfy!! In winter, during really chilly times, I use it more as a throw when watching TV or napping -- very snug, cozy and comfortable because it is so light. Using it under your comforter would, I think, make your bed warmer -- if that is what you'd like.

It should, mylar blankets are made to conserve your body heat. Can't tell you much, I use the mylar sheets for reflecting lights on my indoor garden, not to keep me warm..... good luck

Yes, I have it between 2 blankets and it has held up well over the year. It did come with some loose threads but I just trimmed them back and I have not had any other issues with the blanket.

It appears that it is a blanket. I put it on top of top sheet & under the 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...

Probably not great. It has some loft, so I wouldn't use it as a liner. It is a great blanket though

Hi. Unfortunately no, it's thick and cozy, my fav blanket by far but more suitable for a crib as it's long. The best solution would be to buy a pack of the thinner muslin swaddler. They can fold up very compact and doubled up they are thick and cozier. Congrats on the twins!

I have a deep (14 inch) mattress. Blanket hangs to the bottom of the mattress, but there isn't much to tuck in.

I've had this blanket for the last two winters, now is on the bed for my third winter. I love it. I have a plain fleece blanket under it and a light comforter over it (with a top sheet over all, to catch cat fur and paw prints). I think the layering helps the heat build up, as well as protecting it from pulling and damaging the wires when adjusting covers during sleep. It is not super hot like a heating pad would be but is plenty warm for me. I usually pre-heat for 15 min or so while getting ready for bed. It is nice and warm when I get in, and often I turn it down or even off at that point. I've had this blanket for the last two winters, now is on the bed for my third winter. I love it.
