does it take a long time to warm up
99255
My last electric blanket had a preheat setting that allowed a quick heat-up and that was my biggest concern when purchasing this blanket. Don't worry....it warms up beautifully! I turn it on when I am getting ready for bed and it is so toasty when I get in! I love it so much I just ordered another one for my guest room. I hope this helps!

It warms up very quickly! I turn it on, then wash my face and brush my teeth to get ready for bed and it's already warm. If I remember correctly, it automatically goes on high to heat quickly and then sets to the temperature you specify.

No. I never timed it, but in about 10 minutes, the chill is off the sheets when you climb into bed.

Nope. I turn it on as we don't he prebed dance....face washing tooth brushing etc. it's warm by the time we crawl in.

It takes forever and does not get fully warm. Do not waste your money on this blanket.

Generally less than 5 minutes at a setting of 4 or 5. We usually turn it on as we're getting ready for bed and by the time we climb in it's nice and warm.

It is low-voltage DC and low-power, so it takes 5-10 minutes to warm up, and it shuts off automatically if left on for ~10 hours. We turn ours on (1-button) as we're getting ready for bed, and it is always plenty warm in time. I use mine on level 2 (of 10), because the higher settings can get very toasty.

Not at all. I usually turn it on 5 min before getting on bed. The bed sets itself on high until reaching the set temp then drops to the setting you put it on.

Hey Boni - this elect blanket is the most unique I've ever used! I'm a aged Vermonter who now can't stand the cold... so first time I plugged it in I expected a warmed bed when I got in. That wasn't the case. What really happened was - almost immediately I was warmed by a combination of my own body heat & the blanket's heating system. Now, during cold nights my setting is not much higher than 2... and I'm comfy & cozy. The blanket holds your heat better than any I've ever used. Enjoy!

The unit warms up in about five minutes, but it takes a lot longer, 30 minutes usually, to get get a fairly thick towel nice and toasty.

no, but the tiny cooler pack that comes with it gets warm fairly quickly. Just in several hours....so if the timer is set for 4-8 hours or more, the food will not be very cold by then

you will be able to feel some heat after it warms up. it is not fan forced air. it will take a few minets to warm up and then the heat rises.

Takes me 40 to 45 minutes. Could go longer once you know the whole sequence and do all the warmup exercises. You could modify it to meet your needs.

There is about 3 to 3.5 minutes at the end for cool down. No added time for warm up, unless you do the 12 minute "Cold Start." I do the program early in the morning and have never done the Cold Start and it's been fine without. I also suggest doing your own stretches instead of the "cool down" as the stretches Tony does are not great, in my opinion.

Nope! It only takes it about a minute to 'warm up'. When (a) light goes solid - it's ready to use. Just start moping!!! I had a shark - I know what your talking about. This is 100% better! You'll enjoy it.

It heats up pretty quickly. I turn it on right before a client comes in ...and the table doesn't feel cold for them. You can set the temp for one of 5 settings and either 1,2, 3, 4 or 8 hours.

There's no delayed start that I know of. It will automatically revert to warming once the timer is done though.

it don't take too long to warm up , an 5 mins not that long for a pot of cold water to get hot , try again or just exchange it if ur not happy

No. It has a warm setting that will activate after the timer reaches zero but no delayed start times.

Hi Elizabeth, The iron takes a couple of minutes to heat up but the heat is high. I enjoy having this product. Once you get the practice of using it, you'll love it.

On the upper right of the machine is a section they call a warmer. Put your cup they're and it will warm up. .. But it takes time. Temperature settings are done at set up. There's a nice cd that they ship with it that explains alot.

You asked for a subjective assessment. The same amount of time will seem "long" to some people and "short" to others. If you want to know if YOU will think the warm-up time is long or short, you will need to ask "How long does it take...".

I havent a clue why it would take longer...sure you have the button with the heat source on...if so...maybe the heating unit is going out???? I dont use mine that much so I cannot really say-except what a bummer...

There is no warm-up. There is a cool down of slightly over 3:00 minutes. Over all workout can be completed in 1/2 hour.

It depends on the setting you have it on. The two times I tried to use it, it took around 2 minutes to heat up to medium high.
