Can I use an electric blanket over this topper?

Yes, you can use an electric blanket. Make sure you purchase with the waterproof cover which has deep pockets and will cover your entire mattress and topper.

I don't know. Get a battery powered portable radio (no power cord---it will act as an antenna), tune it to a station with a respectable signal then wrap the radio in one of the blankets and see if it interferes significantly with the signal. If it does, then the blanket is providing some electrical shielding; if not, then it isn't any good for that and you should just use aluminum foil. We used aluminum foil and copper tape in the Air Force and it worked great. Just be sure to leave plenty of air holes.

I have not had any issues with overheating using this topper. I put a foam topper on my futon under the topper and that has worked out quite well.

I don't know for sure, but my supposition is that most of the warmth and comfort would be absorbed by the memory foam . I think an electric blanket would be more suitable and will warm the bed nicely. I happen to have both, and use them both. Good luck...

IMO you don't. Washing will substantially reduce or end the service life of any electric blanket. But, if you must, I'd say spot wash only by hand. The label says delicate cycle in the washer is ok and line dry. Well maybe, but when I've tried that with other electric blankets they ceased to function. I wouldn't recommend it.

Always put the electric blanket on top. We absolutely love ours. We used electric blankets a lot back in Indiana but had not used one in Texas until last year. It will keep you toasty and we love that ours has dual controls as my husband doesn't like as much heat as I do. We highly recommend this beautiful blanket. We just leave the electric cord between our mattress and box springs all year so it is easy to hook it back up again when we need it back on the bed.

That shouldn't be a problem at all as it only uses the earth energy. Even if you plug it into the wall outlet. After all, you can use electric blankets with hospital beds.

We recommend you do not use either electric blankets or heating pads with our memory foam toppers. The memory foam material responds to your body temperature, and the additional heat from electric blankets or heating pads causes the mattress to respond to that heat instead of conforming to your body. Longer periods of exposure to the heat from electric blankets or heating pads may damage the memory foam material.

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...

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.

Sorry but I have not had that happen-I would contact customer service at Sunbeam for some guidance.One thing for certain, electric items like these whether a throw or blanket becomes a fire hazard if crumpled and the contacts get broken.This may be a a safety warning of such.I would not use until you get an answer. There are several documented cases of fires from damaged electric blankets.Never lay on top of it.

I'm sure it can, just like any other foam topper. Lots of info on how to do it if you google it. Most talk about using an electric knife. Just check the internet.

I don't think It would hurt to put a fleee table warmer ontop the foam toppe. it would give it a softer fee to lay their and g comfortable

This item should be used as a mattress pad and fitted sheet always go on the bed over any mattress pad. I have found that heated mattress pads are more effective than electric blankets because heat rises from the pad and warms the inside of the covers where you sleep instead of warming the air in the room above the covers.

There might be a way to do this but it would be difficult since the electric one is built in. It would require disassembly of the built in unit. If to be used where no electric outlet available such as camping its better to get a manually inflatable mattress.

Launder like any other electric blanket. Best option is dry clean. Using a table cover over the warmer should keep it sufficiently clean for many uses unless there is a spill or excessive soiling that penetrates the cover.

I can't imagine why it wouldn't be safe. Surely it doesn't get that hot! We have our bridge under a 2" memory foam topper and the bridge is similar material. We use an electric blanket some and have had no issues.
