One of the scariest home appliances I know of.
I prefer to go out of my way and buy a real wool blanket to gift or for myself.
Why? Fire risk?
And electrocution.
If you can ever manage to do so, get a rabbit pelt blanket. Even better if from a small home family farm.
I once got introduced to one of these blankets by a person that rears rabbits for food and at some point decided it was time to stop wasting the pelts.
After some experimentation with tanning at home, the person learned how to slat cure and never let another go to waste.
It's extremely soft and heavier than what is expected but not in a cumbersome way and develops a lot of heat in a very short time.
Interesting, I'll see if I can feel one at a store.
