No more grandma's image: the heated blanket is back in use
18.10.2023
Translation: machine translated
I'm too young to have a heated blanket; that's been my motto until now. But I've been secretly gaga over this cosy electric gadget for years. The fact that it's becoming more and more popular is helping me out of this confused situation.
One product haunts my shopping basket. Every time I order something online, I take it out of the basket only to put it back in again wistfully, all the while promising myself, "next time!"
From the retirement home to social media
But buying me one? Never in a million years! I'm not... old. If it did manage to make its way into my basket, it's because of the flat I live in: it's in a typical old, poorly insulated building in the north of Germany. My desk is right next to the draughty window and, from October onwards, as I type on the keyboard with frozen fingers, each day of teleworking magically catapults me back to the last Ice Age.
The pandemic and the energy crisis are encouraging this trend
The blanket offers you 180 x 130 centimetres, six different temperature levels and can even go through the washing machine at up to 30 degrees. Some new products in our shop also invite you to snuggle up in them: for example, the Asmi model, which you can attach with a zip and wear like a cape; extremely practical if you want to move around with it or have your hands free.
You'll find all the other heated blankets in our shop here. There are loads of different sizes and colours to choose from. I'm still not sure which product to choose. But I'm sure there'll be a purchase soon; for real this time. Or maybe I'll ask for one for Christmas so someone else can finally take matters into their own hands and free me from this inner torture.
So dare the heated blanket!
