It’s a bit patchy

published

I bought this blanket to replace an old one. I thought with all the extras it would be great, but not so much. It has 4 different zones, 2 for feet and 2 for upper body so you can control where you want it, but it really didn’t get very hot even on the highest setting and it would turn off all by itself in one zone

Great Offering from Aldi

published

Very happy with this purchase for my kids bedroom. Cheap and cheerful Aldi offering and what appears to be a well made and quality product. Separate zones for heating upper or lower body and a handy timer on each side are included in this particular design. I'd definitely buy another one should they come around again next season. Hopefully they will offer them in King size as Queen appeared to be all that was available at my local.

Multi zone - very handy!

published

Bought the electric blanket from Aldi; fiddled around with the settings before I could literally 'set and forget'. I really the convenience of setting the blanket temperature and timer and then forgetting about it; is wonderfully warm when I get into bed at night and slowly turns itself off ....

Has it's good points and not so good points

published

I like the fact that you can change heat setting for upper body & lower. The skirt design is great too, meaning if fits in same way as a fitted sheet, much easier than having to tie it.
But I'm disappointed in the heat settings. There's 9 settings and if you want real warmth you have to have it on 9, and I have had electric blankets in the past that are much warmer on the highest setting

Not Hot At First, Now A Little Better

published

When we first got this we thought we might never be warm, even nearly took it off and returned it. The instructions said to use the hottest setting (9) once for a few hours and then never to use it again because it could burn. We now use 9 every night before getting into bed to warm it enough - anything less is just lukewarm. Still need a blanket over the top on cold nights but it does an ok job, wouldn't buy it again.

Went bang yesterday

published

Bought on of these Easy Home electric blankets from Aldi about 6 weeks ago
Put it on yesterday and it went bang, controller now smells like burning and won't turn back on

Something has failed!

Will be taking it back this week to see what they say.

Looking back at other forums for previous ALDI blankets sold under the Lumina brand. They have recalled all of these in previous years,
it would seen they still are having the same issues with this new release under Easy Home

Edit. No hassle when I went to return. Full refund given even though I couldn't find the receipt.

Everything I need; at a great price

published

Really like this blanket
- 2 separate heating zones which means I can choose a different temperature for my feet from the body
- 9 temperature settings (up to 40 degrees)
- timer settings, from 1-9 hours. Means I can preheat the bed and ensure it doesn't overheat by staying on too long
- lower price than other brands I have tried, while having more features

Great Value, so far very good

published

Enjoying this electric blanket as can set how long you want it on for - 1 hour, 2 hours. Not less than 1 hour though.
I like that you can wash it. The plastic box I hardly notice - mostly when getting into bed. Have had it about month now.

Great value for money and working well

published

This electric blanket goes under the fitted sheet on our kind size bed. It has dual controls and each control has separate temperature settings and a top and bottom only mode as well as the whole side. I like warm feet but my torso is fine. My wife likes it pumped up a bit. So we are both happy. It seems to be very good quality and the price was $49.95.

Great value, works brilliantly

published

My neighbour has owned one for 2 years without fault. I purchased one this week after my $45 Kmart blanket failed within 3 weeks of purchase. For $10 more the Aldi blanket looks to be a higher quality fleece and material. Led backlit controller, 9 heat settings with individual zoning for body and feet on both sides of the bed.
Very happy with this product.
