Argos shoppers rush to buy £60 heated throw that costs just '1p an hour to run'

With the weather cooling down and energy bills still a concern, many of us have been looking for ways to keep warm without racking up the extra energy costs.

And to help them avoid relying on their central heating during the upcoming winter months, many Argos shoppers have been praising a heated throw that is helping to reduce their heating bills.

The retailer's £60 Dreamland Heated Throw, which claims to cost just 1p an hour to run, will not only keep you cosy and warm with its soft material, but it could also slash hundreds off your fuel bills.

The energy-efficient blanket comes complete with a five minute heat-up time, six different heat settings and a timer with an auto shut-off for anyone worried about their energy usage during the night.

Argos has said the winter must-have is suitable for all night use and has a low energy consumption - making it the perfect buy for this time of year.

And you don't have to just take our word for it, as the energy-saving blanket has been a huge hit with over 700 five star reviews on the Argos website. Many shoppers were quick to praise the blanket as being a "godsend" for the winter and their heating bills.

"These throws are absolutely brilliant, there are a lot of different makes but after doing my own research Dreamlands came out on top. It heats up very fast and has an even distribution. Great for wrapping up on the sofa or putting on top of your bed. Will definitely use this before I put any heating on this year!", raved one review.

"Wonderful and cosy. Fantastic value for money and economical to use", praised a second.

"I bought this for my partner and it has been used every night for a month! She is over the moon with it and it means my heating bill is a lot lower, so everyone’s happy!", wrote a third.

"I bought this for a poorly relative, to keep him warm on the sofa. It’s been a godsend and is also being used by other members of the household instead of putting the central heating on. A fantastic purchase. Will be buying one for myself", praised a fourth.

"I bought this because of the rising fuel costs and I’m so pleased I did. This heated blanket is perfect for watching tv on a cold evening. I no longer need to heat my house and often fall asleep using it. The settings are perfect as it heats up quickly, then stays warm for an hour. You can choose between 6 heat settings and 3 timers", said a fifth who had recently purchased the throw.

The bestselling blanket also comes with a 2-year parts and labour manufacturer guarantee, meaning that you are covered if it breaks within that time frame.
