Having a warm and cozy bed is imperative during the winter season and, for many of us in colder climes, that means whipping out the heated blanket. As a recent convert to the technology, I can attest to its brilliance - I'm honestly not sure how I ever lived without one. With using it so frequently, however, it could certainly do with a wash, but the prospect of mixing water with electricity raises a whole host of questions.
Creating a cozy bedroom is at the top of my to-do list every December, and the electric blanket forms the foundation. There's no greater feeling when the weather's cold and crisp than getting into clean sheets with your throw switched on for some extra warmth. The only trouble arises when I'm faced with how to wash it, and since we've all heard the warnings surrounding water and electricity, it's understandable if you have similar concerns.
