Heated throw blankets (also known as electric throws and heated blankets) can be a great way to get warm during winter. So which perform best?

Our lab test results will tell you which heated throw blankets:

  • passed our safety tests
  • are quick to heat up
  • use the least electricity
  • are comfortable to use
  • are the easiest to clean.

If you’re looking for an electric blanket for your bed, take a look at our electric blanket reviews.

We’ve also partnered with Shop Ethical on this update to show the ratings the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company.

Shopping links on the CHOICE website

CHOICE is an independent, nonprofit organisation dedicated to helping consumers. Clicking a link will take you to a retailer’s website to shop. While we make money if you buy through some retailer links, this doesn’t influence any of our rankings. 100% of the money we make goes straight back into our nonprofit mission. We’re currently testing this service and will consider providing more shopping links in the future. Tell us what you think.

Matthew Tung CHOICE test coordinator
Matthew Tung

I am a test coordinator at CHOICE, which means my job is to put all different kinds of products to the test. From babies' products like cots and strollers to small appliances like electric blankets and even pillows, I go through them all to separate the safe from the not-so-safe and determine which products are better bang for your buck. I hold a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Sydney, and prior to joining CHOICE I was in Hong Kong working in other international laboratories and running test programs for major brand clients. Being able to work at CHOICE means I can not only put my expertise to good use, but I can do it for a better cause as well. On top of my work at CHOICE, I'm involved in several Standards Australia technical committees on key product safety standards, including toys, children's furniture, and prams and strollers. Working in the laboratory, tearing down babies' products, and looking at safety standards was not on my list of future careers when I was at university, but I'm happy I made the choice.
