Luxury Heated Throws & Electric Blankets

Stay cozy during the colder months without sending your energy bills soaring. Our premium collection of electric heated throws at Simco Direct delivers instant, targeted warmth directly to you. Perfect for curling up on the sofa with a good book, relaxing in front of the TV, or staying comfortable while working from home, a heated throw blanket offers luxurious comfort and cost-effective heating.

The Perfect Blend of Comfort & Energy Efficiency

Rather than heating an entire room, localized heating allows you to stay toasty while keeping central heating costs to a minimum. Our electric throws combine ultra-plush, touchably soft fabrics with advanced heating elements designed for rapid, even heat distribution.

FAQs

  • How much does it cost to run a heated throw blanket in the UK?

    Heated throws are exceptionally energy-efficient, typically consuming between 100W and 150W of power. Depending on your electricity tariff, running a heated throw costs only a few pence per hour—substantially less than running central heating or a convection space heater.

  • Are electric heated throws safe to leave on while resting?

    Yes, modern heated throws are built with strict safety standards. They feature automatic shut-off timers (usually adjustable between 1 to 9 hours) and built-in overheat protection systems. However, for safety reasons, they are intended for conscious relaxation and should not be used continuously overnight while sleeping unless specified as an underblanket.

  • Can you machine wash an electric heated throw?

    In most cases, yes! The control unit and power cord are detachable. Once disconnected, the fabric blanket can be washed in a washing machine on a delicate or gentle wool cycle at 30°C. Always refer to the specific care label instructions before washing.

  • How long does a heated throw take to warm up?

    Most of our electric throws feature fast-heat technology, allowing them to start warming up within minutes of being turned on. For the fastest warmth, turn the blanket to its highest setting for 5–10 minutes before dropping down to your preferred maintenance setting.

  • What is the difference between a heated throw and an electric underblanket?

    A heated throw is designed to be draped over yourself while sitting or lounging on a sofa, chair, or top of a bed. An electric underblanket is designed to fit flat beneath your bed sheets to pre-heat the mattress before you go to sleep.
