Families Opt for Electric Blankets to Save on Heating Bills
Matalan shoppers in the UK are flocking to purchase a bargain winter gadget that helps them stay warm without having to turn up the heating. With energy bills already high, families are searching for cost-effective ways to beat the cold this winter. The king-sized Silentnight White Comfort Control Electric Blanket, available at Matalan, is priced at just £28, down from £35. Meanwhile, the single-sized version is available elsewhere for only £20, £5 cheaper than the regular price.
A Toasty Feel on Chilly Winter Evenings
The Silentnight White Electric Blanket offers three heat settings, allowing users to customize their comfort. With elasticated straps and heat protection for peace of mind, this gadget is a simple must-have for staving off the cold weather. Many people use electric blankets under their sheets to warm up their beds before getting in.
Energy-Saving and Cost-Efficient
According to research from Uswitch, electric blankets use 100 watts of energy to warm a double bed before switching to a sleep setting or being turned off. Running a 100W electric blanket for seven hours a week would consume 0.7kWh of energy. Based on the current cap, it costs just 24p to run a 100W electric blanket for one hour a day for seven days. If used for one hour a day, every day of the week for a year, it would amount to a total cost of £12.48.
