My thoughts on the sunbeam throw I threw in the trash the day my new soft heat throw came in the mail:

The sunbeam throw has a very few huge stiff cords running through it. The cords are held in place by a few tied strings located more than a foot apart on the throw. These strings are very easily broken leaving the heating cords to move and not heat large portions of the blanket.

The portion of the sunbeam throw that plugged in is located in a most inconvenient place with a too short cord and it is impossible to find or reach the controller. The cord plugs into the middle of one side of the throw about 8 inches from the edge. This leaves about a foot of cord sticking out that, depending on whether you put it on top or bottom. My feet were constantly tangled in the cord or the stiff cord stuck up in my face. Mysteriously sunbeam put the controller on a cord about 3 feet long originating from the plug in site. This configuration necessitates finding the cord, reeling it in, and finding the controller. The sunbeam timer (auto 3 hour off) never worked and the controller is so easy to bump that I was left having to reel it in every time I felt cold or hot and check it.

There is a clip on the controller to supposedly clamp it to an accessible place on the blanket. Because the cord is too short this leaves the only viable location you can clip the cord to the blanket requires the rather large plug to be in the center of your chest. The plug is so large and cord so stiff that this is uncomfortable no matter what you do. I could not remove the sunbeam cord plug from the blanket without breaking it so washing was impossible. Not that I would have trusted it for use after washing it. About 3 months after use the blanket began to heat only in a 1-foot radius around the power plug. The controller also began to be warm or hot whether the blanket was turned on or not.

A friend bought one at the same time I did. I used mine every day, she used hers a few times a month. A few months after mine quit heating hers did the same thing. This seems therefore to be normal poor performance depending on how often you use it.

Item was more like cheap felt than soft fleece. I wouldn't recommend this product. Sunbeam makes a better fleece throw this one.

Honest reviews on Sunbeam Dynasty Cuddle-Up Fleece Heated Throw Electric Warming

This blanket is good quality but it does not get warm enough. There are 3 settings-low, medium and high. On the high setting the blanket is slightly warm and not hot like other electric blankets Ive used. I would not buy this blanket because of this.

I absolutely love the heated throw. I keep it in my recliner and when I want a little extra warmth, I turn it on and cuddle up and since I am height challenged, it is just right to keep me toasty.
