Throw or electric blanket?

A heated throw is made for sitting on the sofa or working at a desk. An electric blanket is designed around the bed. They solve different problems, so we prefer naming the best use rather than pretending one universal ranking fits both.

Always follow the maker's instructions for washing, folding, storage and overnight use. Replace a blanket if the cable, controller or fabric shows damage.
