Two years ago I bought my gf an electric blanket from BB&B online. It cost around $60 and assumed that it would at least last us 5 years.
It turned out to not be the case, after 3 months of regular use, the blanket’s control module stopped working, and required that I call the manufacturer to send us a new one.
The new blanket lasted us until the beginning of spring but we didn’t realize it until we took the blanket out of the closet when the fall chill arrived. Same deal, called manufacturer and they just sent us a replacement.
It’s winter again and we’ve got 5 blankets that do not work at all in our closet. I see no point in calling for a new blanket if it won’t even last 4 months. If anyone knows of a brand of electric blankets that actually lasts, please list them below, I don’t mind to pay a premium if they at least last multiple years and the warranty is airtight
Edit: the brand is Brookstone from London Luxury Brands

What brand is electric blanket you gotten?
I got sunbeam, mine lasted 7 years before my cats torn the cable. My mom had old one don’t know the age but it lasted awhile. It just got to point where it wasn’t heating up good
