Can you feel the wires if you lay on top of the blanket?

You are not supposed to lay on top of an electric blanket, and no I've never done it, I would think you would feel them though.

My 76 year old Mom is the user of this product. She is very sensitive and does not lay on it but uses it as a cover only. I did ask her if she thought she would feel them if she was to lay on it and she thinks she would.

My Mom uses this item, she is 76 and has very sensitive skin. She says if she were to lay on she does think she would feel them.

Of course you would feel the wires if you lay on top of the blanket. However if you lay beneath it and use the product as intended you cannot. This is a product is a Blanket and as such is meant to be used as a covering. It is not a mattress warming pad.

I put it between the top sheet and my extra blanket. I have my bedspread over everything. I usually turn the electric blanket on half an hour before going to bed and shut it off when I get in. On the sub-zero nights, I just turn it down. This blanket works great.

Yes; the sides are wire mesh so heat radiates out of the sides as well as the top. You feel a stronger flow at the top, though.

The warmth is not the same as an electric blanket as it comes from the bottom, not the top. My husband is cold blooded, I'm not. He is able to stay warm and I just need enough to take the chill off. I guess it depends on how warm you want it. I'm happy to say I'm satisfied.

I found that the mattress pads are very generous in size. If your mattress is not overly thick, it will probably fit, since these are sized to fit up to 18" mattresses. I use a 100% cotton quilted mattress pad over the top, so that I am not sleeping directly on the polyester pad. I do not feel the wires, but I can feel the connector at the bottom near the feet. I just put extra padding over that, and have no problems.

I don't see why you couldn't just unplug the electrical part of the blanket and let it soak in the washing machine. However, I wouldn't let it agitate. Of course, you can spin it out! I also would drape it between two lines (if hung outside) or on a drying rack if dried inside. I wouldn't put any tension on the internal wires of the blanket.

I doubt you'd feel it if you had shoes on. You would definitely feel it barefoot and probably through socks though.You may want to be a little careful with the shoes though. The wires in this mat are *very* fine and shoes could probably break them or dislodge them from the mat surface.

You can not feel the wires in the mattress pad. It is very easy to sleep on. It has variable temp settings but no variable timer. However I do not recommend this product since the connector from the control unit to the mattress pad has melted and failed twice for me. There are scortch marks on the mattress pad. I changed to a different brand after it melted the second time.

You can't feel any wires they are so small and the contr connection is very small and not even noticed at the head of the matress pad. Heat is from 0 - 14

it does NOT itch to my wife or i. the bottom of the blanket feels like micro-fiber (very soft). the top is more like a combination micro fiber "silky" look and feel. the colors are very deep and rich and the set is very comfy. we have been very happy with it, hope that helps.

No. This blanket is very thin. I would not buy it unless you plan to put another blanket in top of it. Not worth the money.

No, you don't feel the wires at all. Temp settings are from 1-20. I've never set it higher than 4!

You do not sleep on top of it. It goes between your top sheet and comforter/bedspread, ie mattress and sheet, your body, top sheet, this blanket, bedspread.

No. You need an analog blanket. They don't make them anymore. But might find something on eBay.
