When it is cold do you need 2 of these blankets?

Imagine that it would depend on what type of climate you live in; you could use just one and if you're cold throw another blanket that's around to see if that is warmer for you - and after that you might know if you need more that one Vellux Blanket.

Depends on how warm you keep your bedroom....if 72 you probably only need 1 and a sheet; if 62 buy a queen and fold it over so that it's double. Just a thought.

I'm going into my 3rd winter on 2 of my snuggle safe's..and my second winter with the other 2. I use them every winter for heating feral cats igloos. I use 2 per cat bed/igloo with blankets on very cold days and nights. My cats love them!

Depends on which part of the country you live in. Mine is fluffy and warm, but if you live in cold climates you might need another blanket

Hi...you can but they are not as bad as when I slept ontop of my regular electric blanket and......the pad is AMAZINGLY warm. It is a great investment!

We started using the blankets yesterday and accordingly to the pros, it's not necessary to remove them unless the temperatures reach over 80 degrees.

I think the fiber glass blankets may work. Thy are loose,yet tight,so it would work better than that other one.

I have the lightweight comforter. For a really warm comforter you may want the regular weight version, or add another blanket on top of this one. That's what we do if it's really cold but the comforter still works in warmer weather too. Excellent quality, you'll like it :-)

On the colder night I occassionally use another blanket. I would consider this fairly thin, probably closer to your summer quilt, not a heavy winter quilt

I'm pretty sure they don't want you to use either a heated mattress pad (my fav way to stay warm when it's cold) or even an electric blanket but go to their website and make sure for yourself.

I don't anticipate a problem with cold temperatures. However, we never got to try it in the winter--because our 95 lb rescue dog pulled this from the ground. Not one, but two! So use with caution

I've had this blanket for the last two winters, now is on the bed for my third winter. I love it. I have a plain fleece blanket under it and a light comforter over it (with a top sheet over all, to catch cat fur and paw prints). I think the layering helps the heat build up, as well as protecting it from pulling and damaging the wires when adjusting covers during sleep. It is not super hot like a heating pad would be but is plenty warm for me. I usually pre-heat for 15 min or so while getting ready for bed. It is nice and warm when I get in, and often I turn it down or even off at that point. I've had this blanket for the last two winters, now is on the bed for my third winter. I love it.

I think it depends on how cool your house is. It's warm but lightweight. If you keep your house cool at night, you might want to put something over it. My husband is always cold. I put another cover over him.

No! It get's too hot. Kats does however make battery blankets for that purpose.

It doesn't get cold, that is for sure. It is pretty warm, I would say, provided one has blankets and the like.

Hi Katie,I don't think you're supposed to. Depends on your climate. I have two outside but one on a porch and one way under the eves on the house. Haven't had any problems. But..not winter here yet. At 20 below zero F, that's going to be tough. 90% is keeping them dry and out of direct sunlight. Keep them powered all the time in the winter (that's the plan) because they will generate a little heat. If the wind's not too bad they might survive.

2 warmers to a package. I've heard you can seal a warmer in a zip lock bag to keep it from air, but have never tried it.

I would use a sheet and blanket also, but it depends upon how cold you get. It's a nice set - very silky.
