Westinghouse Heated Throw Blanket, 50 x 60-Inch Flannel, 6 Heat Levels

For a reading session on the couch or a little extra warmth while watching TV, the Westinghouse Heated Throw Blanket combines a soft flannel surface with adjustable heat. Its 50 x 60-inch size is suited to throw-style use, it’s a different fit from a larger blanket intended to cover a whole bed.

Six heat levels and a timer let you choose a setting and set a heating window, while the memory function retains your preferred setting. The blanket is machine washable after you unplug the controller, which is useful for routine care.

Getting the most from it

Choose among the six heat levels for your preferred setting, and use the 2–10-hour timer when you want the blanket to stop heating after a set period. The memory function is intended to retain your preferred heat setting. For a practical evening setup, place it over your lap while reading or relaxing on the couch, then unplug the controller before washing. Do not use the blanket while wet. The product instructions also say to avoid folding it or placing heavy objects on the heating wires, so follow those directions when storing or using it.

Buyer feedback highlights the flannel’s softness and comfort, but reports about warmth are mixed: some people say it heats quickly, while others say it does not get warm enough or takes a long time. Feedback on durability also varies, including reports of early failures. These are individual customer experiences, not a guarantee of how a particular blanket will perform. It makes sense if you want a compact heated throw with adjustable settings for a chair or couch. It might not be a great match if you need a blanket that stays secured on a bed, as some buyers report that it slips.

How to use it

Connect the controller to set the heat level and timer for your use. When it needs cleaning, unplug the controller first and follow the listed wash and drying directions. Keep it dry during use, and avoid putting weight on the heating wires. The 50 x 60-inch format is easy to handle as a throw, but it is not presented as a full-bed blanket, choose based on whether you want warmth for a seated spot or broader bed coverage.

Should you buy it?

This Westinghouse throw is worth considering for couch or chair use if you value soft, double-layer flannel and want several heat settings plus a timer. The memory function and machine-washable care add practical convenience. If dependable, strong warmth or a blanket that stays in place on a bed is your priority, the mixed feedback on heating and reports of slipping are relevant reasons to consider a different style. Its clearest use is targeted comfort in a throw-sized format, rather than covering a bed.
