Tried to buy a new single electric blanket for granddaughter. Total
failure. It seems that all the current products have a life of 2
years and have been afflicted with auto shut off after 10 hours and
are low temperature only. The customer ratings are 2* out of 5 and
the customer service seems to be non existent. I bought a couple of
US superking electric blankets a few years back and these were
total crap in terms of heat output and have been scrapped. I went
back to the old monagram blanket and added a panel in the middle to
make it fit the bed. Maybe Dyson can build a product that works. I
won't hold my breath!


They killed lots of people.


**** all, actually.


Really? Stupid Australian ****.

That's why you can't get one.


Corse you can.


That is 30 years old though, I wouldn't expect the cable to last that long let alone a blanket. I wonder if he ate 30 year old meat pies too as they can be pretty dangerous.
