Default Is an electric blanket an inductive load?

Well I think an inductive load would be a motor, cos it has a coil. Most

That's exactly what I'm querying, though. The element snakes around
the blanket layers alright, you can see that plainly enough, but what
is not visible without cutting it open is if it - the element - formed
from *coiled* resistance wire?
