Hi all ,do any of you use electric blankets in your F.C or TT ,.s? A lot of electric blankets can now be machine washed,so they must be able to withstand a moist atmosphere.

We have bought one for the spring next year. My concern is will it cause condensation under the mattress?

You will find a lot with fc do use their electric blankets as keeping warm subject has come up before

You may find some coming onto the site in a while. Unless it is in search already I will go have a look

Cannot find anything yet is was only earlier in the year as we had an fc then

I am sure Lobeydosser used one?

We use electric mattress toppers from Argos.
They double up as ordinary toppers in warm weather, we have used them several times and have had no condensation problems what so ever.

We also have these...can't recommend them enough, they kept us warm and toasty in the cold weather in March and made the beds that bit more comfortable in the summer when they were kept switched off.  We have the double with dual controls so I can have it hot and hubby can switch his side off.
