Is it best to use an electric blanket or a hot water bottle?
Winters nights get cold in some regions, and regardless of how many layer you have on, you still feel that you can't warm up sufficiently. The solution to the problem, of course, is to snuggle yourself under an electrically heated blanket: just plug it in, and keep warm. Seems easy enough, right? If this is against your principles then plump for a hot water bottle
Possible not quite that easy. The reputation of electric blankets unfortunately is not a good one. As recently as a decade ago, they had a tendency to injure their users, by causing electric shocks, burns or even fires. Older electric fires are still causing thousands of fires a year today, and people who can't feel heat can still be burned even by safer modern electric blankets.
If you use them with some care, electric blankets are safe enough providing you avoid buying secondhand and you can sense the heat. You may also consider simply using the electric blanket to warm the bed up before you get into it, but not actually sleeping underneath the electric blanket, instead unplugging and removing it before you go to bed. Avoid getting the blanket wet, and mixing the electric blanket with other blankets. As another precaution, you should replace it every few years if the condition deteriorates.
Many people regard all of these risk for something as simple as a blanket as not worth the effort. The best and most common alternative to the electric blanket is probably a hot water bottle, as hot water bottles cool down rather than getting warmer over time, and can be fitted with special soft covers to avoid burning you. They are obviously much cheaper and make great unusual gifts. The beauty is that you don't have to rely on the jaded old models that used to hang out on the shelves at Boots - many are now available online.
