The BOHEM heated blanket makes a very high-quality overall impression right from the moment you unpack it. The timeless, simple design in a subtle natural tone has a modern look and blends harmoniously into a wide variety of environments. The workmanship is impressive across the board: all seams are neatly finished, and the fabric feels pleasantly soft yet robust. The integrated control panel is discreet and well made, and the cable and connection are neatly enclosed. In short. The manufacturer places a transparent sustainability focus on energy efficiency in use (up to 10 times less consumption than room heating), durability, certified production, and plastic-free, recycled packaging. Overall, the BOHEM electric blanket makes a very positive first impression, which is convincing both visually and haptically.

As part of our practical test, we thoroughly examined the BOHEM electric blanket and documented the results using the specified test methods. After just a few minutes, the blanket showed even heat across its entire surface. There were no noticeable hot or cold spots, and even the edges were well heated. This created a cozy and even feeling of warmth that enveloped the entire body. The nine different heat settings allowed for flexible adjustment of the heat intensity. Depending on your needs, the blanket can be used as a mild “preheater” or as a stronger, comfortable source of heat. The control panel is simple and self-explanatory. A very helpful feature: the automatic shut-off after a defined time (up to nine hours) offers safety and prevents unintentional continuous operation of the blanket, especially when using it before falling asleep. It also has overheating protection. This allows you to relax without worrying about overheating or wasting energy. In everyday use, the electric blanket impresses with its high level of comfort. The material is soft, fluffy, and immediately feels pleasant on the skin. Small stains and dirt can be easily removed with a damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, a gentle wash cycle is recommended—according to the manufacturer’s instructions—without affecting the heating function. The manufacturer currently offers a choice of four colors and two different power connections.
