I bought this heated blanket last year around November because it started to get chilly here. It worked great and was absolutely perfect and got me through the cold weather...it was literally the best thing I purchased or so I thought. When I brought it out this year a few weeks ago I noticed my bed wasn't getting warm and the blanket had stopped working. I paid well over $70 for a heated blanket to only last me for a few months of winter last year. I will never buy a heated blanket, or anything for that matter, from this brand ever again. I typically don't write reviews on things when I purchase them, but I'm extremely disappointed in this particular item and wanted to potentially warn others of a possible issue with these things.
