Dreamland Hurry Home Heated Throw Discount

Price on writing: ~~£105~~ £76 | Buy now from Amazon

Energy prices have just gone up again, so it's a great time to invest in the type of products that allow you to stay warm without cranking up the thermostat this winter. Mumsnet users really rate heated gilets and heated airers for saving energy, but it's heated throws that are really worth their weight in gold.

Useful at your WFH desk, on the sofa or in bed, the best heated throws will keep you cosy for pennies per hour, wherever you are in the house.

So when we spotted this Dreamland Heated Herringbone Throw in the Prime Day Sale, we just had to share. With its luxurious feel, lovely emerald green colour and one, three and nine-hour timers, it's one of Mumsnet's most recommended heated throw blankets.

Let's take a closer look at the throw blanket:

The Dreamland throw I have washes well but it’s not one of the furry ones. [...]

I have a couple of Dreamland ones from Lakeland as like their 3 year guarantee. I have the herringbone design, found the husky, furry ones too heavy.

Well I got the Dreamland herringbone one in the end, mustard yellow. It isn’t thick at all, but I love the velvety feel of both sides, and it is flexible so I can wrap it around me easily. It is lovely, and I have no regrets returning the Alaskan one. [...]

Our verdict

Reviewed by Natasha Gregson: Read our full Dreamland Deluxe Velvet Herringbone Heated Throw review

With a sumptuous velvet fabric and a choice of four rich colourways (the emerald green is our favourite), the Dreamland Deluxe Velvet Herringbone Heated Throw is our pick for a stylish heated throw. After five months of testing, we were impressed with the design – it's super soft and looks fantastic as a throw even without the heating elements on.

It's not all style over substance, however – this throw certainly packs a punch when it comes to heating power, which is distributed evenly across the blanket. There's six settings to choose between so there's plenty of range, though we found the highest settings were actually a little too hot!

As with many electric throws, the main downside is the cost, so snap it up now while it's discounted in the Prime Day sale. It's also is cheap to run, and our tester reported that she'd recommended it to many friends who work from home as a replacement for having the heating on during the day.

What is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day (or days, to be more accurate) is a two-day sales event hosted on Amazon exclusively for Prime members, and has been a major event for the retailer since 2015. Prime Day traditionally runs in July whereas the newer seasonal event called Prime Big Deal Days offers discounts to Prime members in October. In 2024, the event runs on 8 and 9 October.

From gadgets and electronics to fashion, beauty, home goods, and beyond, previous Prime Days have had it all, and you can expect to snap up some excellent savings when the official deals begin.

Just remember to keep your eyes peeled for those lightning deals, too, as they pop up and disappear in a flash – they're the sneaky ones and only run for a limited time period.
