Review title: Excelllent (and warm) product
Product review: December 2008: The blanket died on me. I probably mistreated it once too often and I'm sad about itspassing. Just to let you know that it won't take everything you dish out. I think I killed it by leaving itin the drier for too long.I've owned this for 2 years now and have nothing but praise for it. It has survived dogs and cats (and sick dogs), been washed many more times than it probably should have been, and still works and feels wondeful. No hot spots, no cold spots; the boost feature is excellent; the 12-hour timer works and is a godsend for those of us whose minds tend to other (and we hope better) things than turning off the blanket. My only complaint about it -- and it's really minor -- is that the controls freak out if you unplug the blanket but leave them plugged in. This happens frequently around here, when the aged dog "leaks" on the blanket and I have to wash it. A safety feature, no doubt.
