How to Keep a Warm Bed

Keeping a bed warm at night during cooler weather can be as simple as using a heated mattress cover. These mattress covers allow us to control the temperature of our beds and have the heat radiated from the bottom up. This allows for evenly distributed warmth without the use of lots of heavy blankets. There are lots of different kinds of electric mattress covers and there are certain features that are worth looking for such as:

  • Dual control settings – allows you to control which side of the bed gets heated
  • A separate heated area for the feet – allows for extra heat to keep our feet warm
  • An automatic shutoff timer after 10 hours – great option for safety
  • It should be washable and dryable
  • Look for one with tiny wires and a plush cover so that it is impossible to feel the wires at night
  • A good warranty – 5+ years is a good warranty to look for
