I bought 3 of these blankets as Christmas gifts and one for myself as we live in a very cold climate. All three stopped working within 6 weeks and even when they did work they did not heat up very fast and were not very warm once they did. Not sure what the malfunction is but these were definitely not worth the money.

Used the blanket in the car Christmas day for about 1.5 hours. Plugged it in New Years Eve, no longer works. Checked the fuse, ok. Checked the outlet, ok. Blanket just died. Thanks to Amazon for good return policies.

I ordered this from amazon on Black Friday, 2009. After several attempts in different cars, I've returned it. It just does not heat! At best, by the time we reach my son's school, which is a 10 minute drive, it feels room temperature...probably because by that time the car's heater has warmed it up to the touch.

Not only does it not work as it should, the quality is very disappointing. Imagine two thin pieces of fleece covering wires, which are plainly felt when the blanket is over/under you.

I'm happy a few people have been happy with the performance of this blanket, but sadly, I am not one of them. If you decide to order this, be sure to test it out immediately so you will be able to return it to amazon within their return time frame if it doesn't work.

The RoadPro 58" travel blanket is a nice luxury riding in cold climates. The blanket is very soft and quite warm even when it is not plugged in. Once the blanket is turned on it provides a nice warmth throughout -without any noticeable hot spots. In general the blanket can provide warmth without feeling too "hot".

Areas that we enjoy-

Soft fabric not at all scratchy.

Relatively large

Works great!

Not too expensive

Easily plugs into your car's outlet

Takes about 5 minutes to achieve maximum warmth.

Areas for improvement

While the blue fabric is a slip-cover it can not be removed. It would be great if it could be machine washed since the blanket will often exposed to snow/slush/salt from the your shoes.

One temperature the heating elements are not adjustable

If you leave the travel blanket plugged in when the engine is off IT WILL DRAIN YOUR BATTERY! Be very careful, especially since car batteries are already less efficient in cold weather.

No plug in for home use the travel blanket can only be plugged into a 12V DC plug. There are ways that you can get around this but they do not come standard with the travel blanket.

Looking at the review it appears that there are many more negatives than positives, however the negatives are relatively minor. The final verdict is that it is soft and works very well to help keep you warm.

The reviews on this item looked good, so I ordered this in December as a gift. I tried it in my car, and my sister tried it in hers. It's a nice blanket, but you had to wait about 20 minutes to feel any kind of warmth at all. You could eventually tell that it was on, but it gave off no real heat at all. Buy only if you're looking for just a blanket.
