Giselle Bedding Queen Size Electric Blanket Fleece

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this electric blanket safe to use in Australia?

Yes, absolutely. The Giselle Bedding Queen Size Electric Blanket is SAA and EMC-approved, which means it meets Australian safety standards. It operates on 220V-240V at 50Hz, which is exactly what you get from Australian power outlets. The blanket also has automatic shut-off protection and overheat protection built in, so you can sleep soundly knowing it's been designed with Australian safety regulations in mind.

Can I wash this electric blanket?

Yes, one of the best features of this blanket is that it's machine washable. Simply unplug it from the wall and detach the cable from the electric blanket itself, then toss it in the washing machine for a clean wash. The detachable controller and removable cables make maintenance really easy. Just make sure to follow the user manual for specific washing instructions to keep your blanket in top condition.

How many temperature settings does it have?

The Giselle electric blanket offers nine different temperature levels, so you can find the perfect warmth for your needs. The maximum temperature reaches between 45°C and 55°C. You control all of this through the detachable LED display controller, which comes with two remote controls so both you and your partner can adjust the temperature independently if needed.

What size is this blanket and will it fit my queen bed properly?

This is a fully fitted Queen Size electric blanket with dimensions of 203cm x 152cm and a fitted depth of 40cm. This means it's designed to fit snugly on a standard Australian queen bed, including under your mattress with that 40cm depth. It's not just a throw blanket—it's a proper fitted sheet-style electric blanket that stays in place all night.

Does it have a timer, and what happens if I forget to turn it off?

Yes, it has a built-in timer that lets you set the operation time from one to twelve hours. This is really handy if you want it to warm up your bed before you get in, or if you like it running through the night. Even better, if you do forget to turn it off, the blanket has automatic shut-off protection, so it will switch off automatically. There's also overheat protection to prevent any safety issues.

What's the warranty and return policy if I'm not happy with it?

The Giselle Bedding Electric Blanket comes with a 1-year manufacturer's warranty, so you're covered if anything goes wrong with the product. If you purchase from Yarra Supply, you also get the peace of mind of their 30-day returns policy, which gives you plenty of time to try it out and make sure it's right for you. If it's not what you were hoping for, you can return it within 30 days.

How much power does this electric blanket use?

The blanket uses 140W of power total (that's two 70W heating elements). This is relatively efficient for a queen-sized electric blanket, so it won't spike your power bills dramatically. The power consumption will vary depending on which of the nine temperature settings you're using—lower settings will use less electricity than the maximum heat setting.
