Can I use an electric blanket with my down comforter?

Question

Or any other blankets for that matter? I have my down comforter in a duvet cover and am wondering if I should put the electric blanket between me and the down comforter or the down comforter is most effective being closest to your body so should I put other blankets on top of it?

Thanks

Answer 1

Yes, we have done it. But even on the lowest setting it gets way to warm for my comfort. However, if you like warm, then this is safe to do!

Answer 2

Wow - this will create some serious warmth.  The comforter insulates, the electric blanket generates heat.  So, keep the down comforter on top and the electric blanket trapped "inside" with you.

Answer 3

If your going to do this have a sheet & the electric blanket next to you and the down comforter on top, but I wouldn't think you need an electric blanket with a down conforter, they are warm by themselves.
