Customer feedback
While there are no reviews on Yimbly yet, the Livivo Premium Sherpa Heated Throw holds a 3.3-star rating on Amazon. One shopper said: "Bought as a Christmas gift for my teenage daughter and she loves it! She has to turn it off after about an hour as she gets too hot as it warms up very quickly."
Another customer, Paul, commented: "Nice warm heated throw, easy to use, doesn’t seem to have a noticeable impact on the electric bill. Ample size, good thick quality fleece." A reviewer named Chris added: "I’m really pleased with this LIVIVO electric blanket and would definitely recommend it. It’s lovely to get into a nice warm bed, especially now the colder evenings are setting in."
However, one customer reported a fault, writing: "Lovely soft blanket with great heat but it stopped working after about a week with the control making a rattling sound which I’m guessing something popped inside. Got a full refund." Another reviewer, JC, noted: "This throw/blanket is just about big enough for two people to use on the sofa, or one person to completely snuggle in an armchair. It is very soft, the material is reasonable lightweight. But you do feel the heating elements."
The Livivo Premium Sherpa Heated Throw remains available at Yimbly with the AUTUMN10 code, offering a way to stay warm while potentially reducing reliance on central heating.
