These will keep you warm and help save your heating bill
It's that time of year again: The season of turning on the oven or cuddling your overheating laptop for warmth because it's just not worth it to turn the heat on in the whole house.
The average electric bill in U.S. households is just over $111 per month. That likely spikes during winter months — not just because of heat, but because many of us are spending more time at home while it's cold out. On top of rent, food, and gas or a subway pass, a lot of folks are giving up a comfortable temperature at home.
Instead of running the heat for hours on end to ensure coming home to a toasty house or slumber without shivering, we've pulled some cozy gadgets on sale that may suffice over cranking the thermostat: Shop personal heaters (including a Dyson), electric blankets, and heated mattress pads at Amazon and Walmart.
Dyson Hot + Cool Jet Focus Fan Heater (AM09) — $293.39 (save $156.60)
If you've been eyeing up Dyson's MoMA-worthy fans but haven't been able to justify the price, here's your chance: the Dyson Hot + Cool Jet Focus AM09 heater fan is $156.50 off on Amazon and still full price on Dyson's website. It uses patented Air Multiplier technology to project focused warm or cool air in the room, minus the blades or overheating vents that typically make these devices dangerous for children. It also uses a smart temperature to monitor the room and maintain your selected temperature to avoid wasted energy.
Regularly $449.99, you can save $156.60 and get it for $293.39 on Amazon. It's not in stock until later in January, but this is your chance to lock down the price.
Soleil Personal Ceramic Mini Heater — $8.44 (save $6.55)
There's no reason to not keep a little space heater on hand during the winter — especially for less than $9. This mini ceramic one resembles a retro radio and is perfect for personal heating on or under a desk, by a bed, or in a cubicle (after permission from the building, of course). Reviews mention that it's definitely as tiny as it looks, but is powerful enough for small rooms.
Regularly $14.99, you can save $6.55 and grab it for $8.44.
Sunbeam Heated Fleece Quilt — starting at $35.69 (save up to $14.61)
Sliding into a cool, airy bed is refreshing in the summer — cringeworthy in the winter. When you need more concentrated heat than a radiator can provide, this electric fleece quilt from Sunbeam creates a cozy nest via 10 heat settings. It also comes in seven colors to match the rest of your room's color scheme.
Regularly $3 $74.99, you can save up to $14.61 on sizes twin through queen.
Sunbeam Heated Mattress Pad — starting at $36.14 (save up to $23.61)
Forget inviting a Hinge date over just to keep from shivering — this heated mattress pad from Sunbeam provides a consistent heat from neck to toes. If you do have a partner to sleep with, there are dual controllers for each person to set their desired temperature (because there's always someone who thinks it's "hot in here"). It turns off by itself after 10 hours and can even go in the washing machine.
Regularly $49.99 to $71.14, you can save up to $23.61 on sizes twin through king.
