Some people, though, think of more practical ways to stay warm at home. They think about things like buying an electric underblanket and what features to prioritize when shopping for one. It’s an important consideration to make, since there are numerous options for electric blankets available out there, all with different designs and features. With that said, here here are five of the most important features of an electric underblanket that you need to look for.   **1. Dual heating zones** When it comes to electric underblankets, having dual heating zones is always better. Different parts of the body respond in different ways to the cold, so look for electric underblankets with two heating zones in separate areas of the underblanket. This provides a number of benefits including: - Added warmth for people with feet that get extra cold at night - Spreads warmth evenly throughout the underblanket and eliminates cold spots - Makes it suitable for two people **2. Well designed heating system** In addition to dual heating zones, your electric underblanket should have a well-designed system with these ergonomic features: - Heating zones with separate controls for individual temperature adjustments - Various temperature settings for manual warmth control - Energy efficiency Keep in mind that the aforementioned features are not all that you should consider. However, they are a good indication that you are getting a quality product.   **3. Rapid heating** An electric underblanket that takes a few minutes to heat up won’t be that useful, especially during cold winter nights when you just want to get under the blanket, get warm, and sleep. This is why you need an electric underblanket with turbo-heating or pre-heating capabilities. They warm up almost instantly for a faster, better, and more comfortable sleep.   **4. Easy-to-operate controls** An electric underblanket won’t do you any good if you can’t make it work, so make sure the one you purchase has user-friendly controls. When you’re out shopping for electric underblankets, test them out first. Find the one with controls that are easy to operate, and preferably one with a detachable controller so that you don’t have to worry about wires when sleeping.   **5. Timer** The timer is an important function in an electric underblanket because it ensures not only your comfort, but your safety as well. With a timer, you don’t have to go through the hassle of waking up in the middle of the night just to turn off the blanket’s heating element. It automatically shuts off the heating system and prevents the electric underblanket from overheating, thereby eliminating any health or [electrical hazard](http://www.hse.gov.uk/toolbox/electrical.htm).   Prepare for the winter season and keep warm with Wellcare’s electric underblankets, which are equipped with the 4D Dynamic Warmth Flow (4D DWF) system.
