How to choose
App control versus a wired controller
Three of the four picks here answer this search with app control: the Sunbeam, the Eddie Bauer and the Beautyrest. The Sunbeam and the Beautyrest also include wired controllers, so you can adjust heat from the bed without a phone. The Serta uses its controller for heat settings and the auto shut off timer. Check the control type before you buy, since it decides how you change settings each night.
Heat settings and auto shut off
Heat settings decide how finely you can tune warmth: the Beautyrest has 20 settings and the Sunbeam has 10. The Serta sets heat through its controller, and the Eddie Bauer sets heat through its app or voice commands. Auto shut off timers run up to 10 hours on the Sunbeam and Beautyrest and up to 12 hours on the Serta. Pick a timer that covers your night, and match the setting count to how precise you want the warmth.
Size, weight and washing
Sizes here run from the 50 by 60 inch Eddie Bauer throw to the 100 by 90 inch Beautyrest King, with the Sunbeam Twin at 84 by 62 inches and the Serta Full at 84 by 77 inches. Stated weights are 4.3 lb for the Sunbeam, 5.1 lb for the Serta and 9.6 lb for the Beautyrest. All four picks are machine washable, so check the care instructions in the box before the first wash.
