About this deal
Another option to consider is a heated product like the best heated throw or the best heated gilet. You will have to factor in the energy costs of these, but they're a great alternative to a blanket hoodie if you want extra warmth, and they will be significantly cheaper to run than cranking up the central heating. The verdict: The Oodie Overall rating: 4.5/5 They're soft, comfortable, and the extensive range of patterns is a huge selling point. However, they are very expensive, and there are cheaper alternatives out there. Some Oodie wearers have also found them a bit too bulky. If there's one must-have product that's risen up the ranks and claimed the title of Mumsnetter Obsession of the Year, it's the oh-so-comfy blanket hoodie. A combination of an oversized hoodie and a blanket you can wear, the best blanket hoodie will envelope you in warmth and keep you cosy even with the heating off. Oodie produce some of the best-rated blanket hoodies out there, but are they actually as good as social media would have you believe? We recruited two MNHQ testers who have tried and tested the Oodie to see what they really thought. So, grab a cuppa, get cosy and snuggled up with the best hot water bottle, and have a scroll through our guide to these hooded blankets to see if they're the right fit for your family... Are Oodies worth it? In a word: yes. Both of our testers were thrilled with their blanket hoodies, and it's a sentiment echoed on the Mumsnet forums, with one user even starting a thread called ' Oodie is life-changing'.
