Buyers who have already taken the plunge with the Glowmaster UK Electric Heated Blanket have been sharing favourable reviews on the Wowcher website. It’s worth noting that postage and package costs £6.99 per item, and buyers should allow up to three working days for standard delivery after redeeming the voucher.

One buyer said: “Great little blanket, use as instructed, after 30 minutes makes your bed comfortable and snug for the rest of the night.” Another added: “Great under blanket had it on a hour before bed the bed was lovely and warm a fab buy.”

One buyer found it wasn’t quite what they were expecting, noting: “A bit smaller than I thought but does the job – very satisfied.” Another happy shopper added: “Exceptional value for money and a lovely product, I use daily.”

On Trustpilot, Wowcher has been scored ‘Great’ at 4.2 out of 5 across 135,800 reviews so far. A five-star review said: “Great price, timing great for Christmas stocking fillers. The transaction was quick and easy.”

Most of the less-positive reviews concern delivery charges, as they are charged separately for each item. The reason for this is that Wowcher is a marketplace, and orders are fulfilled by individual vendors. An affected customer said: “Straightforward process, but postage added after sale, even though low cost was unexpected.”

Another happy shopper praised: “The experience with Wowcher is always fab. The app is so easy to use, the deals are fab, the discounts are truly amazing, and I’ve never had a problem from ordering through to delivery.”
