You would be better off buying a down blanket to keep you warm at night. They come in various thicknesses, so make sure you get a nice one.
I don't think you will ever find an electric blanket that last forever. By it's very nature (being electronic) it will eventually break. If you must buy one, I would stick with a Sunbeam. I prefer a mattress pad over a blanket since heat rises and the shock of a cold mattress sucks.
Some people still use the hot water bottles/bladders. I imagine they last a very long time.
They aren't cheap, but a good one will last you a long time and save you a bundle.
I actually recommend a heated mattress pad versus a blanket, because the heat will rise through and warm your sheets but get trapped by your comforter - keeping the heat next to you. I have the queen size version of this one and it is amazing. It helped me survive winter at school when we had the thermostat at 58 almost all the time. It makes enough heat that just sitting in bed was really comfy, so I would end up doing all of my homework in bed.
I moved up from the south 2 years ago and had the same questions for /r/boston
In typical fashion.......they did the same thing they are doing to you. Laughing, and being dicks instead of trying to help.
My place was old, the heaters were not working, and their were leaking windows everywhere. I bought this
Caulking Cord
and
window kit
and
Heater
I very legally could have gone to the housing authority and reported my landlord for the lack of adequate heating (and broken radiators) but decided that this stuff worked just fine. First winter I couldn't get the house above 62, and some rooms I am sure were much colder. The electric and gas bill was insane.
Second year we just don't even bother using the radiators at all, we use the space heater, a heating blanket, and sealed all the windows and doors (balcony) with that caulk. The house was still cold, but we were warm. This seems to be a common tactic up here, heat yourself not the house.
I also looked into buying one of these bed heater, but I don't want to sweat in the middle of the night and the bedroom is pretty easy to heat with that space heater.
Good luck. Also, most people up here can be dicks when it comes to heating/cold complaints. Just sit back and laugh at what these people call a severe thunderstorm, most of them would shit their pants if they ever experienced a regular summer storm in the south.
