Electric blankets have been around for decades, but the over-the-knee variety has gained popularity for its practicality. Unlike traditional blankets that can be bulky and cumbersome, over-the-knee electric blankets provide a cocoon of warmth that allows for ease of movement while effectively covering the legs. This design makes them particularly useful for those who spend long hours sitting—whether working from home, enjoying a good book, or unwinding while watching their favorite series.
