The blanket warms in the highest level (Level 9) very well by at least 30 minutes. So really warm and pleasant hot (for me as a Southerner :-)) it is unfortunately only for about 2-3 hours. The phased plan to make my opinion does not make sense, because you always have to make on it anyway at level 9, so that the ceiling is reasonably warm at least for 30 minutes.. This applies to both zones (foot & Körprzonen). The division into 2 zones also makes no sense, because usually you do not have warm feet and cold upper body, and if the feet are cold, freezes usually also equal to the entire body. Therefore, these 2 areas are more likely to be regarded as a publicity stunt;) Since I previously had a more favorable thermal blanket with "only" 3 steps, I hoped with this ceiling to achieve more heat with further steps. But even here, the stunt should not miss its effect. So briefly brought to the point: stage 9 when this ceiling is like 100% of Stage 3 in conventional or other ceiling! The steps 1-8 I only untested - why? The lukewarm will maybe not even after 12 hours :-) Please do not get me wrong, I am generally satisfied, because after all, this blanket is better than to put me in a completely cold corpses bed and I generally HATE cold! Also I wished 10-20 cm more length. And I say that is only 1,75 m tall. I just do not understand why the manufacturer so extremely stingy always with the length of the ceiling ????? It was here on Amazon so far only a producer who has sold times a decent length (1.90 meters !!!!) but these ceilings, of course, sold out quickly, and that cost only half of this ceiling! I can not really believe that a man who is about 1,80 m with this ceiling will be happy unless he huddled in bed and is hoping to fall asleep so. Love manufacturer you come from the land of dwarves, hobbits and goblins or why these cute short ceiling ????? I'm sure the manufacturer would have for the same price can spendieren still at least 10 cm more heating wires or more ceiling without having to go straight to financial ruin or bankruptcy.
