Absolutely! safety was our first priority when designing Hugsy. It uses low-voltage heating elements that stay within safe body-contact temperatures, and it automatically shuts off after 4 hours for peace of mind if you fall asleep. Built to the same safety standards as your household appliances so you can relax and stay warm without worry.

Not at all. Hugsy comes with a generous 3.5m cord long enough to move around your living room, work from your desk, cook in the kitchen, or stretch out on the couch without constantly unplugging. You’re warm and free to move.

Because battery-powered heated wearables lose power fast and don’t deliver real warmth. We tested both, and plug-in heating is significantly warmer and lasts as long as you need it. Unlimited warmth beats limited battery life every time and with a long cord that works with extension leads, you’ll still have the flexibility you need.

Exposure to cold temperatures causes peripheral vasoconstriction, which reduces blood flow to the feet & other body parts and can increase discomfort. Hugsy provides consistent, controlled warmth that helps counteract cold-induced vasoconstriction, supporting peripheral blood flow and reducing stiffness in colder environments. It is designed to improve thermal comfort during extended periods of sitting or low activity.

Yes! absolutely. We recommend using a grounded 3-prong indoor extension cord for safe use. With Hugsy’s 3.5m cord plus a standard extension, you’ll have plenty of range to move around comfortably whether you’re on the couch, at your desk, or in the kitchen.

Hugsy is designed in a relaxed, oversized fit that comfortably suits most adults & kids from approximately 150cm to 190cm and XS to 3XL. It’s intentionally roomy and cocoon-like, not tight or form-fitting. If it’s not the right fit for you, our guarantee has you covered.. easy returns, no stress.

Yes! and it’s simple. The controller disconnects in seconds, then you can machine wash on a gentle cold cycle and tumble dry on low. Clip the controller back on and you’re ready for your next cozy night. We recommend washing every 2–3 weeks with regular use.

Hugsy features 3 heating zones, each with low, medium, and high settings so you’re always in control. On high, it reaches up to 60°C, giving you that just-out-the-dryer warmth that wraps around your whole body. Most customers find medium (around 45°C) perfect for all-day comfort.

Fast. You’ll start feeling warmth within seconds of switching it on, and it reaches your selected temperature in about 30 seconds. No waiting. No shivering.

Hugsy isn’t just a blanket, it’s wearable warmth. You move freely while staying heated, and the 3-zone system prevents hot spots or uneven heating. Plus, it’s built to strict safety standards not cheaply made or “lightly tested.” This is premium warmth, designed to last.
