Using independent recommendations from the Mumsnet forums – the largest online network of UK parents – along with feedback from authentic consumer reviews, we whittled down a shortlist that only features products of the highest quality.

Thanks to the soft flannel fleece and warm sherpa lining, we found the Oodie was ultra cosy to wear. We loved how thick the material was, keeping us warm while working from home, and the pom pom drawstring neckline was a nice addition.

This wearable blanket is made from soft teddy fleece, featuring a foot pocket designed to keep your toes warm that also folds into a cushion for easy storage. Blankets with sleeves, also known as hooded blankets, are perfect for keeping you warm during autumn and winter.There's also a good choice of colours available (our favourite is the deep red), although there's not as much variety as you'd get with some other brands. We're disappointed that some retailers doesn't include the battery power pack needed to power up the heating element, though these can be found easily from several retailers. Blanket hoodies are a versatile garment for your wardrobe and they're perfect for lounging on the sofa, wearing after a gym session, taking on a camping trip or keeping the wind chill off at the beach. Warm, soft and super huggable, you’ll adore seeing your mini me sink into this oversized blanket hoodie.

It’s super soft with two easily accessible, giant pockets making it perfect for lazy days on the sofa. More of a poncho than a hoodie, this has short sleeves and open sides that can be popped together at a couple of points for a slightly snugglier fit. Cute ‘n’ cosy, this one looks so good you could probably wear it out of the house, and might even pass as an expensive throw when left on the sofa. Taking the warmth and cosiness of a traditional blanket hoodie and teaming it with the functionality of a heated gilet, this clever blanket hoodie features battery-operated heat pads on the front, back and shoulders for extra warmth.

However, it's not as thick as some other blanket hoodies, but reviewers report it's still warm – slip it on over the top of your best thermal underwear and you may not even need to turn the heating on at all!

Probably the biggest competitor to Oodie right now, Kuddly’s range of hoodie blankets have really grown in popularity over the past year, and they now claim to be the number one ranked oversized blanket hoodie in the UK. Our partnership with two finance providers allows us to help you spread the cost for up to 12 months. After a long day at work, there is no better feeling than getting comfy on the sofa wrapped up in one of our Snuddies. This hoodie is, of course, oversized, but not so big around the hood or sleeves that you can’t see, eat or type – we could comfortably wear this at our WFH desk or walking around the house without it getting in the way.Despite being more expensive than other blanket hoodies, many Mumsnet users wouldn’t be without their Oodie hooded blanket and feel it’s certainly worth the extra money.

Arguably the original and most famous, the word ‘Oodie’ is now synonymous with hooded blankets – we even found ourselves telling people that we were “testing out Oodies” when talking about this feature. If they are still chilly in bed, check out the best kids' hot water bottles for options to pre-warm their sheets. There's no doubt that Oodie reigns supreme when it comes to blanket hoodies, but their cosy designs don't come cheap (although our users swear they're worth the investment). With Percy Pig playfully featured on the hood, it would make a great gift, and it's as cosy and snug as it is fun.The oversized style has a cosy fit with elasticated cuffs and giant pockets, and it will keep your rug rats warm when they’re snuggling up with you on the sofa or reading a book in their bedroom. It was easy to clean in the washing machine on a gentle cycle too – just remember it's not safe for the tumble dryer, so you will need to wait for it to air dry.
