Dangerous
I have to guve 1 star in order to leave a review otherwise I wouldn’t even give this 1 star. I had SEVERAL email exchanges with Customer Service about the control not linking up to my wifi and they came to the conclusion that my control box was bad. They said many of the boxes were bad had this problem & to be replaced. My blanket was a gift and I had no receipt so they wouldn’t replace mine. So that I could use it I had to use manually. Problem with that is it gets blazing hot! I feel asleep and it got under my leg & it actually woke me up not because too warm but it blistered my leg! As thinking well that’s my error I should only use while awake and can turn off as it got too hot, you see there is no way to adjust it’s all or nothing. Well today when I went to turn it down the contril box felt very hot I took a closer look and the box had started melting! God forbid if I wasn’t there to turn down before it melted on my couch or caught fire. Stay very far away from this product

WiFi doesn’t stay connected
It was a little frustrating to connect to WiFi because the directions are confusing but I got it done. I was able to turn it on from my phone ONE time. After that it says “no internet connection” and I have to reset every time I want to use it. There is no option in the app to attempt to connect again or reset or anything. The app has no options to do ANYTHING. I can manually turn it on but I can’t change any settings because the app or blanket won’t stay connected to internet (yes my phone is connected to my WiFi)

Useless app
Setup took 3 minutes and was able to turn on the heated blanket quickly. I found it odd that you can’t control both sides of the blanket at the same time. You have to set the heat setting and time for each side separately.
I was still hopeful but the awful rating of this app showed its true colors as soon as I tried to turn the blanket off. As soon as you open app, the product says “No Internet Connection” and the only way to make it work is to delete the product and reinstall it. Each time you want to use the app! As I said, useless.
The blanket will turn on without the app, however you can’t control the heating setting or time without the app. So I’m returning the product and thankfully deleting the app. It’s sad that you can’t research these things before buying. RH sleep isn’t listed anywhere on the box of the product.

Not user friendly but functional and convenient.
Bought my blanket at a discount store, determined to make it work. There is little to no instruction in the app but if you’ve connected any “smart” device before you can navigate it no problem.
If you run into issues there are step by step instructions from other reviewers. Four starts because the app should give clear instructions and help if needed but five star product and five star convenience.

THROW THE WHOLE PROCESS AWAY
Throw it all away. It’s a waste of time, money and effort. The blanket won’t even work without the app and the app won’t even work. The blanket stay on the middle light and can’t be adjusted or switched. The middle light doesn’t even get warm. It’s all just a total waste. I don’t even understand how this blanket is still on any shelf or in any store. The app is trash and so is the thin blanket that leaves white fuzzies all over your clothes and hair.

So difficult to connect.
First off having to hold the button WHILE you connect it to the outlet…why? Second it won’t work on a 5G network. So if you’re wondering why it keeps saying it can’t connect after you put in the password, that’s why. Sadly I have to use it one setting and turn it off once I’m sweating. Can’t turn it down since apparently there’s an entire box which could have easily accommodated manual setting. But that just makes too much sense.

Do Not Buy
I agree with Return Immediately because that’s exactly what I’m doing. I had the same experience and am so sorry I bought such a terrible thing.
Does NOT Connect to WiFi
The app does not recognize the Wi-Fi connection! After MULTIPLE attempts it continues to to fail to pair!
READ THIS: Save some frustration Eddie Bauer Throw
This is not the greatest app or blanket as far as connecting capability; it is a very frustrating process if you don’t know how to find the blanket’s wifi. Before you plug in the blanket, go through the process of connecting to your home wifi network, when you plug the blanket/throw in, hold down the power button on the “connection box” once plugged in after 5 seconds release the button and the blue light will begin flashing, when that happens, go into your phone’s wifi settings and the device’s signs address will appear. It cannot connect to a 5ghz network it has to be 2.4 once connected return to the app and complete the set up, when it prompts you to enter your wifi password again, make sure you are connected to your home connection. From there it will connect with the internet and ‘access’ cloud, once that starts loading, you may need to wait a couple minutes before it fully connects. Hopefully this helps; it drove me crazy trying to figure it out. The instructions with the throw are garbage and really miss a lot of the important (okay all of the important) directions for connecting.
Good luck! Once it connects it’s actually a pretty decent app/throw. It really is the blanket that makes the app frustrating.

Total crap
Have a heated blanket I’m ‘supposed’ to be able to control through my phone. Guess what? Garbage! Can I rate this app a negative 5?
RHSleep
Whoever wrote this app, obviously, does not use the app for their own warming blanket. The app for not get passed “no internet, how to connect to wi-fi”.
Money not well spent
It’s just like all of the other reviewers said…this app is horrible! I followed the instructions to a T and I still get an error message connecting to WiFi. My WiFi works just well and it keeps telling me to check my WiFi. Like the other person said it’s just good for plugging it in and turning it on.

Worst App EVER!!
I am 2 hours trying to get this to work! It’s a waste of my time my WIFI is strong and it’s not recognizing it at all. I’ve deleted the account and started over about 4 times. It’s a shame I’m packing it up to go back was going to order several for Christmas
Annoying
It was working fine but one day it just randomly logged me out of my account and I can’t control my blanket because I don’t see my password in my password thing for settings and the email already has an account so I can’t make a new one it’s a whole mess and I have no idea what happened this made me so mad

RETURN immediately
This app WILL NOT work, you won’t be able to get your Wi-Fi to recognize your product.
If you’re not prone to swearing, you will be if you decide to download this app thinking you are the ONE person that will get it to work. If you decide to download this app I would highly recommend getting the kids out of the house and taking a Xanax before you start trying to connect your product. Do yourself a favor, return it and buy one from anyone except RH Home or Eddie Bauer Home as they both use this useless, lesson in frustration of an app.

Will not connect!!!
We have tried everything to get this stupid app to connect to the blanket and have had no luck. You would think by now companies would have figured this out and not put a app or product on the market that doesn’t work.
Don’t waste your time
The blanket it not great but the app is even worse. If they could update the app to not time out and actually work to add the product it might be worth keeping.
Terrible
I’m having the same issues as everyone else! At least it turns on…..and off.
Litterally the worst ap I have ever downloaded- doesn’t do anything
This ap is absolute trash
Should be so simple and yet
I can’t even get the product name to show as I try to connect it.
It’s a gift and it turns on and off and it’s great but disappointed in the app.
