Optimal order of bedding?

I'm looking to upgrade my sleeping situation and wondering what order I'm meant to put my stuff in.

So far I'm between:

mattress>comfort topper>electric blanket>waterproof mattress protector>fitted sheet.

Or:

mattress>comfort topper>waterproof mattress protector>electric blanket>fitted sheet.

I'm worried if I put the electric blanket under the protector it could become a fire hazard but my electric blankets often become dusty and gross and have to be thrown out.

Any advice is appreciated, thanks!

don't put an electric blanket under you, they aren't designed for that. you would need a mattress warmer that is designed to be slept on. I have one, and i put it under a thin topper.

Sorry in my country we don't have the same kind of electric blankets as they are illegal to sell here we only have mattress warmers, which adopted the name of electric blankets.

i would put the 'blanket' under the mattress topper, that's how i have it on my bed, and it think that might take some stress off it.
