Full/Queen Snuggle-Ready Throw Blanket | Durable Machine Washable Pet Friendly | All-Season Comfort | Layering Bed Sofa Blanket | Cozy Navy

Bought this blanket to use when camping out on the sofa looking at movies and ended up using full time on my king-size bed instead. It is super plush and warm to say it is so light weight and is listed as a King size throw. It didn't shed after several washings and still has the same intensity of color as when bought. If you are looking for a light weight year round comfortable throw / blanket that fits nicely on your bed and as a throw this one is well worth it. Definitely would buy again.

This blanket is great, soft, lightweight and warm.

I really like this blanket. It is soft and lightweight but will keep you warm. It washes and dries well, and seems sturdy.

I needed new bedding for our new king-size bed (upgraded from queen) and was very excited to find a Vellux blanket at a good price. In my experience, these are nice warm blankets and great quality. Wisconsin winters mean warmth is top priority in a blanket, not softness. I personally like a blanket with a little weight to it, but apparently that is contrary to the norm, as all the blankets seem to be advertised to be lightweight. By the time I make my bed, though, with sheets, two blankets, and a quilt, I have a bit of weight to make me comfortable, but not so much that my husband is uncomfortable.So there is one problem with this blanket, and it is very specific to a very specific kind of person. My husband has a strong aversion to cotton balls and anything with a similar texture. I have learned that this is not as rare a phobia as one might think. Fleece is always risky with him. Some fleece is soft enough that he never bats an eye, and some fleece has a texture that causes him to avoid it. And then there's this fleece. When I pulled the blanket out of the package, I immediately noted that it was an unusual texture, but I suspect it will soften with washing. However, we needed to get the bed made right then with no time for washing. When I started to unfold the blanket, I noticed how the fleece sticks to itself, almost like velcro, and even made a sound similar to what you hear when pulling velcro apart. When I finally had enough unstuck to toss to my husband (he was helping me make the bed), he grabbed it and immediately dropped it like it was a hot coal. The only way he could bring himself to touch that blanket was with gloves on. It probably sounds silly to some people, but if you or someone you know shares this aversion to cotton balls, you will completely understand what a big deal this is. I got lucky that this blanket is well-sandwiched between the sheet and a soft blanket, so once the bed is made, there is no reason for him to touch it. And I am hopeful that a wash or two will soften it enough to allow him to touch it without panic. For now, though, I am praying that the velcro quality of this blanket will keep it stuck to the other blanket well enough that it won't accidentally touch him in the middle of the night.Basics: Blanket is warm, fits bed okay - not nearly as much drape on sides as I would like, only about 4-5" on each side, and the length is such that there isn't a great amount to tuck in, so hopefully the top blanket (longer) will keep it tucked. Texture of blanket is unusual, definite concern for people who have aversion to cotton or other textural issues.

I love this blanket. It is a replacement for one that I had just like it, it lasted for years and years until it finally wore out. Always looks like new…never gets those fuzzy balls and keeps you warm

Ever since my mother first bought one of these for us decades ago I have loved these blankets like no other. They're thick without being heavy and very warming in layers with a duvet over them.I don't know why people are mentioning a smell. There is no smell. But then the first thing I do with these is wash and dry them. On that first wash and dry there's a bit of fluff that comes off in the dryer filter, and presumably whatever smells people are mentioning. After that they're soft, and even though I generally live a life of luxury in most things around me, I really can't stand heavy blankets or things feeling weighted down on my feet while in bed, and these are my favorite.Absolutely perfect.I would have preferred plain white, but I'll settle for Ivory since they don't seem to make it.From years of experience I know these will last for years.I replaced an older one in the green color because I prefer more neutral colors, but that blanket is still going. When you wash and dry it and fold it it's fairly thick and makes a fantastic place (when folded) for the cat to sleep in comfort. He loves it, and the blanket isn't so precious or expensive that I can't take it out in the garden and put it on my teak bench so he can lay on it outside. He loves it there too.Highly recommended, and like all things manufactured, I would definitely encourage anyone to wash and dry before using to remove any trace of chemicals (and odor) involved in the production process.

friend of mine absolutely loves this blanket! I recently got this for him for his birthday and I must say, the color is even better than what is pictured, in my opinion, it's more of a softer shade of blue. The only downside was I had to wash it twice because of a strong chemical odor that was present. These blankets are extremely soft and very warm, I grew up using these blankets and if you take good care of them they do last for a number of years. I do not dry them in the dryer, I hang them on the clothesline inside our basement, if you have to use a dryer, please dry them on a gentle cycle!
