Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I live in Montana. Winter is definitely the predominant season here.. When I got wind that wearable blankets were actually a thing, I started my search for the right one. I found several that looked promising and had to make a crucial decision: go with a cuter poncho style blanket dress, or become a walking blanket.. Even though I would usually go with a poncho type wrap, this one held my attention with its cuffed sleeves, deep hood and overall length. I ultimately chose this one because I felt that it would be warmer, and while a flattering shape was sacrificed, warmth and coziness definitely weren’t! So for me, ( being 5’7 ) this hits a little above the ankles. I can walk in it without tripping and while this thing SWIMS around me, it surprisingly doesn’t get in the way of doing things. That brings me to my next point, The sleeves have a sweatshirt style cuff that keeps the bulk of the arm fabric out of your way if you’re pouring a cup of coffee or sticking a log on the fire. The hood is very deep and can easily be pulled over the eyes for a cozy nap experience, and the fabric is undoubtably plush.. But with that GORGEOUSLY soft plushness comes my only con: this thing sheds. As soon as I opened it, I could tell it was going to shed. I Immediately threw it in the wash, ( cool, delicate ) tumble dried low, used a soft bristle brush to go over the whole thing and then took a lint roller to it! Yes, I brushed and lint rolled it! My husband cracked a few funnies while I was in the process… But let me tell you, it’s worth it! This thing doesn’t shed anymore and is my absolute favorite thing to throw on when The house is FREEZING in the morning or When I’m cuddling up on the couch with a good book. My husband has even threatened to steal it from me on several occasions. All in all, I highly recommend treating yourself or a loved one to this! A very thoughtful gift, regardless of gender.
