It's okay, I suppose.
These blankets do not keep you warm. I tried insulating a small space on all sides with it, using it as a blanket, using it under you as a sleeping pad, and layering it between blankets and inside of a coat. This doesn't have and heat reflection properties. It's just a thin piece of metal/plastic hybrid that doesn't do anything except prevent water from passing through. That being said, using it to sleep with is a surefire way to wake up soaking wet. The camouflage pattern on the reverse side has a metallic shine as well, making it useless in any camouflage applications. To add icing to the cake, it rips as easily, if not easier, than tin foil. The unfolded size of one blanket is a little more than enough to cover a twin size bed. Additionally, using this blanket is the sound equivalent of ripping a sheet of paper. If you're a light sleeper, there's probably no way you'll be able to sleep through the night using this. Though, you'll be freezing anyway because you might as well be sleeping underneath a piece of Saran Wrap. This is not an emergency blanket. The best use would be a small waterproof tarp, if you could get it strung up without ripping. Would not buy again, but would still recommend to an enemy.
