Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This was to be used as a spare blanket for guests. When it arrived, it was stiff with some sort of waxy residue and smelled like cigarettes and cigars. I washed it gently in cold as per the label instructions, and when I went to pu it into the drier, I noted that one side, which had been loosely stitched, had begun to unravel. After a round of gentle low heat drying, there was fiber everywhere. Not only did it fill the lint trap, but it spilled onto the floor of the laundry room and then into the kitchen. I’ve been picking up fuzzy blots for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, the weave of the blanket has become thinner or more apparent. After a single wash. I have no confidence in the longevity of this item.
