Doesn't drape over the sides as picture shows
We use these blankets in our Bed and Breakfast and have done so for 10+ years. We love how they last. Only complaint is how little extra fabric is on the sides. It does not look like the pictures show. If you and your partner fight over blankets, buy one size up. For example, a king bed is 76 inches wide while this king blanket is only 90, leaving a mere 7 inches per side.

Perfect for hot sleepers with temps in the 50F-75F range!
I've been using this blanket for just over a week now and have enjoyed it since first opening it.I sleep hot, so the most important thing I was looking for was a lightweight blanket that would breathe. My main comforter is a "Natural Comfort" all seasons fill and is much too hot and unbreathable when the window's closed in a 73F house at night. There's another blanket on Pacific Down that's very similar but it was triple the price, so I decided to give this a chance to try it out before upgrading to a higher quality blanket in the future.Since I'm obsessed with temperature, here's an idea of the settings I've been using the blanket in so far:-Warm outside (~75F+) window shut. ~71-74F in the house with a tiny fan on.-Colder (nice) outside, ~50F, window open. House at 71-74, fan on again.Here are some of my thoughts:PROS:-It -is- comfy! It's decently soft and feels good to sleep under.-It keeps me, who's very sensitive about my sleeping temperature, at a good warmth/coolness during the night even with the window shut!-It breathes. I haven't woken up in the middle of the night feeling too hot at all since we bought this, when previously I couldn't get a decent night of sleep for weeks due to being too hot.-The sateen edges feel great!-Has been comfortable to sleep with (without any other sheets/etc) in temperatures ranging from the low 50F's to mid 70F's!CONS:-Not much of a problem, but it's not as white as it shows in the photo. I picked the ivory option and instead of looking a nice grayish off-white color, it's got a much stronger yellow look and is a bit more matte instead of shiny, which makes it look a little dingy. But it was only 30 bucks, so I don't mind. I don't think it's as pretty as it was in the picture but it's a good blanket to try out before upgrading to a high quality expensive version.-As the temperature sank below 50 the other night, I woke up to take a drink and noticed that I was a bit too cold. It wasn't cold enough to wake me, but the blanket may not be able to keep one warm enough in temperatures 40F and below, which is normal from a lightweight blanket. Once the temperatures are consistently below 50 at night then I'll bring back out my old Natural Comfort all seasons fill comforter.-The main part of the blanket (the middle, not the sateen edges) isn't as soft and luxurious as it looks. It's better than average but you can feel the subtle roughness of fabric when touching it. When you've got it on your body/sleeping with it then it's not noticeable, but running your fingers over it will confirm that it is indeed a $30 blanket.I'll be using this until it gets a bit too cold, when winter truly hits, then i'll switch back to the other comforter. I'd recommend this blanket to anyone who sleeps hot and wants something that'd normally cost 60 bucks at bed bath and beyond for half the price. I may buy a full-size for my boyfriend since he's taken a liking to it and has tried to steal it a few times!I'd say it's 5/5 for a relatively cheap blanket, met all of my expectations and surprised me with how well it worked!

Stitching is extremely poor quality
The aesthetics of this blanket are not misrepresented. The blanket is beautiful and the muted champagne gold color is fabulous but the stitching is aweful. The blanket is coming apart in three places and actually losing the cotton fill. I have not even washed it yet... very disappointed with the quality.

Great Lightweight Blanket
Upfront, I really like this blanket. The pink color isn’t overwhelming, the full/queen is very roomy, and it’s lightweight.I live in Wisconsin. It gets really, really cold in the winter so to stay warm both in and out of bed, it’s all about layering. I tend to sleep hot, and I can’t stand being pressed down on by heavy blankets in bed. This is very and definitely not a blanket that will keep you warm in low temperatures, nor is it marketed for that use. What it’s supposed to do, and does perfectly, is keep me warm when it’s roughly 70 to maybe 40 degrees. Mild temperatures for here, but probably cold to those people living in the southern United States.It’s weight is almost nonexistent making it my dream blanket for layering. Heading into our true winter season, I have a set of blankets on hand to add or subtract from my bed as needed. I will most definitely need them. I think it’s about 20 degrees out right now, sunny, and calm winds. I have this blanket on top of a thick fleece thermal blanket keeping me toasty warm. When the wind picks up, depending on it’s direction, I’ll put on another layer. When it gets bitter cold, my final layer is a true mid weight goose down comforter. Down comforters are much more expensive and take more care, so this will actually go over the down one to protect it from dust above and me being occasionally overheated below.My only issue is that the material is described as microfiber. I expected it to have a touch surface like microfiber sheets. It does not. It’s not completely the cold surface of shiny polyester, but also not peach soft. That said, I don’t have a better way to describe it either so that’s on me.Given the choice, I would buy it again 100% of the time and definitely recommend it to everyone.I have no affiliation or contact with this seller. This is an honest review from someone that ordered it at full price from Amazon.

Comfy Cozy
This is perfect for my full-size Murphy bed since there needs to be little to no fabric on the sides so it will close properly. I use this over a warm blanket, and my house guests have said they sleep cozy warm under it. My cat loves it and is napping on it right now.

Love this blanket!
I was looking for a nice blanket to go under our comforter to provide extra warmth during the winter. I was originally eyeing this blanket from PB but couldn't justify the $129 price tag for a king sized blanket. I ended up buying one on sale from Target for $30 that was plush and gave off a TON of lint - I'm talking I would wake up every day and have lint all over my pajamas then found it all over my other clothes. I was beginning to give up hope, then I found this blanket. We washed it before using and noticed some fraying on one side, but other than that, it has been great and exactly what I originally needed at a good price point! I like the material - nice and smooth and with the silky feeling around the edges. It feels cool to the touch at night, which is nice because I don't like to be super warm in the evenings. Doesn't give off lint, which is a huge plus!!! Happy with my purchase. I also don't think it'll be too heavy to be used year round.

Looks very pretty on, great size, matches description & photos.
I took a gamble on this as there were no reviews to advise me, and I usually read them first. So here is one to help others...I am very happy with my purchase. I bought the seafoam queen size blanket. It is a pretty mint colour, looks and feels like photo and description. The satin edging is well stitched, no dangling threads. The filling is evenly spread with stitching giving a quilted effect. It is a generous queen size. The thickness is just right for me as I get very warm in bed and even a one blanket doona is too hot. Otherwise I shall use in summer just as a bedspread. I think I got a bargain as the seafoam colour was reduced, don't know why, but a bonus for me. Overall, a very good buy.

Suave y comodo
El color cambia un poco pero aún así es muy lindo. Lo compre en venta flash y el precio mucho más bajo 300 pesos menos. Vale la pena.Es ligero pero cubre bien el frío y se adapta al calor.

Soft and cuddly very nice.
Wanted soft cozy. But not too warm as i i was purchasing this to accompany a grey fuzzy quilt set that i also purchased from amazon. This is more of a peachy pink but its still very pretty. The satin like trim is lovely. I attached photo. By a window to try to capture the truest picture I could in regards to the colour. I hope that helps. I think i will buy another one in a different colour.

Soft and lightweight
This is a nice soft and lightweight blanket.I wanted something warmer than a sheet but not as warm or as heavy as a comforterWith this you have the option to use alone or add a sheet if you need a little extra warmthIt's a nice bright white colour- lighter than it looks in the picture.The construction looks good- no flaws or issues with seams or stitchingI read a few reviews complaining that the satin edging is stiff- this isn't the case on the blanket I received.
