I love this blanket so much, for so many reasons. It feels durable, sturdy, and well-made, but it felt nice and soft right out of the package. The waffle weave makes the blanket feel light and airy so that it’s still comfortable to use on warm summer nights, but it keeps me warm when the nights cool down or I’m getting chilled by the air conditioning. I have the twin size & it folds up into a relatively compact little bundle. Literally my ONLY complaint about this blanket is that I ordered the “purple” one because purple is my favorite color, and the blanket I received is not purple. What arrived is what you see in the photo, which is definitely not purple — it’s much more of a muted pink/dusty rose color. I don’t like pink, so I thought about returning it & ordering a different color. But I had been so eager to get the blanket that I figured I would just keep it. I’m glad I did, because it’s my favorite blanket of all time, despite the color. I highly recommend this blanket as one that you could use year round. BUT don’t order the purple blanket if you really have your heart set on something that’s actually purple (or even lavender), because you will be disappointed. Although this blanket has many awesome qualities, it is absolutely NOT purple.This cotton waffle blanket is much nicer than I'd hoped for--fabric has a good weight to it, it's attractive, and it isn't too thick or too thin! This is exactly the sort of layering blanket I wanted. I'll be purchasing another before winter comes--I hate wasting money on a high heating bill, so great quality blankets such as this are worth the investment!I love that it's pure cotton, the waffle print isn't as soft as brushed cotton but I really love my blanket. I use it as a throw and an extra blanket for the bed. Thank you very much. It was made with love.The purple color is great and it is lightweight which I wanted. It is not very soft. Maybe it will get softer the more it’s washed? I ordered a queen and a king size. It only has a couple inches of over hang. So for me, not large enough.I really want to love this blanket. Really I do. It's a great weight for summer time and very comfortable texture for me. The color is lovely too and hasn't faded at all after washing.However, it CANNOT be understated just how much lint comes off of this thing.I'm sincerely hoping it will shop shedding so much in a few more washes but it's honestly I don't have much of that hope at the moment. This one blanket --washed and dried by itself btw-- fills up the lint trap twice over every time I put it in the dryer. It's left a thin layer of blue lint on any clothes I wear in bed. It's gets in my curly hair enough that I see it come out in my brush even tho I wear a bonnet to bed.It is an atrocious amount of lint.Also since it's not prewashed, I did experience a decent amount of shrinkage. But I expected that from the beginning with a 100% cotton fabric. I sized up twice to a king size just to be sure I would have proper coverage after it's been dried.Bought for my mom. Reminds me of blankets we had when I was young.This blanket is perfect for folks who get hot when they sleep. It’s warm but not too hot.It was missing stitches in a few spots, creating minor holes.I use this over the foot of the bed and I fold it over. It's warm when it's doubled. The waffle is bigger so it has a lot of texture. Felt like there was a chemical softener on it - so definitely wash it before using.I love that this blanket is 100% cotton, but it was a pain to wash/dry. It shed so much after being in the dryer on delicate for the instructed 10 minutes… I had to take a lint roller to it and vacuum after and it is still shedding. Now that I have washed it it can’t be returned, even though they instruct you to wash it before use.Edit: it’s been several months since my initial purchase, and the blanket is still shedding after several washes following the instructions. I am so disappointed because I was looking for a light weight blanket for the summer.El color es justo el que quería, la textura es muy buena porque no es muy delgada pero sí transpirable como se ofrece, lo mejor es que es algodón. El tamaño quedo muy bien a mi cama tamaño Queen. La uso como colcha y también funciona como cobertor sin ser calurosa. Lo único malo es que es tan linda la textura que mis gatitas han comenzado a hacer de las suyas! Lo recomiendo ampliamente.Arrivée en avance. Acheté de grandeur queen et de couleur grise. Un peu déçue car c'est plutôt couleur beige/gris. J'ai un lit double et cette couverture va parfaitement dessus, cependant un peu juste pour la longueur. Le coton est tissé serré et un peu rugeux pour du 100% coton malgré les lavages et l'assouplisseur. Bref, ce n'est pas un coup de coeur mais elle fait la job.Realmente linda fresca yo vivo en un zona calurosa, pero cometí el error de ponerla a lavar y le dejé caer jabón líquido directamente y se decoloro yo uso el persil, admito fue mi error volveré a comprar mas
