friend of mine absolutely loves this blanket! I recently got this for him for his birthday and I must say, the color is even better than what is pictured, in my opinion, it's more of a softer shade of blue. The only downside was I had to wash it twice because of a strong chemical odor that was present. These blankets are extremely soft and very warm, I grew up using these blankets and if you take good care of them they do last for a number of years. I do not dry them in the dryer, I hang them on the clothesline inside our basement, if you have to use a dryer, please dry them on a gentle cycle!

I bought two of these Vellux original blankets to be given to homeless men. I washed the blankets and repackaged them, taking care to observe how they were originally folded so they would fit back into the plastic zipper bag they arrived in. I read reviews that complained about the blankets "coming apart," leaving a large amount of lint in the washer and dryer, etc., but these blankets washed perfectly, one at a time, in cold water in a large capacity home washer (an old one -- not the newer HE), and left NO lint. The dryer lint filter had only the normal amount of lint one would see after washing towels, for example. The blankets were soft after washing not stiff as some reviewers stated. I can't say about warmth since I did not use them, but they appeared to be warm and other Vellux-type blankets I have used in the past are warm yet lightweight.

Love this light-weight vellux blanket. Perfect for when temps drop below freezing. We throw ours over our bedspread on those super cold nights. If you get too warm while sleeping, its easy to remove. Easy to wash, too. Our last Vellux blanket was over a decade old and you literally could see thru it, so we decided to finally replace. Great price for a king size and would highly recommend this Vellux blanket.

I needed new bedding for our new king-size bed (upgraded from queen) and was very excited to find a Vellux blanket at a good price. In my experience, these are nice warm blankets and great quality. Wisconsin winters mean warmth is top priority in a blanket, not softness. I personally like a blanket with a little weight to it, but apparently that is contrary to the norm, as all the blankets seem to be advertised to be lightweight. By the time I make my bed, though, with sheets, two blankets, and a quilt, I have a bit of weight to make me comfortable, but not so much that my husband is uncomfortable.So there is one problem with this blanket, and it is very specific to a very specific kind of person. My husband has a strong aversion to cotton balls and anything with a similar texture. I have learned that this is not as rare a phobia as one might think. Fleece is always risky with him. Some fleece is soft enough that he never bats an eye, and some fleece has a texture that causes him to avoid it. And then there's this fleece. When I pulled the blanket out of the package, I immediately noted that it was an unusual texture, but I suspect it will soften with washing. However, we needed to get the bed made right then with no time for washing. When I started to unfold the blanket, I noticed how the fleece sticks to itself, almost like velcro, and even made a sound similar to what you hear when pulling velcro apart. When I finally had enough unstuck to toss to my husband (he was helping me make the bed), he grabbed it and immediately dropped it like it was a hot coal. The only way he could bring himself to touch that blanket was with gloves on. It probably sounds silly to some people, but if you or someone you know shares this aversion to cotton balls, you will completely understand what a big deal this is. I got lucky that this blanket is well-sandwiched between the sheet and a soft blanket, so once the bed is made, there is no reason for him to touch it. And I am hopeful that a wash or two will soften it enough to allow him to touch it without panic. For now, though, I am praying that the velcro quality of this blanket will keep it stuck to the other blanket well enough that it won't accidentally touch him in the middle of the night.Basics: Blanket is warm, fits bed okay - not nearly as much drape on sides as I would like, only about 4-5" on each side, and the length is such that there isn't a great amount to tuck in, so hopefully the top blanket (longer) will keep it tucked. Texture of blanket is unusual, definite concern for people who have aversion to cotton or other textural issues.

i have used these for years , got hooked on the light weight and comfort of them ,they are warm in winter and don't over heat you in summer , VELLUX is the only brand i ever bought so i don't know about the others , ,, it s not like a cozy or throw blanket , its does not shed or wrinkle , , just be careful on washing,, , gentle cycle and gentle dry , you will be surprised at your sleep when you don't wake ups sweating from a heavy comforter or chilled with a normal sheet ,,i still have a comforter for looks but fold it back and sleep under VELLUX ,i met a person who was burned in a fire and he said because of burns they are perfect not heavy not to light and his sleep was great ..my first was at a hotel 30 years ago and since then bought my own and love them ,, not everyones sleep habits are the same , so judge for yourself , also i always rinse and dry before using but thats me hope this helps and no i dont do this for adds this is my personal option on something that i like

Bought 2 ivory Original Vellux blankets in King size. They look great and are everything they say they are - very light weight, yet warm enough. after receiving them, I washed and dried them on delicate and had no problem with balling or shredding. Blanket came out perfectly. Past experience has taught me that over time these blankets get stiff and kind of crunchy so they won’t last a lifetime. But the price I paid on Amazon, at around $CAD 69.00, makes it worth it to have such lightweight and comfortable blankets for our beds. This price is significantly cheaper than I found it at other retailers.
