Velvety on the front, soft Sherpa (not wool, I hate how scratchy wool is!) on the back, and a clearance price. All good. It’s not so much like a comforter as it is like a two layer quilt, and I’m guessing there is some batting in between but I’m not sure. It’s like a light weight soft blanket sewn on to a very soft medium weight blanket. It is sewn all the way through, which was a concern after experiencing a similar product a long time ago that was only sewn together on the ends; the peripheral and not in the middle at all.
It’s May 1 here in the North, and still running daytime temps in the 50’s, so this will be nice. Anything above 60’s at night, probably not so nice. I expect it’ll be all I need come winter as well. Had I seen this at a local store and at this price, I would have snapped it right up.
Oh, and so glad I purchased the correct size for my bed. Folks were saying get a size larger. But I have a bed in a box mattress (love!) that is 10” tall along with a 2” latex foam topper, and with the bed against the wall on one side. I would have had a constant struggle keeping this on the bed if it were any larger! I dislike blankets that hang down and even touch the floor at times while sleeping. I have vinyl plank flooring and dogs, so you never know where that floor has been (I like my blankets especially clean). So, just something else to consider…whether you want the floor to be stealing your blanket at night!
