Barbara Lavoie: Every household should have at least one emergencies-blackouts, etc. Great for car travel too. Very, very warm. I haven't washed mine yet-follow washing directions, like no dryer, etc or could lose most of blanket in dryer. Buy one now. Winters here. You won't regret this vital purchase. Survival.

Rebecca B: This wool blanket is dense, warm, and holds up well to outdoor elements- so it's a great choice for camping, keeping as a just-in-case blanket for the car, or even in place of a duvet. I've used it both outside and inside, and it really holds up well against the sun, water (when I forget it outside during a storm), and cold/windy days. It doesn't hold smells long, at least as far as I've seen, but I do air it outside a lot. Not the softest wool blanket, but it has softened more after several months of use, and it's a great quality for the price.

While I've used it myself in order to fully review it, I actually purchased this for my cats. They absolutely LOVE this wool blanket. As soon as I put it down they're all over it. They use it as a bed, play with it like a toy, and climb across like spider monkeys or do zoomies through it when it's draped over something. I also used it as a crate cover and it works great since it big and heavier than a typical blanket, making it easy to place over the crate without too much sliding. As a crate cover it blocked out pretty much all light (I bought a darker color), so the cats can have a nice dark area for sleeping/hiding.

Tony: I really like the quality of the wool blanket but.... it has a really funky smell. It smells like burnt rubber or something. I have just tried spraying it with Febreeze and it seems a bit better. Other than that scent I would have rated this blanket as 5 Stars. That smell is a real mind bender!

imre nemeth: It smells like real wool and it is exactly what I was looking for. Too many companies destroy their own wool products by stripping it from its own natural lanolin. Thankfully this blanket is well made and has that natural wool smell and feel to it. If you don't know wool, just follow the care instructions. No washing machine and no dryer. Hand wash only and hang to dry...,but you don't have to. It is enough to air it out in the summer. The sun will sanitize it and the wool blanket is self cleaning. It can go for years without washing and will last a lifetime if handled properly.

Anthony Angelis: This is a great wool blanket. A lot bigger than I expected which is great. Perfect for an emergency blanket In your car for the winter, or it adds a lot of extra warmth on top of the bed. It’s pre-washed several times so it’s got a soft, feel right out of the package

mitchell nichols: Some of the bad reviews I've read about this blanket and the Arcturus company are from people that put them in the washing machine and / or dryer then complained about the fuzz filling their lint traps. Do not do this! Wash it by hand and let it air dry on a clothesline. READ the label. The blanket has a wooly smell when you get it, but guess what?? It's a wool blanket.The smell dissipates over time. Very nice blanket for the price and is very warm and heavy. It's also long enough and you don't have to fight to keep your feet under it. I've bought 2 from Amazon and might buy more for emergency winter power outages. The only drawback is that it takes a long time to air dry unless it's breezy and not humid. Take care of these and I believe they'll last for years if not decades. Absolutely no complaints here. I would recommend to anyone wanting a warm, long, cheap, heavy, wool blanket. Anyone that has the time and patience to wash and dry it correctly, that is.

LivingandlearningLivingandlearning: Let’s compare the two blankets that I received to the description:

80% Wool (Seems true - lots of shedding as proof.)

HEAVY AND WARM - The Arcturus wool blanket weighs 4.8 lbs, with a density of 600 GSM (that means nice and thick). This blanket will keep you warm, period. (I would not describe it has thick. I have a thick wool blanket for comparison. I describe this as medium thickness. I layer a cotton polyester soft sheet that touches my skin then the wool blanket on top and it’s cozy warm. When camping I recommend using a similar lightweight sleeping bag liner also sold on Amazon or even a genuine silk liner. I purchased wool because when wool is wet, it’s still warm.)

GREAT LOOKING, LONG LASTING - Loom-woven and hemmed on all sides with contrast lock stitching, our blanket looks right at home in the field or on your couch, while standing up to rugged use and abuse. (Mostly true. The stitching on all sides looks nice. The blanket is still shedding so I’m unsure how long it will last. I’ve washed it several times with and dried with a gas dryer and the blank is still shedding more than expected. I’m sure there is a secret to stop the shedding. I...
