I've been using the BATTILO HOME throw blanket for a few weeks now, and it's quickly become my favorite home accessory. The rust orange color I chose is even more vibrant in person—it’s like having a slice of autumn draped over my couch. The photos online don’t do it justice!

The first thing I noticed was how soft it is. It’s like wrapping yourself in a cloud, but with just enough weight to feel cozy without being suffocating. I’ve used it for everything: curling up with a book on chilly evenings, tossing it over my legs while working from home, and even as a picnic blanket during a sunny afternoon in the park. It’s surprisingly versatile.

Some reviews mentioned shedding or loose threads, but I haven’t experienced that at all. The knit feels sturdy, and the tassels add a playful boho touch that elevates my otherwise plain sofa. It’s also held up well after washing—I followed the care instructions (gentle cycle, laundry bag), and it came out looking brand new. Pro tip: if you’re sensitive to smells, give it an extra wash with scented detergent (mine had a slight factory odor at first).

Is it the thickest blanket out there? No, but that’s what makes it perfect for year-round use. It’s lightweight enough for summer nights but still provides warmth when layered. My only gripe? Now everyone in my household keeps stealing it—guess I’ll need to order another one!
