Let me start by saying this blanket is *ridiculously* soft. The moment I unfolded it, I wanted to bury my face in it—like hugging a cloud made of chenille. The curved stripes add a subtle chicness to my couch, and the beige color blends seamlessly with my neutral decor. It’s become my go-to for Netflix marathons, and at 50x60 inches, it’s long enough to tuck under my toes while still covering my shoulders.

**Pros:** The lightweight fabric is perfect for summer nights or layering in winter (though don’t expect heavy warmth). After a wash (cool water, medium dryer), it came out fuzz-free and even softer—no shrinkage or fading. At $22, it’s a steal for gifting or dorm rooms.

**Cons:** Thinness is the big caveat. One disappointed reviewer hoped for bed use, but it’s more of a decorative throw—ideal for couches, not replacing your comforter. Another noted slow drying post-wash, so air-drying might save time.

**Verdict:** If you want affordable softness for lounging, this delivers. But if you need substantial warmth or durability? Manage expectations. For me, it’s a 4/5—adorable and functional, just not revolutionary.
