This blanket is desenigrating every time it gets used. And it leaves so much lint everywhere and makes such a big mess. Im about to just throw it out.

I washed this and when it was dried the cotton amount was huge It kept shape and is warmer than I expected

Upside: a light blanket perfect for spring/summer temperatures; lovely muted plum tone. Downside: threads have pulled apart, broken in one day's use; not really reversible IMO because of the edge seam.

I already had an Eddie Bauer quilt so thought I would compliment it with same brand blanket. I was looking for 100% cotton and it did say to wash (or at least run through a dryer first) due to the lint to be expected. Well....it was A LOT of LINT captured by my dryer filter after washing so consider cleaning that out a couple times during the dry time. Just saying! The blanket is perfect, though, for year round comfort--not too hot nor cold for this southern location.

This blanket is everything I’d hoped it would be. Perfect weight, size and color. Very good quality. As others have stated there was a lot of lint in the dryer, but I can handle that and suspect it will lessen each time it is washed.
