Home Essence Apartment Microlight Plush Oversized Blanket

just opened the inner wrapper and took the blanket out. the carton was delivered outside in the rain andvwhen I was finally able to reach out with my grabber stick, snag it with the knob by the end, smacking it into the sodden box and dragging it toward the door as the box began to disintegrate, i took out the damp interior plastic bag wrapped blanket and left it to dry overnight before opening the plastic. the blanket was thankfully, dry. i love the light "western sky blue" color, the soft pile is pleasant to the touch, and its heavy enough to be warm, and light enough to be comfortable as a 2nd blanket layer. i need it for half of my king size bed, and its just right for that. so far i see no signs of the fibers coming off as some other purchasers say they experienced l. the manufacturer may have corrected the problem, or the fiber loss may depend on the color. so far, i love the blanket,l and will use it tonight. if i experience problems , I'll revise my evaluation. only time and use will tell.
