One review read: "On the same level has a white company one (well very nearly)." A second shopper said: "This throw is nice quality, quite heavy and really warm. It’s lovely and soft and luxurious, great value for money, this is the second one I have bought, I loved the first and didn’t want to share it!"

A third review read: "Really nice, thick blanket and the faux fur is plush. Much heavier than other more expensive brands. A bargain!" A fourth shopper said: "I recently purchased my second item in the grey colour. It is so superior to anything else I have seen like this. This includes more expensive ones. They wash nicely in a 30 deg machine. I would recommend it to everyone who is considering buying one. You won’t be disappointed."

Another reviewer said: "Lovely and soft and warm throw. Will be much needed in the winter months". While one shopper said: "These are excellent value and will help you save on heating costs if you snuggle up in one of these to watch the tv."
