Bumping this up.

I’m not even sure $50 is a lot for a blanket?

My 2 year old really Needs a blanket that covers him for winter.

Will the minky bee do the job?


Yes it’s perfect!

They are so so worth it. I have 4, 2 bigger bees and 2 loviebees for when I babysit and I couldn't be happier with them.

If you can afford it go for it. If not there are plenty of blankets that are cozy for cheaper. I'm happy with mine from Costco.

I don't think it's worth the money. I definitely think it's the hype. There are so many other cozy and soft blankets around. Personally I think they're taking advantage of the hype by charging all this money. But that's just me.

Now that I've felt it, I think you shouldn't buy it sight unseen.

It looks like it’s just minky fabrics and you can buy that online from fabric.com or other places. It doesn’t need a hem stitch because it’s polyester that won’t unravel.

Here to say the opposite of those above me. In my opinion, if you still want this blanket so so much, after all this time, then buy it. For yourself. It's true, it might not be worth it financially, but it's not a huge loss, either, and it's worth it if it'll make you happy.

Pick the color you like best and go for it.

It may not be a huge loss for you.
I would be really sad to spend 60 bucks of my hard earned money, get it and be disappointed as soon as I get it and be unable to return it.

I totally agree. You won't be making a hasty decision, as you thought long and hard about it.

Go for it and come back to let us know if it's yay or nay..

I agree. I meant that I don't think it's a huge loss of money to splurge on something you really want.

It sounds like this blanket isn't bad quality, so there won't be a huge disappointment, and it will be useful regardless. But, if it only costs an extra $40 more than a cheaper blanket, and it's something you really really want, then that $40 isn't going to waste, it's going to something that you want, and that you're buying as a splurge for yourself, like a treat for yourself.

Who says she wouldn't be able to return it? No where on the site does it say final sale.

Op, I splurged on it last night. Hope I'll be happy.

Just checked return policy, and you're right, it's nonrefundable unless it's defective. That's ok, because I'm anticipating loving it so much, that instead of returning I'll want to purchase a second one.

OP - please tell me if you got it.

Do you love it? Are you happy?

I'm thinking about getting it for my husband for a chanuka present. When he has a minute to relax, he usually is on the couch. We have throw blankets and I thought this might be nice for him. But I don't know if he would care that's it's "so soft and cozy". He has no problem with the normal throws we have. I'm just looking for a gift and I thought of this and I'm wondering what you think.

(Also my kids love the throws we have on the couch - love cozying up with them. But I'd be getting it as a gift for DH even though of course they would use them too.)

Any other imas feel free to chime in.

Thank you

We like it but I don't think the price justifies the item.
They're so many out there that are much cheaper
