Shade of color is off a bit….
Color: Browngrey, Size: Throw-50"x60", Color: Browngrey, Size: Throw-50"x60"
I ordered two blankets to replace the queen size blanket I had originally, one being a throw blanket for the chase portion of the couch and the larger twin size blanket for the back rest of the couch. PROS: the blankets are beautiful!! They’re soft and luxurious with fluffy fur on one side and a velvety smooth mushroom/sage color on the other side. The sizes work perfectly together giving good coverage for such a large couch. I haven’t had any issues with shedding which was my concern. Washability seems easy enough. I’m gonna have to be careful with the drying process as to not damage the synthetic fibers. CONS: the color…. It’s not what was advertised at all. I ordered the brown/grey. what I got was more of a SANDY TAN/DARK GREY. (They use a color filter on the example photos which doesn’t translate well in person) At first I hated the color but it slowly grew on me! Works well with the rest of the living room decor and gives our space a cozy elegant vibe. I included photos of different times throughout the day to showcase how different lighting affects the color of the fur.

Color: Browngrey, Size: Queen-80"x80"
Honestly I love this blanket and want to buy a few more. Its thick & warm like it could be real fur. I just don’t know how to wash it but thats a given for faux fur. I bought the queen & it fits perfectly on my bed. I have started using it as a couch cover during the winter and it is very comfortable & soft.

Nice after fluffing & brushing
Color: White, Size: Throw-50"x60"
Thought it was scruffy and not soft enough but followed the directs to fluff and wait 24 hours, which helped. The kicker was brushing out the rough spots with a hair brush. Lovely now and definitely a bargain comparatively.

Gorgeous in person!
Color: White & Black, Size: 51"x67", Color: White & Black, Size: 51"x67"
This throw is gorgeous! Quality and elegance fill the room. It is well made and looks exactly like the photo and description. Has the black tips which is what I needed to bring my chair to life. It has a soft lining against your skin and i really didn't have to do much when I removed it from its packaging. It was nice and fluffy and looked beautiful draped on my chair. Many reviews said to shake it to bring flattened fur fluffy again but not on this one. I really love the black shading on it, its just enough. Beautifully packaged and arrived next day! Doesn't get too much better than this!
