Arcturus Military Wool Blanket

The Arcturus Wool Blanket is fantastic! It’s incredibly soft and warm without feeling heavy or scratchy. Perfect for chilly nights on the couch or camping trips. I appreciate the quality craftsmanship—it feels like something that will last for years.Bonus points for the classic, timeless design that goes well in any room. Definitely worth the investment if you’re looking for a cozy, durable blanket.

This wool blanket is dense, warm, and holds up well to outdoor elements- so it's a great choice for camping, keeping as a just-in-case blanket for the car, or even in place of a duvet. I've used it both outside and inside, and it really holds up well against the sun, water (when I forget it outside during a storm), and cold/windy days. It doesn't hold smells long, at least as far as I've seen, but I do air it outside a lot. Not the softest wool blanket, but it has softened more after several months of use, and it's a great quality for the price.While I've used it myself in order to fully review it, I actually purchased this for my cats. They absolutely LOVE this wool blanket. As soon as I put it down they're all over it. They use it as a bed, play with it like a toy, and climb across like spider monkeys or do zoomies through it when it's draped over something. I also used it as a crate cover and it works great since it big and heavier than a typical blanket, making it easy to place over the crate without too much sliding. As a crate cover it blocked out pretty much all light (I bought a darker color), so the cats can have a nice dark area for sleeping/hiding.One downside it that is does shed like crazy while being washed (but that's pretty typical of the wool products I've gotten). I first handwashed it with Woolite, and it shed a ton. Then washing machine, and it shed all over the washer (though not as much as the first wash). Shedding isn't nearly as bad after the first few washings. As a warning, it's super heavy when soaking wet.Overall I'm very happy with this product and plan on purchasing another soon!Edit: Still a great product after 1 year of use, no issues with fabric or stitching even with cats clawing all over it. The charcoal black color has only faded a little while being in the sun and outdoor elements pretty much 24/7. The 2nd blanket I got in green shed A LOT less compared to the previous one I bought. I'm thinking the new blanket design sheds less than before, which is great.I also used 2 blankets to help keep a feral cat I trapped and spayed warm during the nights until I released it, to cover both the trap and crate and keep the heat in. Worked fantastic! Going to buy another before the winter cold sets in this year.

Perfect for 40° F under the stars. Don't let its convenient packability fool you. It feels thicker than it looks. Once you're wrapped up in it the warmth and the weight speak for themselves. It's clearly well-made and softer than the sheep it came from, which shocked my girl a ton cuz she's so picky about fabrics and hates how even supposedly soft wool still ends up scratchy.The first impression upon opening was the opposite of my last blanket-by-mail. No weird odor, no shedding, neatly folded yet no weirdly "sticky" creases. After using it for a few months, it's retained its comfort, color, and stitching entirely. I can tell this is going to last me a long time - far longer than I paid for. It was 100% worth it, and I advise anyone who gets this blanket to get the carry strap as well.

GREAT QUALITY. I purchased this wool blanket to keep in my car. I am impressed. Proper care instructions are included. It does state that the wool blanket is best line-dried and that it will significantly shed IF you dry it in a machine. It comes triple cleaned and able to be used directly out of the package. It states dry-cleaning is a best option for this item, but machine wash is okay. There are different versions available for you to pick according to your needs. I will be purchasing this item again, as gifts. I'm a PNW girl, and I like that this blanket is from a Washington state based company. I will be checking out additional items from tis company.Durability:Having a wool blanket is a staple item. This is a quality item that will last forever.Value for money:The version of this blanket that I purchase is 80% Wool and 20% Synthetic. At $32 (on Prime Deal), I don't think you could possibly beat the quality for the cost. Design:Simple, clean, wool cut with a stitched edge. Comfort:This product is smooth wool upon opening the package. This comes triple washed and states it will become softer with each wash.

The blanket is nice. Large, warm and a little scratchy, which is what all will blankets are, so who cares? I like the color.But when it arrived it smelled like a rotting corpse soaked in a bathtub filled with chicken diarrhea then buried in a pit full of wild onions and blister pus for two weeks. Aired it outside for a few days and it is fine now, but man, that thing smelled like the inside of an obese 14 year old's tube sock that they wore for nine days straight then used to clean up cat urine. And the cat was sick. Yuk. Otherwise great - 4 stars YAY!
