Review on πŸ•οΈ CleverMade Blanket Camping Picnic Built: The Ultimate Must-Have Outdoor Companion by Brandon Plowden

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Suitable for park, not suitable for beach

This is a good blanket for the park or to cover something you don't want to sit on (e.g. slightly damp soil). It's not soft, but it keeps the ground off you (noticeable by the grass not letting you kick off the grass). It is waterproof and easy to clean. Measured size 58 1/2 x 67 1/2. Just a few centimeters smaller than the stated size. Two people lying down (with hanging legs) or 4 people sitting. It has a zipped pocket big enough for a phone and some snacks. It's about 15 x 8 but very flat so it doesn't fit much. An open bottle is attached to it, which is convenient for a picnic. It has holes for an umbrella which is good but the bad side is some moisture can get in through the holes. But when water isn't a problem, it comes in handy. The ceiling feels plastic. Not as bad as a tarp, but not soft or a blanket. For that reason I wouldn't use it on the beach unless you had a towel. The tanning lotion would wash off of it, and since you can't machine wash it (at least I don't think you can, I haven't tried, I'm just guessing) you'll have to hand wash it. If I were taking it to the beach I would put a towel over it. I think it's great for a picnic but not for the beach.

Pros
