Review on 🧢 Grey Rothco Wool Blanket - 70% Wool Content by Jamie Denison

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Fuzzy thing!

This review is on a product, not a seller. The item was received safe and sound by the seller. The blanket had a nasty (chemical) smell, so despite the label saying dry clean only, I tossed it in the washing machine as I often do with woolens. I washed quickly (less time) in cold water and on the gentle cycle. A lot of fluffy wool came out. It was a mess to clean the washing machine. After hanging to dry, the lint was still there. It didn't shrink, looked normal but when I put it on all the clothes were off. I'm a seamstress and know a lot about fabric materials. So I don't think it's the laundry. It was just a fluffy woolen fabric badly made. I still gave 2 stars because it's wool, the price was ok and it's still warm, but you may need to buy or sew a blanket (spread) for it.

Pros
  • Ideal for camping, emergencies or regular use.
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly
