Review on πŸ§₯ Catalonia Hooded Wearable Blanket Poncho for Adult Women Men: Stay Warm, Cozy, and Stylish with this Fleece Wrap Cape! by Kendra Adams

5β˜† but "Do not machine wash! "

"Do not machine wash". That should be the first thing you see when you open the box! Rzhunimagu! (Well, I should have read the label). I never thought I couldn't just throw him (the Sherpa) in the washing machine. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE THIS PONCHO BLANKET! I love him so much (Sherpa only) that I bought 2 and gave them as Christmas gifts+. But I threw it in the washing machine after the spill, which only washed out with a little soap. Somewhere (and I'm sure where) between the washer and dryer, she released a mountain of lint that's still stuck to both sides after 7 rounds in the dryer. Tried to shake it off, didn't work. I've tried using a lint roller. Vain. rubber glove. A bit of luck. Finally, after a few hours, my husband offered a stiff brush. It worked! After we both got through that, between drying and hand brushing, we ended up with a clump of lint the size of a softball (I wanted to add photos, but the Revain app doesn't work for that right now). Luckily it's back to normal on cold winter days, soft, warm, sooo cosy. I can move comfortably in it, lean back the thing in my arms to wash my hands, do whatever you want in it, and then sit down and watch TV. Note: The buttons are open to wear it as a poncho, close it and you can use it as a blanket or even share it with someone else. It has a nice patch pocket on the front for your hands or whatever you want to carry around. I would have given 10 stars if there was a better warning about the laundry. But then it's my fault for not reading the fine print. If you're giving it as a gift, make sure they know they can't put it in the washing machine like a regular fleece, or wash it on a delicate cycle and hang dry, and watch the washing machine during the wash, because that is hard when it was wet and my washing machine broke. out of balance twice during washing. As I said, I don't know where the problem started: with the washing machine? Dryer? No matter what, this is SO VALUE because everyone I've given it to loves it. This is a great gift PS stick to "Sherpa" it's like a double fleece. I tried the other one you suggested and sent it back as it's not as well made (looks cheap) and is thinner, losing the plush fleece on top and the standard fleece on the inside like the Sherpa.
