Review on Aeolus Down Luxlen Extra Long Twin XL Microfiber Blanket in Black - Reversible: Soft Plush to Satin Cool by Allison Smith

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Cat Approved/Customer Approved

TL:DR=cat approved, therefore buyer approved. Microfiber = soft and fluffy. Satin = striped. size = exact. Color = imprecise, sky blue more like slate grey. So, backstory: My cat decided to wage war on my old bedspread, which was an absolutely gorgeous turquoise blue but had embroidery and fabric on it that Jitters (my cat) decided to destroy every morning around 4:50-5:50 . It would wake me up and get me going. dissatisfied. So I looked for fabrics that cats would approve of and not try to destroy. Solution: microfiber. Then I went looking for microfiber duvets and decided on these. Received it yesterday and as the summer months begin in South Carolina it is sitting at the foot of my bed in the same spot as the old one where my cat decided to destroy it. So I haven't slept under it and don't expect to for many months. But given the expectations from reading other comments, this is about what I wanted. I was expecting something like a micro cloth (like screen cleaning wipes) and it's more like a microfiber cloth but soft that isn't itchy. The satin is striped, which you can't tell from the image on display as it's a microfiber top (come on folks, hasn't anyone figured that out yet?) and it doesn't look like shiny satin. This is not the color I wanted and expected from the picture. The sky blue on the display is closer to the aqua of my bedroom, but it's actually more of a slate gray. Maybe I got the wrong color? I do not know. All I know is that I slept until my alarm went off at 7:00 am with no known cat breaks. The customer is satisfied (at least last night - looking ahead).

Pros
  • Divider seam to prevent padding from shifting
Cons
  • Long delivery time
