This is the height of luxury.
As John Mulhaney would say: "this is the height of luxury". I bought this after finding "The Comfy" too bulky and cumbersome to put on. This is just what I needed. Though it isn't AS warm due to being a poncho instead of an actual sweatshirt (therefor it can let some air in on the side) it covers my legs more and definitely doesn't mess with my hair as much as "the comfy" did when I tried to put it on. It's SO soft; it feels like petting a puppy. And the fact that each sale helps shelter animals is also a major plus. It's warm without being ridiculously heavy, it's crazy soft, and it covers a substantial amount of your body. And it's actually cute. A must buy.(For reference, I am 5.5" and 140 lbs)

Plushy but Short
This is a comfy item and I look forward to enjoying it on cold mornings. The faux fur that is used it a lighter short pile fur, so it's not too heavy to wear. There is something that needs to be said, however. This poncho is SHORT. The models it is photographed on are small. When I wear the Throwbee, it barely reaches my knees when standing. The photos make it look like it goes much closer to the wearer's ankles. If the manufacturer was worried about making it too long, one option could be to make it adjustable with snaps at the bottom of the poncho to hold it at a shorter length.

Very soft but the tags are annoying.
Love this blanket! Its warmer than the standard throwbee blanket and the plush side is super soft. My only complaint is the tags. There is one on each side, they are really stiff, and the stitching allows the edges to stand out and rub on you. I just used a seam ripper to remove the tags with no damage to the blanket, problem solved!

Poorly designed, feels like it's always choking me, overpriced.
I had high hopes for this item, and from some of the other reviews it seemed like it was going to be a really luxurious and cozy thing, but it turned out to be so uncomfortable I can't even describe it properly. first of all it has these giant stiff hard plastic e labels on both sides that are huge I mean unrealistically large and very difficult to remove without cutting the fabric because they're stitched on very durably. They're scratchy and so stiff that it's like you've glued the top to a cereal box onto both sides of your blanket. I don't know whose idea that was but it's a disaster.next thing that is wrong with it is the neck hole is just a slit that goes from the back to the front with these big metal snaps and no matter which position you put it in its tugging at your neck because the blanket is so heavy and it doesn't really rest on your shoulders because there's no shaping to it I know structure to the actual garment it's just a blanket with a hole slashed in the center and a couple of snaps to put it back together.The fabric is very soft that is the one highlight here, however this works as a disadvantage because again with no structure or shoulders built-in it just wants to slide one way or the other and pretty much is always choking you because the weight of the blanket and the slipperiness of this fake fur it doesn't had any friction whatsoever so it just slides around and ends up pulling at your neck in a very uncomfortable way.I definitely do not recommend this to anybody who likes comfort. There are a dozen other products that are much nicer and more comfortable and serve the purpose of keeping you warm while you wander around the house or lounge in a much better way. Check my other reviews for the one that I absolutely love more than anything.I tried a lot of different wearable blankets this winter, from most of the major contenders in the wearable blanket category and I would say this was my least favorite. It was also one of the most expensive.Also of note, I contacted the company to express my disappointment and I never heard anything from them so that is disappointing as well.I'm going to attempt to carefully remove the labels and then see if I can do some sort of modification to the shoulder area to keep it from sliding so severely. I will update this review if I can figure out a way to salvage this thing and make it comfortable. It's a shame because the fabric really is soft and it feels very nice next to my skin but there's just no getting around that choking factor. Or that big chunky stiff labeling.

Unpleasant to wear
I love the idea that this product benefits shelter dogs but it is way to heavy around my neck to wear comfortably. Maybe that is just due to the fact that it is two-layers but I just can't wear it.

Wife won't put it down
This was purchased for my wife to use on the cold mornings in the fall when she would go out to watch our daughters during soccer practice.It has never left the house as she wears it as a throw blanket for our nightly news watching and movie nights.She loves it, after about a year of having it, she is finally wearing it as it was intended, around her body during the winter.It is her favorite comfy, snuggle thing she owns. Easy purchase for the ladies, she is about 5'6 and it fits her well.

This is actually quite luxurious!
I love these Throwbee things! I now have four that once it gets a little cooler, I practically live in. They travel with me, internationally and across town. I bring them to the movies, and even for pedicures. I have been known to layer them. So this latest Throwbee is actually luxurious. I like the warm fluffy side next to me and the outer layer keeps me cozy. Layering is no longer needed when it gets REALLY cold, and it is a great blanket. They make great gifts too!

This is my third purchase from throwbee! I am so in love. I use my work poncho as a poncho and it keeps me so warm. I am 5β2, and my home poncho has become my baby blanket haha. I love it so much, and I love the email update I got when my purchases resulted in shelter dogs getting a blanket π seller contacted me via phone call to check on my purchase and overall this has been a 10/10 purchase.
