Madison Park Reversible Plush Down Blanket vs Down Filled Cotton Blanket

The Down Filled Cotton Blanket is the better blanket for most shoppers. It uses real 550 fill power Hyperclean down in a 100% cotton shell with sewn-through box construction, so it breathes, drapes and lasts like a proper down blanket. The Madison Park is a polyester down-alternative with a plush face that reverses to microfiber; it is softer to the touch out of the bag and easier to wash, but it traps heat and will not match the cotton blanket's breathability or longevity. Both rate 4.8, though the Madison Park has more ratings.

• Choose the Madison Park if you want a plush, reversible polyester blanket for layering on a twin bed and you prefer a synthetic fill you can machine wash without fuss.
• Choose the Down Filled Cotton Blanket if you want genuine down warmth in a breathable cotton shell, a generous drape and a made-in-USA build.
