- Is this blanket big enough for a king bed?
- Yes. At 108 by 90 inches it covers a king mattress with overhang on the sides and foot, and still leaves room for two sleepers.
- Is it warm enough for winter?
- It is a light flannel layer, not a heavy winter blanket. Most owners use it over a duvet or as a summer blanket; in a cold room you will want something heavier underneath.
- How does it compare with a fleece throw?
- It is larger and drapes like a bed blanket rather than a throw, and flannel breathes better than polyester fleece. Fleece is usually warmer and cheaper to replace.
- Can it go in the washing machine?
- Yes, it is machine washable. Wash cold on a gentle cycle and tumble low; expect some lint in the dryer filter for the first few washes.
- Does it shed or pill?
- Both are common complaints. New blankets shed lint onto sheets, and pills can form after several washes. A cold wash and low heat reduce it but do not eliminate it.
- Where is the Bedsure King 1-Piece Brown Flannel Blanket cheapest?
- At Lowe's, for $61.99, as of our latest check.
