Utopia Bedding 100 Cotton Blanket Reviews Summary

Texture and Comfort

Pros:

• "This one has a nice tight weave."
• "It is very smooth and tailored looking when tucked and it doesn’t snag the way some woven blankets do."
• "This blanket is pretty soft for a tight cotton weave however."
• "It's well made."
• "It's soft, light, but will still keep you warm on a cool night."
• "I'm very pleased with this cotton blanket and it is exactly what I hoped it would be: tightly woven, soft, lightweight coverage for summer."
• "Love the perfect color & weight of this blanket."

Cons:

• "Horrible against my skin."
• "Doesn't look as smooth and soft as show in the product pictures. You would notice pilling."
• "Cotton blankets like this are not soft and fluffy, so if that's what you're looking for, this is not for you."
• "It's so tightly woven that it is 'stiff', not soft."
• "The blanket is definitely not something you'll want to curl up with nor is it cuddly, so don't expect to do that."
• "Nor does the blanket ever get any softer. It has a very rough, uncomfortable texture."
• "This blanket is as stiff as cardboard."

Size and Fit

Pros:

• "Good large size for full, queen I think would work too, breathes, yet warm for hot sleeper/ hot rooms etc."
• "They are nice and large."
• "It's a very nice darker purple color, and still fits the queen bed after being washed several times and dried on a lower setting."
• "The fit is true to size for my queen bed, with just enough hang over."
• "I have a queen size mattress and wanted it to hang down the sides so I purchased the king size and it works great."
• "Bought a king size for my queen bed. I just wanted to make sure it would hang down the sides nicely."
• "It hangs almost 2’ on each side."

Cons:

• "The description of the queen size blanket being 90 x 90 is only a dream."
• "Since then got a king bed and it still fits but it's about 3-4 inches short on each side."
• "The king size barely covers my basic king mattress."
• "Additionally, I ordered a King size and it barely fits over the sides of the bed."
• "I purchased a queen blanket for a queen size bed. It covers the mattress however you only get about 2 inches of blanket on each side."
• "But the size of these blankets does not match the specifications and they are several inches too short for the bed."
• "The king size barely covers my basic king mattress. I don’t have a pillow top or any additional things on my mattress making it larger than standard."

Durability and Maintenance

Pros:

• "I believe that this blanket will last a long time and for the price it’s great value."
• "It should last a good 20 years as I have high expectations of this kind of quality."
• "Have washed mine twice and hung over the treadmill to dry and has kept its size and shape."
• "This blanket does not shrink or shed if washed in cool water and line or machine dried on cool and removed promptly."
• "I freed this blanket from its plastic prison... NO DYE BLEED! NO SHRINKAGE!"
• "It seems like it is very good quality, no lint, pilling or pulling."
• "I suspect it will last a lifetime with the right care."

Cons:

• "Took it out of the wash and it looked like someone had dumped bleach over large areas of it."
• "After the initial washing it came out of the dryer with splotches of color that seemed to have wash away."
• "The smell is horrendous. It must be due to the dye they use."
• "I discovered that it was ripped but I can't be sure it was ripped before I washed it."
• "After the next wash, it could not be tucked under the mattress."
• "Not the greatest option out there. I've had this for just shy of a year now and dye still bleeds every single wash."
• "The gray blanket developed large splotches of color loss."
