Vellux Original Blanket

This Vellux Original blanket is the same model that I remember using in my youth. I still love the softness and subtle structure of the blanket. It is lightweight and provides a medium amount of warmth. I use it layered between my bedspread and top sheet.

this is the best blanket I have ever purchased. Very soft and also very warm. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Bought this blanket to use when camping out on the sofa looking at movies and ended up using full time on my king-size bed instead. It is super plush and warm to say it is so light weight and is listed as a King size throw. It didn't shed after several washings and still has the same intensity of color as when bought. If you are looking for a light weight year round comfortable throw / blanket that fits nicely on your bed and as a throw this one is well worth it. Definitely would buy again.

Good size, light weight. I have had vellux blankets in the past and LOVED them. This one doesn’t seem quite as soft to the touch, but it may soften up with age and use. I would like it even more if it was just about 2- 4 inches bigger all around.

This is the blanket I grew up with that is so hard to fund. 100% Nylon as expected. Perfect. Keeps you just warm enough and cool enough at the same time. Good quality, very happy. Tip: wash on cool delicate and dry on low. It will take a couple cycles. Always clean out lint trap between cycles. There will be small fine puff balls in the trap, this is expected.

Super warm and soft. Great for lounging on sofa or on bed. Great price

I love the Vellux blankets as they're light weight but warm. I would order them again and again as they're great. They launder well too

i'm compelled to write my first review in my more-than-a-decade on amazon. this blanket (in its current version) is truly awful. i've loved the vellux brand my whole life. i had my last (good) vellux blanket since the 90s and only got rid of it as a result of an unfortunate dog-and-skunk incident. the martex label (currently owned by 'westpoint home') is now made in china (despite westpoint's claims and according to the tag on the blanket itself). it's significantly thinner than its older, american counterpart. that spongy foam feeling that the old blankets had? gone. worse yet is the smell. the new blankets reek of formaldehyde. the smell does *not* wash out -- which is curious because the *entire rest of the blanket* did. a single laundering was enough to destroy the new martex vellux blanket. what happens is that the nylon flocking comes completely undone from the paper-thin foam core in little, smelly fabric pills that get all over the washer. the remainder of the blanket pills up and falls off in the (no heat!) dry cycle. all that was left of my first westpoint martex vellux blanket (moss green, if it matters) was the flimsy grid and a few bits of formaldehyde-smelling nylon. because i have so greatly loved this product in the past, and because this particular blanket was so easily and weirdly destroyed, i re-ordered it -- a replacement for my replacement. i counted on this whole situation as having been just an awful fluke. nope. westpoint martex vellux blanket #2 fared no better. in fact, westpoint martex vellux blanket #2 broke my dryer. maybe i'm a chump, but it's only because i am so very loyal to the blanket of my youth (and twenties). i'd even be willing to try a vellux blanket again someday, so long as it's not westpoint's mertex vellux (manufactured in china). a complete disappointment.

I love this blanket, it's as warm as thick duvet without the weight. 100% recommend it.

these are so soft and light, love the colour

Bought for my granddaughters as a Christmas present.

Maravilhoso

Been using this brand and line for over 15 years. Just find the product is no longer the same quality as it was back then. Still good but not as warm and soft like before.
