Facts Re: Cotton Blankets / CA King for Queen
Update November 25, 2021:I am quite impressed with the weight and warmth of this blanket. This is a good blanket for the winter in Texas. It may be a bit too much for the dead of summer in some locales. I was expecting a much thinner blanket with a looser weave. The weave on this is fairly tight for a cotton thermal blanket. It does feel kind of like a waffle weave thermal shirt. It's warm, but the cotton keeps it from becoming too hot.The California King size for my rather tall (18+") Queen mattress was a good call. The blanket did shrink, despite my washing in cold and drying on low. The blanket does hang enough down the sides to cover up with, but just comes short of being able to tuck any blanket in on the sides. That's okay. My huge mattress is a beast to tuck anything under/in due to its weight, anyway.Original Review:I have laundered but not yet used this blanket. I expect it to perform well and be warm when we finally put together our new bed and dress it using this blanket.Facts about cotton blankets/towels, responding to some other Dollcent/Hillfair reviews:1. Because they are made of lots of 100% cotton in a commercial factory, they will be FULL of loose cotton fibers. That means they will shed a lot of lint in both the washer and dryer when they are first laundered. ***There is nothing wrong with the item; shedding is normal and will become less over time.***The same thing happened with our thick towels from Costco. It also means you are not getting a flimsy item, but one of better quality because it contains more cotton.2. a. 100% cotton shrinks, especially foreign-made.b. 100% cotton shrinks, especially foreign-made.c. 100% cotton shrinks, especially foreign-made.Therefore, size up some to allow for shrinkage and still have the size you need.For our new extra-deep Queen mattress with topper (will be 17"-18" high), I chose to get a *California King* (NOT a regular King) blanket so that there would be enough length to accommodate covering the sides and still be able to tuck it in, even after laundering.3. All-cotton thermal blankets tend to stretch out over time when used on the bed, due to their loose weave. Don't panic too much or too quickly about shrinkage!! After laundering, my 2 California King blankets ended up being about 88.5 inches wide by 96 inches long. After I put them on the bed and start pulling them around when making the bed, I totally expect the blankets to stretch by as much as 6-12 inches in both directions, based on what all my other all-cotton thermal blankets have done.4. All-cotton thermal blankets are not made of microfiber, polyester, fleece, or acrylic, but are made of cotton, a naturally nubbier-feeling fabric. Therefore the blanket will feel more nubby and natural. The loose weave also makes the blanket feel more nubby. This is normal, and not a flaw or a sign of poor quality. Use a fabric softener, dryer balls, or a dryer sheet to give it a *slightly* softer feel, if you must.My take: I think the blankets are more substantial than my other thermal blankets with a looser weave. I expect my 2 identical blankets to perform well this winter. I'm happy all 4 sides are hemmed, so the blankets can be used going either direction.

Blanket comfort
Nice weight all season bed blanket! Washed nicely and good color. Fair price. Not as soft as I would like but with washings it might improve.

Nostalgic feel and weight
This blanket feels like the blankets my grandma had. It has some weight to it without pinning you down. It's comforting. It is not necessarily soft but isn't rough or stiff either and really is perfect for layering. It's been in the teens with windchills below zero here for about a week. I received the blanket and slept with it for the first time last night under a light quilt with all cotton sheets. I'm prone to night sweats regardless of the temperature and experienced none last night AND I was warm! IMPORTANT...after reading the reviews, I ordered a king for my queen. I washed and dried it before using and it did shrink a bit and left a lot of lint in the dryer (setting an alarm to empty it every 10-15 minutes, per suggestion from another reviewer, is advised) but by the 3rd cycle it wasn't bad at all and it did not shed fibers while I was making the bed. The king drapes beautifully over a queen bed. I could use it as a bedspread in the summer months. I don't believe that I would've been able to do that with a queen after laundering. It IS 100 percent cotton so the shrinking is not a surprise and I'm glad I sized up. If you remember how well you slept at your grandma's house...it's like that. <3 Comforting and nostalgic.

Great light weight year 'round blanket
Rich color, soft even after washing, size covers twin bed well. I'd purchase again.

Great but not true to size
This is a great thermal blanket and gives all the warmth and not all the bulk. However, it does not fit a king size mattress. If I put it on the bed the way it’s designed then only several inches falls on each side and it barely comes up to my neck. If I turn it around the other way, then I have a lot of blanket around my neck and no overhang on either side.

Exactly what i was looking for
I love this blanket. It's just the right weight for summer bedding. It didn't fade in the washer. My bed is a queen and in order to get the length of drape down the sides of the bed that i wanted, i chose a king size. It's just right. I like the blue denim color, too. And it was reasonably priced. I would buy it again.

Produces Excessive Lint and Shrinks Noticeably
I have always loved waffle blankets and have tried many from various manufacturers. While it's common for most of them to shed some lint, especially after washing, this particular brand sheds an excessive amount, far more than I expected. Additionally, I was quite disappointed with how much the blanket shrank after washing. It became significantly shorter in length and narrower in width, making it difficult to use comfortably in either orientation. The shrinkage has affected its overall functionality and appeal.
