What does Nylon flock really mean? I just received this blanket and it says Nylon with insulated base. What is "insulated base"?

The insulated base appears to be merely a foam sheet that the nylon is flocked onto. All I know for sure is that once you have one of these blankets, you'll love it. I keep mine on the bed year round...it's perfect!! Easy to wash/dry, light weight, just perfect. Who cares about the specifics....I LOVE this blanket!!!

It is a blanket. It heats good but the binding on the blanket was shoddily put on and has torn more. We needed it at the time we got it, otherwise we would have returned it. VERY poor workmanship.

They mean double as in 2 (small) people. This item only has one layer of nylon. I am very happy with mine and would highly recommend it. Hope this helps.

BTW, mine is soft, warm and the fur is in tact. I even machine was and dry it. The person who complained may have bought a cheap knock off. We have 5 blankets and they are great! Amazon seems to be cheaper than Ebay on these. Also, if u search fleece u may get the short fur or flannel type blankets.

This is a twin size blanket. It is quite generous . My husband has to sleep in a recliner due to lung problems and he loves it. It is warm enough that he turns it on only when it is very cold out. I think it is a better buy then the blanket I bought for my bed at 4 times the cost. I know this is long winded but I hope it has answered your question. Pamela B. Coada

This is not particularly insulating at all. We've used for one year of hot kids summer camp and it rarely ended the day very cold, even though we started with huge amounts of ice. This thing is little more than a plastic container in which you can transport liquids. There is no insulation other than the air trapped between two layers of plastic. Not what you hope for from the Coleman brand.

Not sure....doesn't have the shine or rigidity of nylon.......feels soft like cotton or a cotton blend, and also has a bit of a give to it lie a cotton blend. I've had this out in my yard for more than three month now, and it has gotten rained on a lot, but dries quickly and has not shown any signs of an odor. I've owned 2 other hammocks, and this one is by far the best.

It's a BDU coat. It is designed to be worn in warm weather and in cool or cold weather to be worn over other layers of clothing. It is not insulated. It's like a shirt made from heavy material.

Nylon. Heat resistant to over 550 degrees. We guarantee that you won't melt it.

This blanket does not shed. I'm not sure what the difference in material is. This one is got some nap to the fur but not like the faux fur blankets out there. It's not that long nor does it shed. Thanks.

So , the poncho liner is the name , but in the field we know that it is basically a very light compactable blanket , I can say that i have never and i have never seen anyone acutally use this with their poncho unless it was as a sleeping back , so i would say this is not really to be used as a " poncho liner " if you are wearing your poncho as wet weather gear . Its just a really good feild blanket or blanket in general. super lightweight and compacts really good .

I am unaware of the antimicrobial material. However, there is no chemical or any initial or permanent smell. In fact, I have used it on mission (military) and it does not get "funky." The blanket is large, warm and lightweight. And not smelly, which is an incredible plus.

I couldn't find a tag on the blanket, but it appears to be cotton. It's not real thick as wool would probably be, but it's not real thin either. You might ask the people who ship the item.

The base is some kind of thermoplastic capable of handling a heated stainless inner plate. The Nordic Ware website has plenty of good information about the temperatures they can handle, etc.

My 13 yr. old daughter runs hot at night with her fan on high but still used this blanket over her. So in not sure how to answer that. It seems like it would be similar to a soft double layer microfiber smooth cover.

The feral I kept warm would not use a blanket- straw worked right away. Under the straw you can add the heated blanket or I used the reflective blanket material that keeps body heat in. I put the reflective material under the straw. I made the straw thick around the sides and the bottom a bit less. I kept extra straw on hand for rainy or snowy days to replace the wet. She loved it while she was with me.

Hey Boni - this elect blanket is the most unique I've ever used! I'm a aged Vermonter who now can't stand the cold... so first time I plugged it in I expected a warmed bed when I got in. That wasn't the case. What really happened was - almost immediately I was warmed by a combination of my own body heat & the blanket's heating system. Now, during cold nights my setting is not much higher than 2... and I'm comfy & cozy. The blanket holds your heat better than any I've ever used. Enjoy!
