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!!!

The blanket does not get hot!!! only warm I was a little disappointed in that fact myself on those really cold nights..But its better than a cold bed..I have had blankets in the past that have gotten warmer.

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

The exterior is made of nylon type of canvas material. It is a very close weave resulting in a relative smooth textured fabric.It's major feature is the removable internal hard plastic liner that catches the inevitable spill. The inner liner can be removed washed and returned.I highly recommend it. The removable plastic liner was the key factor in choosing this cooler.

This blanket is fiber reinforced mylar. With a little care it can be reused. I stapled 2 blankets together into a large "pocket" and have used it for a weather proof sleeping bag cover that has lasted for several years........Paul

The inside material is soft like a flannel sheet. I do not believe it will snag. It is not like nylon which will snag. I like it.

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 .

the controler failed & the company sent out a new one no questions asked. is it worth the money? well, i like the idea that the heat is produced w/12volts not 120. it does not heat up like ac tpyes but does get very warm. i like to turn of the blanket on before going to bed to give the blanket a chance to heat up the bed. the wire in the blanket is thin & the blanket is of very good quality. i would recommend this blanket only if you have concerns w/ sleeping w/ a blanket w/ 120 volts pulsing through it so closing to your body.

Yes...and it does have lint! My husband loves it. I'm ambivalent. doesn't do much for me temperature wise that I thought it would do, but still a nice blanket.

No. It isn't a blanket type. It is a duvet covet much like sheet material. I haven't seen a matching blanket anywhere. And I plan to buy extras so I will always have one. I love Ikea.

If you are planning to use the blanket outside, I would guess that only wrapping the animal in the blanket would reflect body heat of any consequence; not just having the cat sleeping on it. Trying to wrap a cat and have it stay inside the blanket would be a challenge. Winds sweeping over the sleeping cat would be an issue. Seriously low temperatures' influence would also be a factor depending on the degrees. I would suggest you contact the manufacturer to discuss specific details of your questions of this nature. It is heart warming to see you trying to protect your furry friends! If possible,I would bringing the cat inside to be sheltered.

I really don't know. However, I did not like this blanket at all. It is very heavy and won't stay on the bed at night. It slides off on one side and ends up half on the floor. I couldnot return it because it was past 30 days when I tried to. Suggest you choose another blanket like I did. I,m just giving it away, got another from Peney,s that we love.

Hi, This is a tarp with a reflective coating on one side. I don't know how the coating is applied, or if it is a layered sheet adhered to tarp. It is a multiple use blanket, and I just used one camping last Fri., and it it worked well and took off the chill in the early morning. I bought several and I am going to add some more grommets to a couple of them. I also used one Sat morning about pre dawn to get some extra sleep in the car, blocked out the sunrise and retained the body heat. Temps were in the mid 50's and they worked very well.

The blanket has the markings of origin being an old mwswap NATO Europe conventional secondary distributal. I believe its a euonato French bucket bundlement. These can be made in northern Europe or Canada and then recontracted back out to Thailand Malaysia so on so forth. Its a legitimate second bundlements blanket, I like it for the price. Its not 100% wool, its 70% wool and polyester. Its pretty good deal for the price. I can not guarantee the quality of course as they are actual resurplus issue. That's something to keep in mind. I use these for my dogs, the beach, and the best true utility blanket. There really not that bad. The stink when you first get them. Just spray them with disinfectant aerosol and then tide/ freebreeze linen softener .

I have never tested the blanket to see if it is waterproof but my best guess is no. I use this in my hammock to augment a wool blanket and / or sleeping bag depending on the air temp. It is basically an insulated nylon blanket that I liked so much I bought another one. BTW...this is not really big enough to serve as a bivy anyway...too small unless for a child.
