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 stiffer than cloth , like a sheet of plastic , but not as loud as the cheap Mylar emergency blankets . It is more of a tarp than a " blanket" . Still an excellent product . A bit small as a shelter . Buy two , sew them togeather . Everyone does . Windproof , waterproof , light and warm , but yes a little noisy .

They came wrapped in a plastic bag with a snap closure. I usually purchase the 4 packs so I can take one out and give it away to new mommies and then I'm still able to give other gifts instead of just blankets. Not sure what you're asking about as far as being different from classic types? Do you mean classic flannel receiving blankets? If so, these are much larger and better for swaddling. Also, as the name implies, these are made from muslin, a much lighter fabric.

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.

I have the Soft-heat microfleece so cannot describe the difference but have been happy with my purchase; this is the 3rd winter using it. It is very lightweight and soft and heats quickly. I do sandwich it between another blanket and a comforter for strength so that we don't pull on it--I suspect this one might be more tear-resistant. Some have complained the wires of the one I have are in a tissue-like layer so I have been careful to not pull on it by itself. When I saw this ribbed one I wondered if this was the manufacturer's answer to that problem--with stronger exterior fabric to support the wires? Not sure but I can say I am happy so far with the Soft heat micro-fleece.

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

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.

It is goose down. I bought 2 of them and My daughter and I both agree incredibly warm. The only thing that was odd was the bottom part of the blanket you could see the feathers between in the blanket so waiting to see how durable it is. But for right now I would definitely buy a third if my son was living at home instead of at school.

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.

The rip-stop nylon is slick. I believe you can get this same bag in a canvas option if you would prefer that. For me, the canvas bag was going to be too heavy...as the nylon bag is already 15lbs. We went camping this winter and this bag kept us warm and cozy well below 0 degrees. Other than the fact that it is MASSIVE and takes up a lot of space in the car, this winter bag is wonderful with a cuddle buddy.

The comforter is a thick summer comforter. However there are many different blankets. A blanket is subjective. You may be able to use it in the winter in some states but if you live in cold weather ie below 50 degrees than I say it's not a winter blanket. So I can't answer your question so easily. Some blankets are very thick and are rated for the cold winter some people tolerate cold and or heat at various levels. My suggestion is to purchase one and return it if it doesn't work out for you. I hope this helps but there are too many variables to your question.

I bought this tent for my grand children to play in at Christmas time. It is a great size and really neat design. to answer your question, the floor of the tent is denier nylon. I do place a folded quilt on the floor bed to make it softer and cozier for them. Hope this helps.

It's a winter weight blanket. Since it's wool it's heavier than the cotton or microfiber ones by far. I had a Hudson Bay as a child and bought this one because I missed having a nice winter blanket.

It would appear to be there is no difference. Both look like the one I own. The blanket is of the best grade and quality I have ever seen, well worth the cost. It is 100% Wool, and 100% Quality. Will Keep you warm better than any blanket you own. Thanks.

It is just the thick plastic material. I put in a covered foam pad and folded blanket on the bottom for cushioning. My dog sleeps inside the house at night. This doghouse would be cold outside at night. Perhaps an igloo doghouse is insulated(?) I've never had that kind. I hope this helps.

I don't know the answer to that.i can tell you it is a warm visually soothing blanket,not meant for biting or wrestling with.my 7 year old granddaughter lays with it while watching her shows at night or morning.my 3 and a half month old niece gets all excited just touching the colors.it is pretty,it is cool but not something to use to walk around with as a blankie,unless they are old enough.
