Lightweight for summer/warm climates; micro fleece for cold winter nights. I have both.

I'd say it's about the same as a light quilt. Not nearly as warm as a puffy comforter, but about the same as an average blanket.

I think this is less "bulky" both the fabric & the heating wires that run through it. I love it, but it is on the smaller side, not as wide as a throw, which might be appealing if you were looking for a shoulder wrap or lap blanket for an older person. I'm 5'9" and it's long enough to keep me warm from shoulders to toes!

I am not sure but the person receiving this blanket as a gift, loves it. It is longer and thicker than an ordinary fleece throw and seems to be well worth the price.

It is a large thin blanket. It is made out of a silky poncho like material. Thy are amazing and very warm and light weight. Love them and will buy more. A lot like my dads original army blanket he has at home

To be honest I bought mine for emergencies so I have not used it yet. However, it did seem to be itchy. I think most wool is unless you are buying cashmere. I could be mistaken. I hope this helps you. I highly recommend buying this blanket regardless as they do not make them of this quality anymore.

Micro Flannel is softer than Egyptian in my opinion. I really love the feel of my Micro Flannel Sheets.

The material feels like any regular fleece, soft and warm. It's actually a two piece fleece, with Velcro on the top, and back sides of the bottom piece. It does a decent job at covering the neck area, the only thing is it depends on how well you Velcro the bottom and top. This product is more of a bottom layer, since you can Velcro the top portion to another fleece cap. If your in a tuff winter area(I'm in Northern Michigan), this would be a great under lining for extra warmth.

Polyester, it is wonderful and so light but keeps you warm without being overly hot. I got one for 2 of my adult kids and they love it also.

Both versions have a jersey cotton inner layer and the same amount of polyfil. The only difference is the outer layer - cotton in one and microfleece in the other. If you are looking to maximize breathability, the cotton would probably be your better option.

It is similar, but because it is thin it is softer in my opinion. You may want to look into the toddler one if you are looking for something a little more dense. I have both. I will submit a picture of the two in the reviews so you can see the difference.

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.

i bought an extra white one and the blue fleece one..I like the blue fleece one better cause white gets too dirty...they are pricy tho...when i bought them they were around $40 now its more...so if you can make one do that...but due to the shape its hard to find another one that works

REI has the same blanket. Their website says 5X7 feet. From my observation in actual use, that sounds right. Remember that there is no fleece on this thing, despite the picture.

Micro flannel is 100% polyester. These are the most comfortable cold weather sheets I have ever had. No pilling, not as heavy as flannel, very easy to care for.

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.

Our poncho-style blanket is 38" x 60"The Travelrest blanket is made of Micro Fleece, which is a lightweight,warm and comfortable fabric. It retains much of its insulating powers even when wet and it is highly breathable. These qualities make it useful for making clothing intended to be used during strenuous physical activity and blankets; perspiration is able to readily pass through the fabric. It is machine washable and dries quickly. It is a good alternative to wool (of particular importance to those who are allergic or sensitive to wool).
