Why is this so much cheaper than the other Denali blankets? Close out?

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.

this blanket is not the montery mills denail blanket like all my others. It is not a nice blanket tho.

This blanket has been renamed to "Call of the North". It WAS the Denali design by Cabin Fever (Ramatex International). Denali is a BRAND of Monterey Mills, and they have no connection to Ramatex International. Cabin Fever called it "Denali" after the National Park. So this is not a Denali brand blanket.

I don't know which one you are considering for half the price. I have the $30.00 one with a lifetime guarantee and it is wonderful. No spots and no melting. Several before this just melted with certain foods hitting them. For a lifetime, I think $30.00 is a good deal. GoodLuck.

Boy, that is cold. It is a tough question since I did not buy the blanket for my bed which has a quilt and a plush throw and I keep my thermostat at 62 degrees at night. My area can get down to freezing in Nov, Dec and Jan. So, I would say if your house gets colder than mine, it might take two of these blankets or blanket and quilt (or maybe a comforter). Sorry, I could not give a definite answer.

Jonathan, I'm afraid I don't know the answer to that question. I can tell you that I was very satisfied with the product and plan to use it again this year. I must add, that I live in East Texas, and we did have a somewhat mild winter last year. I hope this helps you make your decision as to whether or not you will purchase this blanket. Gloria Stakes

I have no basis of comparison to the $99.99 blanket, but we love our micro-fleece. I can't imagine why anyone would want a hotter blanket. I have never turned my side up to more than three, and usually I set it at 1 or forget to turn it on. My husband keeps his side at 4 or 5. The fabric is soft and fine to the touch. We do use a light cotton cover over the top to keep it clean, and surely that helps to keep in the heat. But we always have done this with electric blankets. This blanket is way nicer than any we have had before. /jgh

It's pretty warm although we use it with another thin blanket. Kept us warm here in Virginia during the polar vortex ;)

You may want to stick with the blanket Idea. I have not found a great option for mine either. Sorry for the bad news.

I just read in one of the reviews that the High Sierra Appalachian 2-Room Family Cabin Tent is the same tent under a different brand. It appears to be the same tent in green and blue (I have the Columbia). The manufacturers contract with Columbia ended in 2010, but they are smart to find another vendor for it. I see a very nice price of around $130 for this at some computer geek site. The Columbia lives up to it's reviews; we've camped worry-less in windy areas other people avoided, and did stylin'. Someone wrote the Sierra may have even better stitching.

Not sure on the price diff? If you can stay ahead of the snow, the shield will be an asset. If you have heavy snow or wait until it gets too deep, get the one without. I took mine of thru it on the ground and eventually destroyed it w/ my snowblower, however, I don't miss it at all. I DO recommend buying one of these though, they're amazing. (Not for metal roofs)

This one seems to be well built. I have had several large, heavy, wet blankets on mine with no trouble. I think you will be happy purchasing this one. It is a quality made item not like the junk from China.BL

It to me feels more light and would be appropriate for Spring/Summer use. Could be for winter time but you'd probably want another blanket over or under it depending on how cold your home gets. Hope this helps.

Why hasn't anyone answered this question?? I'm curious to know too why it's so much cheaper too?

i think because its thicker. i bought a cheap one at big lots and the difference was ridiculous ! The spasilk one was soooo much softer and the cheap one was very ridgid - i hope that helps !

The emergency blanket is less of a blanket and more of a tarp. It is much stronger and more reliable than the cheap mylar emergency blankets. it is basically a green tarp with one side having reflective material. It is not crinkly and loud like the cheap emergency blankets. It may be nice to line the floor of the dog house to warm it up, but I do not think it would be as cozy as a normal cloth blanket for nestling down inside. Hope this is helpful!

I don't know why the black one is cheaper and I only purchased the black one but the material was pretty standard fleece. Not too cheap and its held up well so far.

That info is not included in any of the info that came with it, sorry. The MOST DENSE one I found in my pre-purchase shopping was for sale at Macy's, and the incorporated cover is a blue weave, like the one section in the photo of THIS product. It was available in either 1.5 or 3 inch versions, the thicker one was offered for close to $600, and on a "one day sale" you could get it for 50% off, but even THAT was more than I wanted to spend, and too close to the price of a new mattress for me! But if you want the DENSE-EST gel, check that one out...it may even be on Macy's website, not sure. Good Luck! That info is not included in any of the info that came with it, sorry.

I'm not sure why it's less expensive. I would contact the supplier for that. The only thing I can think of is the 4x4 is more popular
