Throw is super soft. But, it definitely doesn't qualify as a blanket. I doubt some people would even know what the graphic is unless told what it is. I could not use it for what I bought it for, but kept it to use here on the couch, or as something extra to fend off a chill in the house. Will definitely not be useful if it's COLD. Good size, super soft, but is thin. Haven't washed it yet. Remains to be seen how it holds up to laundry.I purchased this as my son really wanted it. It was very over priced for the quality. I have purchased much higher quality fleeces at Marshalls for under $15. It is much thinner than I would have expected and I wish the design was printed in the other direction so that it matched the similar duvets that they have. That being said, their designs are unique and contemporary which is their only saving grace.The actual product does not match the picture. The picture has rich jewel tones and the product was much lighter with almost a pale neon look to it. Not a good look and very misleading product picture.Flimsy, thin, low quality and unimpressive are few words that come to mind. Would not like to pay even $10 for it.The blanket is very soft and colors are quite vibrant. Read the description carefully though because this is very small!
