Premium Version Of The Snuggie...
I have to admit up front that I don't own a "Snuggie". I have a neighbor that does. Once I found out that I actually knew someone that had one I could get up close and personal with, I politely asked if I could check it out. My impression of a Snuggie is that it is really nothing but a fresher, more modern and colorful version of what we have seen all those Monks on TV and in movies wear for what seems like centuries. A really big comfy blanket with a hole in it for your head and arms that will cover and protect us, as well as allow us to walk around and take the thing along. Next time you see a movie with an order of Tibetan or any other kind of monk, look closely at their apparel. They are all wearing Snuggies that were popular centuries before they became fashionable with us.Unfortunately I have to say that any resemblance to the quality of what those Monks wear to a Snuggie ends at the styling. I was not at all impressed with the Snuggie. It was big and comfy enough. But it was very obviously made of a cheap thin fleece that had only two futures foretold for it. Either never wash it and allow it to get filthy and very unbecoming over time, or, wash it on occasion and see it "pill" itself to death. The Snuggie in my opinion was not even worth the very cheap price that it is available for in many outlets now. Not when there is a premium quality version of the Snuggie out there that is as heavy and as soft, and as quality made as to make any Monk start shopping on Amazon.I bought this burgundy Slanket for a lady in my life that is forever cold, and still lives under the delusion that oil cost the same it did back in 1958. At 95" it may be rather long for her, but she has no problem effortlessly walking around in it, and, also adores the length for she can wrap herself up in it anywhere, and in any position. The Slankets quality is everything the Snuggie is not. The thickness and softness of the fleece is evident from just feeling it for the first time, and more importantly, for those that actually plan on washing it on occasion, it's obviously of a quality that will resist pilling for many, many washes to come. I can only tell you that my adorable lady does a lot of sewing and makes her own clothes for herself and others on occasion, and knows fabric and its qualities, or lack of them very well. She not only impressed with her Slankets quality and its being extremely warm and comfy, but more importantly, she has begun to pass by the thermostat here lately without making her usual mandatory stop. This Slanket is for real folks. If you are tossing around the idea of a Snuggie, do yourself a favor and spend a little more for this baby. Believe me it is worth the extra cost. Whether you're a man or a woman, it should fit you nicely and comfortably, no matter how big you are. I highly recommend it for the frozen loved ones in your life...

Slanket Review
The Slanket was pretty much as advertised. It is cuddly, warm and very comfortable. It's a well made product although as it is only a slightly modified blanket, it's not very complicated. Before choosing it I read a review that said it was much higher quality than the Snuggie. This I would disagree with as I bought one of the latter afterwards and found the plush of similar thickness. Also it had some extra features like pockets that I thought made it even nicer AND its cost was less than half the Slanket. If I had it to do over I would have done more comparison shopping.

Wonderful Warmth
This is a great product. I tend to be warm most of the time, especially in my home. My wife, on the other hand, is often cold. This difference frequently becomes a bit of a problem. I usually turn the temperature up, but become drowsy and sluggish.So I purchased the "Slanket Blanket" for my wife. This blanket has made a real difference. The moment I presented it to my wife she wrapped herself in it and praised it. She is now warm and cozy, and I turned the temperature down in our house. She is comfortable and so am I. I love it.The "Slanket Blanket" is made of excellent material. When I examine it, I see the same quality as the blankets on my bed. The Slanket with its design (like a coat with arms and collar) is easy to wear. I highly recommend this product.

Cute enough...
I will say this, My girl loved it.But I do have one suggestion before you gift or use this item...WATCH OUT FOR STATIC!!! Use an anti-static guard or detergent on this before use or else you will be zapped!The night I gave it to her I woke up at about 2am and it was pitch black in the apartment. I grabbed that by accident and put it on and it was a painful fireworks show of static electric sparks!!Otherwise, after that, its been a good experience...

RIP OFF!!! NOT A SLANKET!!!!!!
I ordered an actual authentic Slanket a few months ago and loved it. I sought to order a second one and searched on Amazon. I chose the listing on top--"The Slanket Blanket- Adult Blanket in Ruby Wine" offered by Amazing Tech Depot through Amazon. Shipping was slow, but eventually I received the package. Inside was a cheap imitation of the lesser product, the snuggie. It was a small, thin, wrap--similar to an airline blanket. Of course, there was no authentic Slanket logo embroidered on the sleeve. Looking back at this ad, I can see that the folks at Amazing Tech Depot took a few seconds to crop the large Slanket logo out of the original Slanket photo that they plagiarized to sell this crap, however the pictured model is clearly wearing a Slanket, and has the Slanket logo on her sleeve. This is outrageous, and this ad should be taken off immediately in my opinion.

Slanket: The thinking man's snuggie!
Fantastic item! I hate how much I like it.My friends and family make fun of it BUT then want to use it when they come over. This is a blanket made from THICK fleece that washes well. Pet hair, lint, and crumbs don't cling to it and the fabric doesn't pill.The length is long enough to keep your toes warm even if you move a bit. The arms are big and long so you don't feel constrained. It is also wide enough to use as a regular blanket. It's my favorite thing to curl up into when hanging out on the couch in winter.

worth every penny, spend the extra for a slanket
Bought this for my wife as a Christmas present, decided to spend the extra money (cause my sweetie is worth more than just a snuggie) and I'm really glad I did. She absolutely loves this thing, so much so that I've actually been chided for even trying it on. And I have to say it is comfortable too. It's the ultimate in couch potato lounging. Perfect for the winter days when you just want to sit back and watch some movies.

Cozy and warm
I love this cozy blanket. It is warm and has enough fabric to wrap up in front of the fire. I do a lot of handwork so it is nice to stay warm and have my hands free. My only suggestion, the fleece is not as soft as I had hoped. I used extra fabric softener which helped.

Gemütlich, warm und praktisch.
Perfekt für alle Frostbeulen. Hervorragend für ein gemütlichen Abend auf der Couch, egal ob man einen Film/Serie guckt oder an der Konsole zockt.

Slanket
L'ideale nelle fredde serate di inverno per stare comodamente al caldo sul divano a leggere un libro o guardare la TV. Il materiale è leggero e caldo allo stesso tempo, adatto per tutte le stature almeno fino a 1 metro e 90

nicht kuschelig
Hatte die Slanket nach dem Weihnachtstrubel bestellt und Dank Hermes (Lag über 1 Woche in Hannover herum ..) viel zu spät bekommen. Tasche geöffnet und ...... Sah aus wie eine 10 mal gewaschene Decke - nix flauschig und weich oder gar kuschelig.Wir haben schon früher Slankets als Geschenk bestellt, aber nie eine derart schlechte Qualität gesehen - Restbestand oder Slankets sind nicht mehr dass, was sie einmal waren.Ist direkt unausgepackt zurückgegangen, denn fast 50€ für eine mäßige Kusnstoffdecke ist schon recht viel ...

tessuto di scarsa qualità
Il tessuto era estremamente sintetico, senza la morbidezza che di solito contraddistingue la coperta avendone regalate diverse, quindi l'ho rimandato indietro
