Q: Does this blanket shed? I purchased one like this from another vendor and had to return because it shed little blue fur pieces everywhere.
submitted by Concerned shopper - 7 years ago
A: Hi Concerned - These blankets are amazingly cozy, perfect for a quick snooze. We looked through guest reviews and didn't find any reference to shedding. We're pretty sure you're going to love this blanket. Thanks for asking. -Michael

A: I dont know why people are saying this sheds, I bought the coral one and Ive had it for a yr and a half and its never shed, it is however, SUPER soft and cozy, I highly recommend this blanket.
submitted byDralynn - 4 years ago
A: I purchased one today and washed it before using. There were no problems with shedding. I washed it by itself so it could float freely and dried it in the dryer until it was slightly damp. I don't know if that made a difference or if they have changed the vendor/manufacturing process. I'm thrilled because it is so incredibly soft!

A: I just bought this blanket, washed per instructions and now it’s completely ruined. Pills and balls of fluff all over it and it ruined my comforter with all of that mess. I paid cash and don’t have the receipt anymore and I’m so mad. It’s the WORST blanket ever made
submitted byAllison - 4 years ago
A: I genuinely dont know why people are saying these shed?? I've had 4 of these for about 3 years now and all have been washed multiple times with no shedding in the slightest. I'm even pulling on the fabrics right now to try to get them to shed and I cant. Maybe the others are washing them a little to harshly.

A: It sheds a lot. Initially I thought it was just the gray color that i purchased but I returned it for a white with gray stripes and it sheds too. I have only had it a week and have washed it 4 times to see if that would stop the shedding. It didn't stop. A waste of money and time. The blanket is soft and very warm but sheds too much

A: This blanket sheds so terribly that I am having to get rid of the rest of my bedding because it is covered in purple fuzz from this blanket and there is no way to remove it all. I would never recommend this blanket.
submitted byadrienne - 6 years ago
A: This product sheds a lot. You can wash in cold water and use a cup of white vinegar in the rinse cycle and this will help prevent pilling. Also dryer balls help to stop static on the blanket. It is soft but I don't think I will buy one of these again.
submitted byTermar30 - 7 years ago
A: I just returned one today! Washed once and the shedding was so bad that it covered everything, including sticking to the sheets. We have 2 of these blankets that we bought last year and they were perfectly fine. Perhaps the vendor changed the fabric to a lower quality?
submitted byKjH - 5 years ago
A: I bought this blanket recently and have tried to wash it as minimal as I can because it sheds so bad and it usually takes me over an hour to brush it and use a blanket shaver on it after washing. The piling is so bad no matter if I dry in cool air or warm air. I followed all instructions on how to wash it and it made no difference. I love the softness of this blanket, but it's just not worth the hour of work, and I mean work, to get it back to being soft and pile free. I will never buy this again.
submitted byPaula - 5 years ago
A: I’ve bought at least 10 of these blankets and they do not shed. I love them and am planning to buy more. They stay so soft and are a perfect weight for year round. Highly recommend.
submitted byKirsten - 3 months ago
A: I purchased this blanket September 15, 2023 and I washed it according to the instructions. It pilled a horribly and I thought maybe after a couple other washings, still according to the label and instructions, that it would be better. It is not. I am disappointed that I bought two, the gray one and the pink one and both have fuzzes everywhere. I should not have to roll my blankets and roll everything they touch. On the positive side, the blankets are extremely soft and cozy and the king size one is generously sized.

A: You are so wrong target team member....I have several of these..years ago they apparently were made better because now within the last couple years they really do shed !!!!
submitted byBoxer mom - 6 years ago
A: This blanket sheds so much that I can not even use it. I have washed it three times in one week since receiving it as a gift and have brushed piles of piling off of it each time. It has not improved. The second you get it on the bed again you can see the pilings again. My comforter set, pillows and sheets become covered in it. It made them look like they were dirty with pilings all over them. This morning I even woke up with the pilings all over my leggings and tank top. I honestly wish it was not a gift because I would return it. It really sucks because it is perfect in every other aspect. Large, soft and the perfect weight. If you purchase this blanket you might as well buy some stock in 3M because you will be buying lint rollers like crazy. Stay away. Disappointed with the quality from a Threshold Target Brand product.

Q: Is "hot coffee" a black or brown color?
submitted by ljackson - 7 years ago

A: Not everyone's color perception is the same, but I don't know why this one was labeled "hot coffee." Never mind the irrelevant "hot," it's not brown to my eyes, nor is it black. It's gray, just about the same as a young harbor seal's fur, and not the brown-black color of coffee.
submitted byShauna - 6 years ago
A: The "hot coffee" color is, in reality, a deep steely gray shade. It should have been called "metal" or "dove."
submitted bydoxiegrl - 3 years ago
A: It is dark grey. If you really want to stretch your imagination you could try to call it a very cool dark brown. If someone served me coffee or espresso this color I would wonder what was wrong with it.
submitted byrubypea - 5 years ago
A: I ordered the "hot coffee" and online it looks brown (which is what I wanted). Got it in the mail and its a dark gray! Very disappointed.
submitted byednor812 - 6 years ago
A: I was just in a store today and it is really a toss-up between dark brown and dark grey. I think it can reflect either that you are trying to match. I don't know how they accomplished that but it's a rich color--I like it. Get it--if it isn't what you want just return it.
submitted byRenee - 7 years ago
A: I just picked my blanket up and I can assure you that the hot coffee blanket is in fact not brown at all but rather dark gray. As the others who posted here stated, it’s a lovely blanket but disappointing to be misnamed entirely. Unless there is some gray coffee I am not aware of lol
submitted bySbdixon - 5 years ago
A: The “hot coffee” color has nothing to do with brown. It’s dark gray, period. Was very disappointed. Try going back and forth on the item on the web page between “hot coffee” and “espresso”. The picture never changes. Both just a dark gray. And I’ve never seen dark gray coffee and hope I never do. Back these go.
submitted byWill - 6 years ago
A: When I scanned the dark grey blanket in the store on my target app it pulled up the espresso blanket. Not sure what’s going on but the blanket looks like a charcoal grey to me.

Q: Hi, Has anyone purchased this blanket recently? I have read the negative comments about a shedding problem and am hesitating about giving as a gift. Thank you in advance!
submitted by Jennifer - 6 years ago
A: I bought two of these this week and I'll be returning them tomorrow because they shed and pil so horribly! I've washed them 3 times and used anti static sheets in the dryer and they are still a mess. In addition to shedding and pilling, the fabric threads rub off on any clothing which comes into contact with them. These should not be available for sale since after washing they shed and don't look good.
submitted byCatherineD - 5 years ago
A: I am retracting my negative review. The problem with the blanket is that there are not clear instructions on how to wash, other than cold water and low dry. It should include what not to do, such as: no heat at all, no fabric softener, you can place in the dryer but for only about 15 min, or air dry. this is what the manufacturer should have included. So many of us are in a rush to do laundry with busy schedules that we just take a short cut, with this blanket there are definitely no shortcuts. I have two, washed both, one dried first a was a mess, because I did not realize all the rules involving a plush fabric. Someone else on this feed mentioned all the don'ts which really helped. Thank you

submitted byDralynn - 4 years ago

Q: Does the manufacturer have any recommendations about the lint problem? Every time it is washed, there a ton of lint. It sticks to the blanket instead of going into the lint trap.
submitted by Veronica - 7 years ago
A: Maybe try using a few dryer sheets (instead of just one?).
submitted byRenee - 7 years ago
A: Wash it with cold water separately. DO NOT use the dryer, let it air dry or use the no heat setting. Use a lint roller as well. That should stop
submitted byBettitron - 6 years ago
A: Hi, Just commenting on a previous answer, but PLEASE DO NOT USE FABRIC SOFTENER OR DRYER SHEETS on fleece EVER!!! That, along with heat, will ruin it and make it pill and mat-down and look and feel awful really quick. Heat and fabric softener/dryer sheets are the enemy of fleece, not to mention it doesn't need to be "softened". Heat will loosen fibers and any type of fabric softener/dryer sheets will cause fibers to mat together, pill, and feel "dirty" or "coated".

Q: My dog seems to love this blanket as much as I do but unfortunately he sheds pretty bad. I read it is washable but was wondering if there are specific washing directions or can I wash it regularly?
submitted by Emily - 7 years ago
A: The previous answers are very clear: heat and dryer sheets will destroy the blanket. You may machine wash on COLD. It is recommended that you AIR DRY the blanket, but you can machine dry on the lowest setting for 15 minutes and then remove it and let it finish drying outside the dryer if you must, but WITHOUT A DRYER SHEET.

I have bought many of these blankets in the past few years for my kids beds. We all loved them! After getting worn out I recently bought a green one and it pills terribly! Got lint ALL over my sons sheets and pillow. Washed it and same thing. Returned as defective and bought a gray one, hoping a different color would do the trick. Nope! Terrible shedding! Wish I would have read reviews and realized they must have changed their material! Sadly I'm going to have to find some other brand that we like as much as the old style!

I have 2 of these now. I was passing a Target to get to my bank and I saw a Woman holding one of these walking out of the store. I pulled over, went into the store and purchased one right there on the spot. This is now my replacement (due to a puppy). I will continue buying these until however long I’m able to purchase these blankets. I love these blankets so much and you will not be disappointed. Wonderful quality, washable, durable, very soft and beautiful colors. The only suggestion is to wash it before using it for the first time to get the extra loose fabric off otherwise it gets everywhere until you wash it once, then 11/10 blanket. I love coming home and laying down immediately on my bed because of this blanket.

We bought this blanket for a kid starting college last fall and we brought her home after the school year we found this blanket had shed thick layers of lint/pills all over everything it came in contact with (duvet, cover, pillows, etc.) I spent an hour or more with a lint brush removing the lint from all of these things and still found pockets of it when we put her bed together this year. Such a bad experience.

Horrible Pilling

Thumbs down graphic, would not recommendWould not recommend
Target Shopper - 27 days ago, Verified purchaser
When I first got these blankets ( I ordered two,) the blankets were very nice quality and very soft. I decided to wash them before I used them because I like to wash any textiles I recieve in the mail. I should have just washed one to see what would happen so I could return the other one because they came out of the washer and dryer extremely pilly. It left piles of fluff all over my other clothes and no matter how many times I wash these blankets, they dont get any better at ALL. I followed the care instructions and they say they are machine washable and dryable but that is a lie. I just wasted good money on the blankets that I cant even use because they pill that bad. I am going to try to return them to see if I can get my money back, but I know that since I have already opened and washed them that chance is slim. At least I can try to return them because if I can't, I am just going to have to throw them away anyway, which makes me super upset because not only did I waste my money, but now I have to throw away TWO new blankets and I hate wasting things. If you are thinking about getting these blankets, I hope you can take this review into consideration. I have bought microplush blankets from target before and they have not done this. I dont know if it is just this brand or what, but I am disapointed, to say the least, to have to throw out new blankets before I even got to enjoy them.

SHEDS. I have an older version, and I love it, but when I purchased this blanket to replace the old one, I found out that it is not the same. It sheds uncontrollably, and I couldn’t handle it. There are better options.
