100% Cotton Waffle Blanket King Size, 108"x90" Pre-Washed Soft Waffle Weave Blanket for All Season, Lightweight and Breathable Blanket for Couch Bed Sofa, Light Grey

My supposed 100% cotton 108”x90” king size blanket in taupe just arrived a couple hours ago. With the warmer weather here I was eager to get it on our bed. I took it out of the package and noticed a slight smell, but more like plastic packaging smell and I was going to wash it anyway, so it didn’t matter to me. When I pulled it out I thought it seemed smaller than king size, so I checked the package and it said king. So assumed since it’s so thin and light weight that perhaps that’s why it seemed a bit smaller than I was anticipating. I washed in cold and dried on cool just like directions - I thought whatever helps this blanket not shrink much.. I checked half way and there was just a tiny bit of dryer lint, I was expecting to have to change frequently during its drying cycle as I head reviews about 100% blankets producing quite a bit. Then at the end I checked again and there was barely anything there. I was shocked, but very happy, maybe it didn’t shrink! So I proceed to put it on my bed and the tag catches my eye. - it says 100% polyester!!!! I am not happy because I wanted and ordered a blanket that claimed to be 100% cotton and received 100% polyester. I continued putting it on my bed thinking maybe I will be pleasantly surprised by this blanket and like it despite not being what I ordered.. when I notice that it is indeed quite a bit smaller than it should be. So I measure it. This 108x90 king size blanket is 95x90. I don’t understand how this is possible. If it’s 100% cotton and mislabeled polyester it would of shrink in width and length.. not just width and probably not 13” ! And if it’s 100% polyester and was actually 108x90 to start it shouldn’t of shrink any (polyester doesn’t shrink) so I think I received a polyester blanket that is 13” shorter in width than the description says. Needless to say- I’m not happy with this purchase at all.If you don’t care about polyester vs cotton, I would say the color is what I expected for taupe and it is very lightweight.

I have had a similar sheet for about 30 years - that I use instead of a duvet in hot weather. The original sheet is getting threadbare - so I bought this item, thinking the quality would be much worse. The new sheet is almost identical in size, weight and quality to the original. The fabric is soft and the "waffle weave" traps a small amount of air between me and the sheet. The result is I can sleep when the temperature is hot but I don't wake up cold in the middle of the night.

I was concerned this might not actually be cotton due to one review on here but it is 100% and label reflects this, hope that info is of use to anyone who has the same query. I bought this because I got covid and my partner and I had to sleep apart for my isolation period, ideal, super soft, not too thick (perfect for summer, if it were winter I’d just buy 2, solved), looks great too, I’ll def be buying again for extra blankets for the end of my children’s beds this winter.

Not what I imagined so will see in due course, thin. Unfortunatley as per photo there was a wood splinter and material debris wrapped inside it which isn't very professional for a new purchase.

This is a perfect lightweight summer blanket. The king size is super large and fits very ample all the way around the bed. I use it with an under sheet and is enough for the warm weather. Looks a lot more expensive in real life. Definitely going to order more.
