People who suffer with dust mite allergies need attractive blankets that can be washed in very hot water without any harm to the blanket, but they are often not easy to find. Polyester fleece blankets have been improved so much since they were introduced to the market many years ago that you would hardly recognize them now. Although the package directions say to wash in cold water, we have found with our own testing that the Berkshire Microloft fleece blankets, made with velour-like micro-plush fibers, do not shrink, pill or matt, even after repeated hot-water washing and drying. Unlike heavy wool blankets, these light-weight, all-season blankets can stay on your bed year round.  100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

•   Sandy - 4/20/12 6:02 am We've had these on all our beds for years, and they last for years. Have been washing them on hot since we bought them. Best blanket if you want to wash on hot to kill the dust mites. Definitely recommend.

•   mlc - 4/13/12 16:02 pm Very soft and lightweight blanket. I haven't washed it as yet, but from what I've read it seems to hold up well. We live in a desert climate and for those inbetween times when the weather is cool this blanket is just right in terms of weight and warmth. Oh, and did I mention how soft it is?

•   MARY - 1/16/12 18:54 pm This is the 2nd blanket I bought. I liked it so much and I was afraid they would be discontinued. I've had the first one for over a year and it still looks brand new, even though it's been washed weekly (cat fur). These blankets are very lightweight, yet warm and extremely soft. I also like them because they don't snag when my cats race across the bed. Wonderful blanket!

•   Fay - 12/23/11 15:48 pm The blanket is very soft and warm, but it is a little short to tuck it in at the bottom. Your description states that it can be washed in warm water, but the blanket's label states that it is to be washed in cold water. This was confusing directions and needs to be stated more clearly for people with allergies.

•   Katie - 11/9/11 10:07 am Received this blanket in the mail yesterday and washed it right away. It's very, very soft and there wasn't any piling. When I put it on my queen bed, I noticed it was slightly short in length- too short to tuck in at bottom of bed, but I could tuck it in on the sides of my bed. I was expecting the blanket to be a little thicker. I'm keeping it b/c it was a reasonable price and because it is so soft.

•   Camille - 1/16/11 19:00 pm This is the 2nd blanket of this type that I have ordered. I have owned the first one for 2 months and decided to buy a second. They were purchased to replace a down comforter. I have 2 that I have doubled up and am very warm. I wash them in 130degree water and they come out great, no pilling or bunching. They look just as they did before washing and are very soft. I highly recommend this product.

•   John - 10/26/10 13:16 pm This blanket is lite as a feather and keeps us toasty warm. It's easy to care for and does not cause any allergic reactions. Great buy and a well made product.
