Luxlen Offers Comfort And Luxury In One Cozy Throw

Comfort and luxury often go hand in hand and I love it when they do. There's nothing wrong with wanting to have a little luxury in your life and my husband has found it in our new throw.


The Luxlen Seasons Down Throw is exactly what he needed to feel some real comfort and he (and I) are enjoying the wonderful down throw a lot.


The throw is made for a super soft microfiber that feels so nice when you snuggle up inside it. It truly is so soft, you don't want to come out from under it. It measures 50" x 60" which is the perfect size for a good snuggle on the couch or living it up in the recliner. It is filled with down that is kept in place with a sewn box design over the whole throw, so it has lots of small squares filled with warmth from the down. it keeps you plenty warm but does not heat you up like microfiber blankets sometimes can. There is enough air floating around in each square that you stay just warm enough and comfy.



All the way around the throw the seams are well done. I didn't find any gaps or breaks in the stitching. It is really well made and I can see it being used by our family for a long time. It also comes in four beautiful colors, beige, blue, sage, and red.


We love this throw and I am pretty sure i am going to have to get another one, my husband won't give it up!

A Very Practical Blanket With So Many Uses

I'm so excited! Spring is almost here. The weather has vastly improved and soon I will be walking the beach of Lake Michigan and enjoying the water, finding treasures in the sand, and relaxing. One of the best things to do is sit on the beach and just enjoy, but it often involves the sand being just a little damp.


I was thrilled when I got the Practico Outdoors All-Purpose Outdoor Blanket! This is such a nice blanket and I know it will come in handy in a multitude of places, including the damp sand on the beach.


The blanket comes in two sizes, small like mine, that are 48" x 58" and large, 58" x 84", and come in black and grey in both sizes. The blanket has two distinctive sides. One features a reinforced polyester nylon backing for superior water and wind resistance. The other is made with extra soft 100% polar fleece that is fantastic at providing warmth and comfort. By super soft, they mean super soft. This is a very comfortable blanket to sit on or to cover up with.



Both sizes come in a nifty nylon carry bag that has a handle to carry it with and a toggle closure. Inside the blanket has a strap on it that also has a handle to carry it with that has a buckle hook that opens up. I also love that the blanket is completely machine washable and can go in the dryer. So easy to take care of that way! It takes literally seconds to open and use the blanket. it does not take too much longer to put it back in the carry bag either.



The uses for this blanket are super numerous. Since one side is waterproof and the other warm, it can be used to sit on or to cover up with. You can place half on a stadium seat and the other half over you to keep warm. You can keep this blanket in your car for an emergency. If you get stuck somewhere in the cold you can stay warm and dry. It's the perfect, compact blanket to carry with you to all kinds of outdoor events and activities, and if something gets spilled on it, you will know it is easy to clean.

We enjoyed trying this blanket out and know we will get a lot of use out of it. Many a picnic will be held on it. I think this is a great blanket to add to your wish list or to give to someone as a gift. It's very practical and useful!
