Faribault NASA Cotton/ Outlast Material Blanket

The blanket actually does what it's advertised to do.....regulate body temprature while you sleep. I've had issues with waking up soaking wet in the night, removing my blanket and then freezing to death because I was cold - never mind the arguments with the husband who is ALWAYS cold! The blanket keeps us both comfortable. My 3 year old is a lot like me, so I'm ordering one for her bed too. The only drawbacks are that it isn't a very "pretty" or "luxurious" looking blanket. And, it can be kind of stretchy so when making the bed in the morning, I have to take the whole bed apart to get the blanket even across the top.

Just got the blanket yesterday, slept under it last night, and ordered another one today for my mother. It's very soft, lightweight, and pretty. I was skeptical that it would be warm enough, but it was great. Any blanket that keeps me cool enough and my husband warm enough..is a miracle blanket. It's very thin, but it's perfect for summer nights and I didn't find myself fanning the covers like I usually do. I'm very pleased so far.

We've been using this blanket for about a month now and notice no difference between it and our regular cotton blanket. Here in the southwest, nights currently start in the 60's (and we're warm) and end in the 50's. We find we need to use a light woolen blanket on top of this cotton one because without the woolen one, by morning we're too cool. So much for a temperature regulating, space-age cotton. It is a very nice, light-weight cotton blanket and we really appreciate the extra length. But we find our regular medium weight cotton blanket is more versatile.

This is a wonderfully soft, lightweight blanket that really does add warmth. It helped lessen the bulk on our bed in the winter while providing plenty of warmth with a sheet and a quilt. I really liked the look of the blanket as well. I also used it to wrap up on the couch one night and was toasty warm even though it was a much lighter weight than my fleece throws, but I was careful that my little dog didn't get his claws on it because it is an open weave and I didn't want him to pull the threads. It's stayed on the bed ever since so that there's not much chance he'll accidentally scratch it. Great blanket!
