The Eddie Bauer throw blanket that 'feels like it hugs you' is down to $14
'It looks like it's expensive,' wrote one of 7,000 fans. 'Will buy it again for Christmas presents!'
When the temps start falling, nothing feels better than snuggling up on the sofa or burrowing in bed. And to do that, you need one V.I.I. (very important item): an ultra-soft, thick, warm blanket. Lucky for you, we found just the right one to take your cuddling to a whole new level — and it's down to only $14! We're talking about the irresistible Eddie Bauer Throw, which is on sale right now at Amazon. Its plaid pattern delivers classic cabin vibes, and the faux shearling lining is so plush, our home writer Kristin Granero named it as one of her favorite buys to cozy up your home for winter.
This will become your go-to throw for staying nice and warm, at a price that won't leave you cold.
Why is it a good deal? 💰
This is the lowest we've seen this throw on sale for since the spring — usually the price hovers above $20. Plus, this blanket is reversible, so it's like getting two in one. When you compare it to similar throws, like this one from Ugg, it's a total steal. (Prices vary depending on color.)
Why do I need this? 🤔
This blanket looks like it belongs in a cabin in the woods — it's just right for the chilly months ahead and adds to your home's holiday look. It measures 50 by 60 inches, meaning you can share the coziness. One side is soft flannel in a white-and-black buffalo check and the other is faux shearling popcorn fleece. Consider yourself warned: Once you drape yourself in the sherpa goodness, you're not going to want to come out from under it until spring.
What reviewers say 💬
More than 7,000 five-star fans love snuggling up with this fuzzy throw.
Pros 👍
"Eddie Bauer products are quality products, but this blanket exceeded my expectations," reported a rave reviewer. "It was surprisingly beautiful and of high quality to the point that I purchased two more throws, one for each sofa. ... The colors are vivid and the sherpa is soft and provides comfort and warmth."
"I have bought several sherpa throws," shared another five-star fan. "But this one is wonderful! It's so soft and warm! It feels like it hugs you when you're lying under it. And it looks like it's expensive, but the price is perfect! Definitely will buy it again for Christmas presents!"
Attention, pet parents: "This blanket is so cozy, every time I put it on my three dogs fight for my lap and want to be on it," shared a buyer. "It is the perfect weight, not too heavy and not too light. It is very durable as well and washes up nicely."
Cons 👎
Just take heed when washing, according to this generally satisfied shopper: "I was considering giving this as a gift, but after receiving it, I decided to keep it for myself! The throw is very well made. It is very warm and cozy and the sherpa side is very soft. Be careful if you wash it with other things because the color bleeds ... I still am glad I bought it."
"I love this throw, it is so warm and comfy," said a final reviewer. "The only thing is, I wish it were a little longer, but that is because I want to use it on the bed [as] a blanket. ... It's great when curled up on the sofa watching TV or napping."
Did we mention the rustic red and black is on sale too?!
Prefer something even toastier?
Cuddle up with this top-rated wrap, which is made of soft flannel and has three heat settings. At 50 by 60 inches, it's large enough for two, and if you're worried about falling asleep, don't be — it turns itself off after four hours.
"I lost my job and had to keep my electric and gas costs down by keeping my apartment at 55° in the winter, and as a result, I was obviously very cold," said one reviewer. "This heated blanket saved me. It's so comfortable and soft and I didn't need another blanket with it, just had it under my comforter. Uses very little electricity and warms up quickly. Also, it warmed my whole body so I didn't even need gloves or a hat."
