5.0 out of 5 stars On the pricey side, but worth it, December 26, 2012

I was skeptical with the product, especially with the claim on the aloe vera benefits, but after years and years of suffering dry and itchy skins in the winter, I decided to give it a try. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised by its quality and its presentation when it finally arrived.
This blanket is very soft, and it seems to have been made from quality goose down that's also very soft and bluffy. (I also recently made a purchase with Groupon for another down blanket, but had to return it right away because the its fillings contain lots of feathers instead of down, and you could feel the prickly hard feathers on the other one.) It is also quite warm, which has allowed me to turn down the heater a couple notches with an unexpected side effect of having a lower energy bill.
Overall, my skin no longer itches after a night's sleep with this blanket. I don't know how well the aloe vera coding is good for, but the manufacturer claims it's good for at least 30 washes, so I guess it will be fine for many winters to come.
