Rating : - Terrible Shedding
Thank goodness I dont have any breathing issues like allergies or asthma. I washed it before putting it on my bed, and it was shedding lint EVERYWHERE. So much that even though I have absolutely no breathing issues, I kept sneezing nonstop and had to literally throw the throw (no pun intended) right off my bed! It's a really soft blanket, but WAYYYYYYYY too linty! I bought it in the coral willow if that makes any difference.

I will continue to wash it every time I have room when I do laundry to see if the problem will subdue, but until then, I will not be using it at all. For this price, I rather have bought the microtec throw, also sold on amazon for the same price. I bought 3 of those, and the shedding wasnt nearly as bad as this one. (However hte microtec BLANKET itself in king size, leaves lint all over my sheets and duvet, but no sneezing there.... odd.)
