If you’ve been hunting the urban jungle for a mid-sized coverlet, the Palladium Animal Throw may be just the breed of blanket you’ve been looking for.

This throw is available in an exotic array of animal prints including Leopard, Zebra White, Zebra Brown and Lynx, the Palladium Animal Throw is the must-have catch of the season.

This blanket is ideal for lounging about the sofa on a winter evening or even taking onto the patio for a cool late summer night.

The Palladium Animal Throw is the perfect weight; not too thick and not too thin.

The top side features the wild animal print of your choosing, surprisingly soft and life-like despite its 100% polyester construction. Unlike most blanket throws, the underside is just as inviting and lovely as the top with a coordinating solid-toned lining and animal-print border with a smoother, less “fur-like” texture.

The overall size of the Palladium Animal Throw is more generous than many similar priced, similar styled bedding items. With an ample 50 by 70 inches of coverage, it can provide almost tip-to-toe coverage on a 6-foot tall person. Curl up in an over-sized chair and share the throw with a friend, or even toss across a smaller bed as a complete coverlet.

One of the unexpected treats of the this throw is that it is chic and stylish enough to just leave lying about; no need to pick up after yourself. Today’s top interior designers consider animal prints a “new” neutral, able to blend in with a kaleidoscope of seemingly incongruous prints and patterns. Any one of the four animal prints available would add an exotic and eclectic touch to your décor.

It is a good idea to run the it through the washer and dryer before your first use, as it has a tendency to pill up and leave little fur balls on the furniture and your clothes! After taking care of this little chore, you’ll spend countless evenings nuzzling up to this fashionable and not-so-fierce wild animal!

Generally priced at less than $115, this Cranberry Red Colored Feather Down Comforter is only available in two different sizes: queen and king.

Filled with a white down/feather blend, the 233-thread-count cover is down proof so that none of the feathers or down slip out.

The comforter is also non-allergenic, as it’s gone through a hypo-fresh down sterilization process.

Rather than just filling the entire cover, the down is put into smaller squares throughout the comforter so that none of them slip and build up to clump on one side.

The first things most consumers who reviewed the product online mention is that the down filling has no smell to it at all.

Generally, customers who bought the comforter were incredibly pleased with the product and say that it’s very durable and of a high quality. Many customers were surprised by how warm the comforter was since the price is relatively low compared to other down comforters on the market.

Customers describe the comforter as being warm without being overbearingly heavy. Some consumers were hesitant to wash the comforter, as they were unsure how the down would react. Others mentioned that the comforter made a plastic-like crinkly sound when you moved it, but said that it was still surprisingly soft.

Some people were disappointed that the comforter only came in two sizes, since they had twin, full or California-king sized beds.

On the whole, Amazon.com reviewers gave the comforter fives stars and said that the color was rich, the material was soft and the comforter was light yet incredibly warm.

Made from soft, silky materials, the Gund Dog cozy blanket
is machine washable and relatively low-priced as most stores and websites offer the blanket for less than $35.

Available in two different colors, blue and pink, the blanket appeals to both girls and boys.

Nine out of ten consumers who reviewed the product on Amazon.com gave the blanket five stars, noting that it’s the perfect security blanket for any young child who prefers something soft and snuggly.

Almost everyone who wrote a review noted that they liked the first one so much that they bought another just for the car or for their child to use while their original Spunky Comfy Cozy was in the wash.

Though some consumers said that they were worried their children would outgrow the blanket as they got older, many noted that their children started out using it as a blanket when they were infants and eventually treated it as a stuffed animal as they got older.

Most customers said that the blanket washed very well and was incredibly durable, but a few mentioned that after a couple years worth of washing, they needed to replace the blanket with another because it lost it’s softness.

Overall, every customer who bought the blanket highly recommended it to others who were buying for their own children or as a gift at a baby shower.

The only common issue amongst consumers was that they found their children became so attached to the blanket that it was difficult to take it away to be cleaned!

Available in seven different sizes (baby crib, twin, full, full XL, queen, king and California king), the Natural Comfort Waterproof Mattress Pad is hypoallergenic and treated so that it’s both anti-dust and anti-mite.

Filled with Hollow Fibre material, the mattress pad is machine washable and features a 200-thread-count top made from 100 percent cotton.

The price of the mattress pad ranges from less than $30 for the baby crib pad to a little over $50 for a California king pad.

The product has an extra deep pocket that will fit mattresses 20-inches deep and has a baking made of Polypropylene, which is supposed to be more breathable.

Almost all of the consumers who reviewed the Natural Comfort Waterproof Mattress Pad online praised it for being abnormally quiet, compared to other waterproof pads that are made of plastic and crinkle when touched.

Most customers found that the mattress pad suited their needs, but those with children who wet the bed complained the pad was not as waterproof as plastic mattress pads.

Another complaint a lot of customers who bought the mattress pad had is that it cannot be dried in the machine, which they were unaware of until they bought the product and got it home.

Though the mattress pad is very durable in the washing machine, many people who wrote reviews said that it took a very long time to dry, which can be quite inconvenient if you want to wash your bedding in a day to make it that night.

Overall, the majority of consumers found that the Natural Comfort Waterproof Mattress Pad was an ideal mattress pad for everyday use, however, one reviewer stated that fluid leaked through when her child wet the bed.  No other reviewers mentioned this.

While it does offer some waterproof qualities and is extremely quiet and so much softer than most typical plastic mattress pads, it may not repel the liquid quite as well as it should.

This vibrant bedding set features rows of colorful illustrations depicting planes, trains and trucks flying through the clouds or driving along city roads.

Made from 100% cotton, the Olive Kids Trains, Planes, & Trucks Toddler Comforter Bed Set includes 200-thread-count sheets (both a fitted and a flat), one pillowcase and a crib/toddler sized comforter.

Our research showed that online consumer reviews of the product were generally mixed.

While some feel as though the comforter is soft and the perfect thickness for warmth, others claimed that it was too thin and that they had to add an extra blanket to the bed so their toddlers weren’t too cold.

Though most customers raved that the sheets were very soft, many found that they were very wrinkly and some even had to iron the sheets and pillow cases before putting them back on the bed after washing. Despite the wrinkly sheets, many customers who reviewed the set on Amazon.com found that the sheets were incredibly durable and stood up to numerous washes.

Ideal for those with toddlers who are potty training,  many consumers say that the sheets never lose their softness and the colors do not fade even with repeated washing.

However, there were some complaints that images of the product pictured online could lead consumers to believe that the set fits twin beds, when it’s actually made specifically for a crib or toddler’s bed and this is stated in the product description.

The Olive Kids Trains, Planes & Trucks Toddler Comforter bed set offers good value for the price.

Perfect for those transitioning from a crib to a big kids bed, most parents say that the sheets’ and comforter’s colorful transportation scenes make going to bed at night less scary for their children.

And because Olive Kids offers several other products, from pillows and shams to wallpaper, that match the trains, planes and trucks print on the bed set, it’s the perfect addition to a transportation-themed room.
