    I ordered mine last week, and it arrived today and was not what I expected at all, as it goes over my head but is open at the back, so unless you're a size 8-10 it leaves a big gap at the back:mad:
    I thought it would just go over my head and be really cosy;)

    No, they're definitely meant to be open at the back - they're supposed to be a blanket, but with arms. They're all open at the back, the Slanket, Blankoat, Snuggie, and Freedom blanket.

  • I've just checked my account and it says cancelled item?
  • Despite the above, my order arrived this morning delivered by courier whose van had a bit of difficulty due to new snow so well done to her.

    Daughter currently wrapped up in one and the cats love sleeping on it too. Perhaps thinner than those that are more expensive but a pretty good buy for the money.

    It's great for a fiver.I got a real slanket for Christmas and this is nowhere near as thick, but still a great bargain. Thanks again OP :)

    mine said that i had cancelled too, so i rang them today, its not cancelled but its because i had opened another account in 2006? didnt even know i had? but they shut the old one down and still send out the blanket or whatever you ordered?
    so dont worry.
    hope this helps love laura

    I got mine on Thursday got several of them for use and presents

    Slightly disappointed at first due to them being left open at back and its quiet thin material but actually on reflection they not that bad and price isn't too bad, it would costs as much just for material

    My two kids and OH like there's and used it tonight. OH has it on bed as extra warmth
  • None left now it seems
