2.0 out of 5 stars
Near see-thru, static-charged Cuddliness, looks good from front, December 3, 2009
This could have been a good idea if the innovative design was implemented with some quality fabric. A better version is still possible or maybe someone already has it in the market. The Cuddly is basically a blanket with sleeves - you should know that, while the front looks in reality like the pictures and the TV show it, there's literally 'nothing' in the back because it's really a blanket. With sleeves. I knew that before ordering but what I didn't know was that it's a VERY THIN blanket. You can easily see through it if you place it against a light source. In fact, I just verified, you can see the TV screen through it. But, here are the specs: - 100% polyester - 71" long - 54" wide - 2 Cuddly Wraps per order - made in China I don't know if there are different kinds of polyesters but this one seems particularly apt at producing, storing and discharging static electricity and not everyone may be comfortable with that. I know that I am not because my skin prefers electrically neutral fabrics and it doesn't tolerate those that discharge little 10,000-Volt bolts with audible static crack noises when worn. The one good thing about the Cuddly is that it looks good from the front while standing up and posing for a picture, as the pictures show (it doesn't look so good from the back). On the other hand if you are going to wear it in a room that is cooler than average and if a static-charged, totally synthetic fabric against your skin bothers you then the Cuddly may not be such a good pick. We like to keep our living room a little cool in the winter and I don't like being zapped by my clothes every time I move so MY rating for the Cuddly is a 2-stars, meaning "I don't like it". _______________________________________ Note: If anyone is aware of a Cuddly-like garment made of quality materials, please leave a comment to this review.

Electrifying!!!, January 9, 2010
Okay... first, I gotta point out the elephant in the room. These fleecy wraps are full of static electricity. I guess it's the nature of the beast of the material, but YIKES! Not fun to get zapped by a bolt of wandering electricity when you're just moving your hand to change the channel on the remote. Happens a lot too. BUT on a high note, these little babies (you get 2 to a pack for the same price as one Snuggie in the stores around here) are nice and toasty warm. They're also LIGHT and easy to move in. I got my mom and niece the blue ones and they're in love with them (often fighting off the cats that also seem to love them too), and got my husband the brown ones. He keeps one at his computer and while he plays his computer game, he puts it on and thinks he actually IS a "monk" like in his game. Silly man. He keeps the other one by the bed (where he gets zapped changing the remote, but I've already told you about that). The pros off this wrap -- price, comfort and warmth factor -- far out-shadow the cons (static electricity!!!). So if you've read this far, thank you and I'd like to recommend this product to you. I think you'll agree it's worth the purchase.

May the Warmth Be With You ..........., November 29, 2009
Love this "hands free" blanket. Great for the couch potato. I just lay it over my body and slip my hands through the sleeves and voila! Keep yourself warm and eat your popcorn without any unwanted drafts. 2 in a package at this price seems like a good deal to me compared to some of the others they have out there. If they ever add a hood to this thing, the brown ones I have can double as an Obi Wan Kenobi costume. Watch Animal House with these on and you got instant Toga Party outfit! Just take one sleeve off, wrap it around and use a safety pin. Keep warm and have fun!
