Stay cozy when curled up on the couch with this lightweight Wraparound Comfort Throw from Pike Street. Fashioned with soft micro-suede on one side and microfiber on the other, the piece is soft, comfortable, and surprisingly warm for its light weight. Measuring 50 by 60 inches, it features a rolled edge, a stitched square pattern, and 12-ounce gel fiber fill. Far less bulky than a standard-size blanket, the throw folds up neatly and does not take up much space on a couch or chair. Available in attractive colors called Olive, Brick, Camel, Espresso, and Port, it is machine washable for easy care.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pike Street Throw - There are two kinds!, December 4, 2008

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: Pike Street Wraparound Comfort Throw (Kitchen)

I just recieved my new Pike Street throws I bought in the Black Friday sale for $9.99. I also have the previous version which was sold 2006/2007. The reviews of this time period, of which I am one with 5 stars, were for the original throw. They were packaged in a white plastic bag. They were 50 X 70 inches. The new throws come in a clear plastic zippered bag and are 50 x 60 inches. The new throw colors have different names: Camel, Olive, Espresso, and Brick instead of Beige, Green, and Chocolate. If you see throws with the old names, I believe they will be more expensive. The new throws have a small rolled edge instead of the flat stitched edge. The stitching across the throw to make squares is farther apart in the new throws, making the squares larger. This could cause bunching after washing but I haven't washed them yet and cannot say for sure. The top 'suede-like' top fabric feels the same as the original throws and I find it very soft and appealing. The underside fabric is not as nice in the new throws. It is thinner and slicker. The old throw's underside fabric was more textured, almost slightly fuzzy feeling. I like the feeling of the old ones much better. I recieved the Camel, Olive and Brick and compared them to the Beige, Green, and Chocolate old throws. The thickness of the throws and the feel of the insides are the same. There is a slippery feel when you squeeze the insides between your fingers. I assume this is the poly-fill and the 'gel' that is supposed to be inside.

So, it boils down to two different throws. The new ones have rolled edges, less stitching, a less pleasant (but not UNpleasant) backing fabric, and is 10 inches shorter. I rated the new throws 4 stars instead of 5 because of the smaller size and less pleasant feel.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Nice for the Price, December 13, 2006

By	Kris (Michigan) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pike Street Wraparound Comfort Throw, Green (Kitchen)

I was somewhat disappointed when I first opened the package and discovered how lightweight the throw was. I live in northern Michigan and had hoped for something nice and warm to cuddle up in at night while watching TV. I must say, though, that after trying it out, I was pleasantly suprised at how warm it was. While not as heavy as I had hoped it would be, it is the nicest throw for the price I've seen and is perfect if you don't live in the frozen north (unless you buy two and double them up!). I bought 4 more for gifts and know they will be very much appreciated.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, December 23, 2006

By	R. Westling - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Pike Street Wraparound Comfort Throw, Green (Kitchen)

I bought one of these in Chocolate when it first showed up in the Gold Box deals (when they were still 10.99). I was so impressed that I immediately bought a bunch more as gifts. I also picked up a Beige for myself, and recently bought a Green (at the raised 12.99 price) to round out my collection.

The blanket is a bit thinner than I was initially expecting, but there is definitely down in it, and it's got stitching that keeps the filling from ending up bunched up at one end of the blanket. It folds up nicely, but fluffs up when you shake it, and is SO WARM and *incredibly* soft. It's a great size for snuggling on the couch or even for throwing over yourself at night if you get chilly in bed. Everyone who got one of these as a gift from me was just as impressed. It feels like soft suede on one side, and has a cloth-like feel on the other. The stitching is excellent, no loose threads on any of the ones I've received (two, plus three that I had shipped to me as gifts for office co-workers, and haven't heard about any problems from the others who I had them shipped directly to, though they all tell me they have to fight their kids for the blankets when they want to sit on the couch!).

While it's a bummer that the price was raised before the end of the sale date, and that they are sold out of the Beige and Chocolate colors, I still highly recommend this blanket. The Green is a little lighter than I expected (a little more of a sage color) - otherwise, the other colors looked just as I thought they would.

Even though the price has gone up, it's still a steal at only 12.99 - I've seen similar blankets in stores for three times this price, and they weren't as soft or nice looking. Even if Green doesn't match your decor, it's still worth it to pick one up even if you just keep it in the closet in case you get cold one night.
