It is actually softer! It has the chewable silicone corner. It is thick and squishy, just like my favorite kind of babies. It's super soft and the perfect size for keeping baby warm in the car seat. It has a fun inverse design on the back.

The design is cute and will cover the average toddler. It's great for putting on my lap while watching tv. The color is beautiful and neutral. It comes with a pretty white ribbon/bow.

Great quality. Great texture. Very happy purchaser. My only complaint is that i didn't buy it sooner!

It's not awful, but it's a bit scratchy. It will not last unless this is used strictly as a coverlet.

The orange color is very muted and unevenly faded right out of the bag. Upon opening i was assailed by a terrible odor.

This is marketed as a blanket. I have no idea how this happened, but i did notice some snagging on it out of the package.

For a $40 blanket, these kinds of issues are completely unacceptable. Can’t rate the other criteria since its currently un-usable. For the rest of us humans, probably not your best pick.
