Reviewing Everlasting's Comfort Cooling Blanket, one shopper said: "I bought this blanket for my partner after I bought one for myself last summer. They are so effective. We love them, so I would recommend them to anyone wanting a cooler, more refreshing sleep during the heat!"
A second buyer had mixed feelings towards their purchase, writing: "It is soft and lightweight. I'm a restless sleeper and it did not stay on me. I put it under me to try. Either way, at first, it is cool.
"Once my body is on it or under it, after 10-15 minutes, it retains my body heat if I don't move. Moving it collects the air, so to speak, and cools down, as long as my body isn't touching it. It does not help with hot flashes with me."
Another wrote: "This is the second blanket I've purchased, so we can have one in the kids too. It's lightweight and very soft. I like to cover myself with it when I'm having a migraine."

An additional customer concludes: "I would really like to give this an honest review, but my kids have stolen it and I can't get it back from them. They come in from school on a hot day and just wrap up in it for 10 minutes, which cools them down a treat.
"They've been sleeping absolutely fine in them and said they actually managed to sleep pretty quickly at night instead of the usual fidgeting due to how cool the blanket feels. It's nice and silky, performs well, but a little expensive, but as long as it lasts all summer, then it's worth the money."
