Nice blankets.  I expected them to be a little bit softer but with a sheet set you don't even notice.  I washed them and they did well with minimal shrinkage.  I purchased two.  One king and one queen.  both fit my bed with overage on both sides even after washing.  No unusual odors to deal with either.  I don't like fuzzy blankets so this was a very good price for a cotton blanket.  I live in the south so a heavy blanket isn't needed except in the winter and I use a down comforter for that.
