Title: Not what I expected, but useful in emergencies
Product review: I bought this blanket based on the description and photo here on Amazon. I was looking for an emergency blanket to keep in my car, and from the description I thought this was plastic/tarp on one side and flocked/fuzzy on the other (the description mentions wool). Instead it's a plastic tarp on one side and reflective/mylar material on the other.I like that it has grommets on the corners, so it can be tied down as a shelter. I like the size of it, which is plenty big enough to keep a couple of people warm and dry. It's also much tougher than a standard space blanket, so it's not just a one-use item. I'm disappointed that it's nothing like a blanket on the back side of it, but the reflective material will work too.I think it's a little overpriced, at $18, but I'm not going to return it. Instead I'm going to get a couple of old blankets at a thrift shop, and add them to the car with this tarp.
