Bahama Coast Bed Blanket - Tommy Bahama

Cup after cup of lint from two washings. Now I wish I had saved all the lint I removed from the dryer. I think it might be a health hazard--if lint is in the air and on our bed, we must be breathing it in. I guess I am going to donate it, but I am not sure that is the right thing to do to someone else. I am so very disappointed. It was the right weight and 100% cotton. It must be a lot lighter, though, now.

Bought this blanket and before putting it in the wash I went to shake it ... and a huge cloud of dust appeared... took the blanket outside and the dust cloud got bigger and bigger- it was insane, like someone had just covered it in saw dust or something. Uncomfortable about even using this blanket after washing.

Don't buy a blanket that is joint double/queen - way too small for a queen bed! I bought 2 and in my haste to get the beds made for approaching company, I neglected due diligence. Washed them in cold water, air dried and cut the tags off, then tried to make the beds. Either they were too small to begin with or they shrunk, I'm thinking both. I have standard depth mattresses and the blanket is still not wide enough to tuck in. Now I'm stuck with 2 blankets that I can't do anything with except donate.

Soft, supple, great quality. Nice hand and weight to be used on the bed in addition or separate of duvet.

I like sleeping with a nice, light blanket like this. Gives off a little warmth, but not smothering. Very comfortable, easy to make the bed with it, and looks great if you fold the comforter back to show the blanket underneath. Be Aware: the other reviews mentioning the excess lint in the dryer are 100% right. I recommend you dry it on relateively low heat (i.e., Delicate), and just run it on a 10-minute timer. Empty the dryer screen every 10 minutes until the blanket is dry. Probably do this for the first 2-3 times you wash it; otherwise the lint will likely get stuck in your dryer vents. Way more than you'd think there would be.

Love the color. Perfect weight. After washing, it fits my queen bed perfectly but might be a bit small for a king.

I bought this blanket to take the place of a similar blanket that was listed as a Queen but was more for a double bed blanket. When I first took it out of the wrapping it was a bit scratchy. After washing it was a bit softer.

Wasn’t sewn in three places all along hem. I shouldn’t have to sew a brand new blanket out of package. Expensive price, cheap quality. Disappointing for Tommy Bahama brand.

Well made 100% cotton blanket. Laundered excellently.

Perfect summer weight blanket!

Received this blanket two days ago, I was very excited because the quality felt amazing. Pulled it out of the packaging and instantly snagged one of the corners, tried to pull it back together and then washed it. Multiple snags all over now. Then I put it in the dryer and there was so much lint it was unbelievable. There was like 4 inches of thick lint in my dryer from this blanket. Super disappointed because I’ve been looking all over for a good cotton woven waffle blanket!

Not pleased. Washed and then it got all kinds of snags. Also, lots of lint while drying. I ordered the aqua color and it’s not even close to the same color as pictured. Not impressed

Beautiful thick blanket. Took it out of package, reviewed it. Perfect. One wash by itself and it had snags, runs. $60 for a snagged blanket. So much for that lesson. Cannot return and no refund. Very disappointed! Tommy Bahama is a premium brand and I expect a far better quality item.

I purchased this blanket in dark gray/ full size and I love the texture, weight for warmth, it fit well and wasn't difficult to wash (not too heavy for spin cycle) it also dried without sinkage. I highly recommend this item.

Leaves lint everywhere. Ran it through the air cycle in the dryer for 1 1/2 hours , had to clean lint filter out every 15 minutes it would get so full. Would not recommend this product.

I was very excited to find a cotton blanket. But, I was disappointed after washing it, exactly according to the instructions, and then washing it on low there was a tremendous amount of lint, But then when I put it on the bed, it had shrunk quite a bit. It is maybe the size of a queen blanket now, it is very soft but it doesn’t fit as it should, I have already washed it so can’t return it, I would have been very happy if it had not shrunk,

there's a nice weight to this item. it hasn't shed yet and it's been great to use on the bed or on the couch as an oversized throw

I’ve been looking for a blanket like this to put in between my quilt and my flat sheet for the added warmth in the winter as well as the weight. I tried a weighted blanket and it wasn’t for me but this is everything I hoped it would be!!! The weight of it is perfect, the texture is beautiful and it’s 100% cotton, which I love. I’m very much considering buying a second one just to have for movie nights on the couch and such. I also love that you can buy it according to the size of your bed and it’s not just a small throw. I will say this though ... when you wash and dry it, it does put off A LOT of lint! So be sure your lint traps are clear before and after. I was very worried I would take it out of the dryer with lint balls all over it but there weren’t any at all! It washes wonderfully. Just buy this blanket! You won’t regret it.

The stitches on this blanket are beautiful. If you like texture or detail, it’s absolutely stunning. The blanket is relatively light weight and woven. I’ve folded it down at the bottom 1/3 of the bed. Paired it with a cotton/linen duvet, faux fur throw, silk pillow cases...it looks LUSH. It was meant to be a “winter cover” (a relatively inexpensive layer between our duvet and our pets), but it’s absolutely beautiful. Also, love that it’s 100% cotton - super low maintenance. Cold wash, low dryer...bingo.
