The softest blanket you will ever own!
Essential Blanket Review: tl;dr 10/10, softest blanket you will ever find, softer than the waffle blanket, truly “essential” to own. Read the full review: I’ve never owned a 100% cotton blanket, but have used them when I was a guest at hotels or other homes. Those blankets were functional but nothing special. I ordered B&B’s essential blanket because it was the only blanket available in Hydrangea (at that time) & I wanted a full set in Hydrangea with sheets, a duvet cover, & a blanket. (The color Hydrangea is THAT good. ) I was SHOCKED when my blanket arrived! The blanket is beautiful! The color is gorgeous and it has tight stitching, a substantial weight, & is expertly sewn. It is oversized and hangs nicely over my Queen bed. What really impressed me is the hand-feel — the essential blanket is the softest blanket I have ever felt, ever owned, will ever own! I see now why Boll & Branch named this blanket the “essential blanket”. Essential means “absolutely necessary; extremely important”. This blanket is all that and more. It is a blanket that will last forever and is worth every penny! I have since purchased the new Hydrangea waffle blanket, and while its texture is amazing, and will likely soften with each wash, the essential blanket is soft beyond compare *right out of the box*. Buy one in your favorite color, you will be glad you did! It makes every night more pleasant. Just feeling the softness of this blanket lulls me to sleep. FYI -I live in California. This, paired with a lightweight duvet, gives me the extra warmth I need during our “cool” months when it is 70 F or lower. I think I will be able to use it even when the weather warms up, and I can see myself pulling it off the bed to curl up with on the couch. One of the best purchases I have made! Thank you B&B for making such gorgeous, high quality bedding! Xo

Beautiful Color
Beautiful blanket but arrived with a pull in it. I would have returned it but knew my cat would eventually do the same thing to it. I love the color but do not recommend if you have a pet that will sleep on it.

Essential Bed Blanket - Hydrangea
Just love this blanket. And it is always boxed so well and shipped promptly. This is the 2nd Essential Blanket I've purchased as I love them so much. They wash up beautifully and are so comfortable. My only disappointment is how my 2 cats have gotten their claws stuck in the blanket and have made marks getting their claws out.
