2024 Barefoot Dreams Blanket Review: Worth It? Or Simply Over-Rated?

So you’ve heard about the coziest blanket on earth but can’t quite understand it until you read a Barefoot Dreams blanket review. I’m right there with you!

I will admit that I was flabbergasted when I first heard about the price of the blankets in the Barefoot Dreams CozyChic collection.

You want me to pay how much? For a blanket? That isn’t weaved from gold?

Sure, that might be pocket change for the Kardashians and Chrissy Tegan – known to be huge fans of the brand.

But some of us don’t have deep pockets and live off what we earn daily!

Dropping upwards of $150 bucks for something you can get at Target for less than $10 bucks seemed ridiculous.

The more I read about the softest blanket, the more I thought that this cozy blanket might be a worthwhile investment.

After all, we spend so much time snoozing in bed or snuggling up on the couch, so we might as well do it in comfort and style, right?

 Yes, I ended up scooping up the $$$ Barefoot Dreams CozyChic cardigan. But a comforter?

Let’s discuss some of the key features of this luxury blanket and comforter to see if it lives up to the hype in this blog post.

Sizes and Quality

You can pick up a BD plush blanket in various colors and patterns. The standard size for most Barefoot Dreams blankets is 54 x 72″.

So whether you like to have your own or prefer to share, you’ll certainly find one big and fluffy enough! The blanket comes exactly as expected from a standard large rectangular blanket.

Need this cozy must-have for a baby? You’ll love the CozyChic Ultra Lite Plaid Baby Bundle.

Some have tassels or other additions, but what you see is what you get. 54×72 inches of pure perfection!

Regarding quality, we can’t expect anything less from Barefoot Dreams.

To put things in perspective, my BD CozyChic Lite cardigan is a must-have during the winter or when I travel for work in Alaska.

If this holds, then the quality of blanket you’ll get from Barefoot Dreams will rival none.

Yes, you can get a comforter for a cheaper price, but it won’t feel the same.

Material

You would expect them to be made of cashmere or something at this price, but no! Every blanket in the CozyChic range is made from a hundred percent polyester microfiber.

You might ask: Why are Barefoot Dreams blankets so popular if they’re hugely expensive yet made of synthetic materials?

Unfortunately, millions of other fans worldwide exist, and I don’t have the answer to this question! But I can tell you that this is, in nine out of ten cases, the softest throw blanket you’ll find anywhere.

It’s practically impossible to describe the appeal of their softness. You have to get your hands on one of these microfiber blankets.

Trust me, it isn’t just influencers who fall in love with them because they have been paid to; these babies are popular for a reason!

Super soft blankets and comforters were a top seller among LPV readers because they make an amazing gift for family and friends.

Colors and Styles – Are There Plenty To Choose From?

Now, BD has you covered with a hugely versatile range of cozy comforters. There are so many different colors and patterns available regarding blankets and throws.

Soft neutral and pastel tones, bright, bold shades, funky checks, spots, stripes… just about anything!

You’re sure to find one to suit any aesthetic. Love print? Try the leopard blanket!

Disney fans will be thrilled by the range of stunning snuggly options, from Frozen, Cinderella, and Toy Story to Dumbo and Bambi – they’ve even got some Minnie and Mickey designs to choose from, including the classic mouse ears logo.

The In The Wild blanket is one of the most popular 100% polyester blankets.

This plush throw blanket is huge and adorned with leopard print (and much-hyped by Chrissy Teigan!).

Maintenance – How Hard Is Keeping It Cozy?

At this price tag, it’s safe to ask all these questions: do Barefoot Dreams blankets wash well? Are they easy to take care of? Will they last for a long time?

You’ll be pleased to know that you can machine wash your CozyChic blanket.

According to the Barefoot Dreams website, throwing your BD products in your washer is safe, but they do not respond well to heat.

You should only wash your BD by throwing it on a delicate or gentle cycle with cold water and gentle detergent.

Likewise, don’t be tempted to use fabric softener (yes, really!) or any potentially harsh chemicals when washing your blanket, as this is guaranteed to compromise its supreme softness.

Barefoot Dreams also suggests that you stick to air drying their products.

But if you must throw it in the dryer, do so on the lowest possible setting and without a dryer sheet. 

Again, this is imperative to retain the ridiculously soft feeling of this blanket!

It’s also suggested that you always neatly fold your blanket when not in use to prevent unwanted pilling or stretching.

Where Should I Get My Barefoot Dreams Blanket?

Unfortunately, BD has been the victim of many counterfeit brands trying to profit from its success.

This means there are plenty of fakes across the net, and you must be careful to ensure the product you receive is authentic.

As explained in the ‘Authenticity’ section of their FAQs, you should only ever purchase Barefoot Dreams products directly from their website, www.barefootdreams.com, an authorized retailer like Nordstrom, Zappos, and certain Amazon retailers, or one of their verified brick-and-mortar stores.

Barefoot Dreams Blanket: Are They Worth It?

Yes, Barefoot Dreams blankets are worth it. If you have over a hundred and fifty bucks to spend on a blanket, then yes – they live up to the hype.

I couldn’t tell you why, but they are just so impossibly soft it almost feels illegal.

However, if possible, I highly recommend that you be patient and try to snag one during their #NSALE blanket sale.

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a great opportunity to score this blanket at a more reasonable price (though they still tend to cost more than the average blanket!).

Other FAQ About Barefoot Dreams

Why is Barefoot Dreams so expensive?

This is one question I’ve wrestled with the most.

Just as Lululemon commands a price tag of $98+ for a pair of leggings (that you can get for $20), Barefoot Dreams are the creme de la creme of cozy blankets.

You can get an alternative for $20 at Target, but you’ll never return if you try Barefoot Dreams products.

Conclusion: Barefoot Dreams Blanket Review

It’s no doubt that Barefoot Dreams blankets and cardigans are undeniably soft. You’ll feel like you’re cozily wrapped in a piece of heaven.

Although these microfiber pieces might be perfect for blanket weather, they can be used all year round in your living spaces.

And they are always a welcome gift for the person who has everything. The size of your BD blanket is large enough to be comfortably used by someone who is super tall.
