I bought it to throw on in a chilly office environment and it's nice because it's basically an oversized blanket. I like that it's reversible and that it's a thicker material but not too thick and my arms can still move freely when at the computer. I think my only gripe is that it smelled really strange coming out of the package but I'm hoping it will air out the smell will go away, since it probably shouldn't be washed based on the material.
