This item is extremely thin (think thin plastic film) and was already unraveled when I removed it from the plastic bag it came in. Still, I decided to give it a try based on the great reviews here. After a few hours, more unraveling at the ends, formation of what will be pills (there are some already on it but I think of those more as character of the item), and many fibers sticking to it. On the pro side, the color is beautiful and it is warmer than it looks .
