Packable Down Throw Blanket

**Underachieve** · 02-04-2017, 00:13

Has anybody tried the "Packable Down Throw Blanket" from Bed Bath & Beyond? If so, can you guys compare it to the Costco Double Black Diamond Throw Blanket? warmth, comfort, etc...

Additional question: Can anyone weigh them both and compare? I want to know if one is stuffed more/less than the other.

I have the Costco version, but not the Bed, Bath one. From the websites they're the same size; the Costco has 700 down fill, while the Bed, Bath version is rated 650...

I am finishing up an uq today that is made from two bed bed bath and beyond quilts. I added no see um baffles between the quilts and am hoping to get down to the 20s with it. I have a post in the DIY section.

Are you going to add down between them or something? The added baffles will do nothing to it, otherwise. I do have two UQs made with two CDT'S that are modular and have had them down around 20. Outer quilt I seam ripped the vertical seams for horizontal tubes. On the inner I ripped the horzontal for vertical tubes. Connected with kam snaps. Stayed plenty warm. Think I could push it down to 10*f at least. Without adding any additional down.

I actually added .6 oz to each tube.

I just bought two B,B,&B throws for 19.99. Did you add down when you did the above work? If so, how much? Do you know if there are videos about this?

What are kam snaps was thinking of doing the same thing or getting 3 and putting all the down into 1 and add a little length also.
