This is an excellent poncho liner, it is thicker and larger than the Chinese reproductions available. It's twice the money, a little pricey but glad to find a good replacement.

This blanket is very light weight! If you want something that will keep you warm in 55° weather over night this will work. The stitching is good, very tight and consistent my blanket came with no loose threads. It is about 25% thicker then my cheap China made woobie and has the same dimensions. This woobie is way softer and smoother more like a sleeping bag material. Light comes through the blanket very easily. If that's something you are wanting to know. It's about 20% warmer then the $20 woobie. But as I see it the quality is about 80% better. Is that worth $100 instead of $20 I don't know. But it helps the blind so I think that counts for something. It's very comfy to sleep in. The wind comes through the stitching holes at the seems. Water is able to pass through this supposed waterproof blanket. The material is water repellent but the holes where the thread goes through the fabric let water in. I tested it in my kitchen sink. The dampness of the blanket dried fast though. All in all a very nice piece of gear.

Since long being a woobie fan I decided to order the real deal (I do not like surplus!)
This is my tenth woobie and definitely thicker and warmer then the previous ones!
I was ill yesterday and the nap with the new woobie helped my recovery!
Some of my previous woobies have zippered aperture for the head (to wear as a poncho) and zippered closure on 3 sides...this might be a convenience but, to someone who is used to use the woobie diagonally, managing to get 2 layers when wrapping, it is ok.
I can't testify for the longevity... I never had the slightest problem with any of my woobies from Miltec (1), Draggon Unlimited (6), Snugpack jungle blanket (1) or Nano puff blanket (2)...but I am careful with my stuff, I do not smoke, I protect them with at least a plastic garbage bag as underlayer from twigs or rocks, I do not spill beverages or food on them...
The only "complain" is that it does not come with a compression bag. I know that many people from military background do not use a compression bag but only dump it on the rucksac filling any little space and that helps preventing ratling! As the main part of my sleep system for 3 seasons, I prefer to have it on the outside and in a separate bag. Perhaps offering the option to buy the woobie with or without bag would be a good idea...

As a US Army combat veteran, I can assure that this is legitimate. I was issued a poncho liner (woobie) and unfortunately turned mine back in when ETS'ing from the service. I've bought numerous knockoffs from third party sites like McGuires and every time found I paid money for a piece of garbage. The price tag may feel a little steep but it was totally worth getting back my woobie that I know will last and stand up to use and some abuse, just like my woobie did for me back when I was in. From the higher quality fabric used to the level of detail in their stitching (10-12 stiches per inch) this has military quality written all over it. I wish I knew about this when it came out in 2021.

This blanket is made more for durability and longevity than it is for perfection in heat retention and comfort. In the end this is a military grade product that is exactly what our troops are issued to use in training and combat. It's a bare bones blanket just big enough to get the job done and with some features that make it more versatile than just being a blanket alone. The sole purpose of the woobie is to be a blanket that can attach to the inside of a soldier's rain poncho when opened up that can then be made into a makeshift sleeping bag.

Keep in mind that this product was designed and made for outdoor use that can stand up to some abuse and wear and tear. This is military grade and not consumer comfort rated grade.

Yep
