Because we have the ceiling often used, we bought a new one. When this became a bit dirty after half a year, we have this time taken for cleaning. The result was despite compliance with all washing requirements the same as in the first ceiling: broken in and covered with lint, which make use impossible.
So if you want permanently retain a warm, soft blanket, should learn with the dirt which arises sooner or later on any textile, live.
Probably the manufacturer has recognized the poor quality. Otherwise I can not explain the sharp drop in prices. We had at that time in any case almost paid the original price. Real angry.
