Jay Leno recently joked about the Snuggie in his monogogue. He ridiculed just about every feature of it. I had already ordered the two-for-one special (plus double shipping & handling) on the company’s wesbite, thinking it would be an ideal gift for my wife’s birthday. The website is very confusing and less than honest about what you are ordering. You are presented with several options (like a heavier fabric and faster shipping). It took almost a month to arrive, so my wife’s birthday was history by then. The fabric is very thin and about as warm as a bedsheet. There is no way to close the back of the thing, so my wife has to pull a blanket up over her shoulders. The reading light that is the “free bonus” isn’t useable since it only illuminates a small spot on the page. So, like one of the other reviewers…and Jay Leno….said, just put your bathrobe on backwards!

I bought a Snuggie from Bed Bath and Beyond for $10 and no shipping because I went to the store. So that right there saved me $15. I don’t find the blanket very soft at all and it is thin. Basically it’s a cheap large robe with no tie in the middle that you wear backwards. Now I feel silly buying it.
Don’t buy it for the book light either. I am a night time reader and this book light only highlights a small paragraph on a very small novel. It doesn’t adjust at all which I thought was weird.

Don’t waste your money. This company is a joke. They were and have been backordered for quite some time, but they just kept advertising on TV all through the holiday season.
I agree with another reviewer that it’s too easy to make a mistake when ordering on the company webite. I thought I was doing a mock order to see the final price before actually placing the order, but no. It placed the order immediately, and I couldn’t cancel it because you have to input your credit card info first. (Also, that second one for “free” isn’t – they charge you additional s/h, so instead of $20, you actually pay $20 + $8 + $8, for a total of $36. Each one is then more like $16 instead of the $10 you think you’re going to pay.) After “ordering,” I received an email with an order number, but later found that I couldn’t check on the order status with that order number. I had to use my email address. I placed that order on Dec 1st, and 5 weeks later I still have not received the order. I have called 3 different numbers for the company, which by the way are hard to find on their website. All three numbers are answered by recordings and do not allow you to leave a message. I have found no way to cancel the order, though I’ve tried everything I can think of. Oh yeah, two of the phone numbers are CELL PHONES. I got Verizon recorded messages telling me that the phone lines were unavailable on several occasions. As far as I can tell, there is NO WAY to reach a live person for customer service.
Save yourself the aggravation. Don’t buy this item from this company. Go to Bed Bath & Beyond or another local retailer and buy one like it there. Or buy a large fleece throw blanket, get some snaps from a sewing shop, and make your own. That’s what I wound up doing! It was super easy, and way less than the online order.

I bought one at Bed Bath & Beyond also. I thought I was getting a deal, but I am out the $15 I paid for the snuggie. My wife did not like it. It is not heavy enough to keep you warm like the TV ad. We opened the “free” book light so I am unable to return it to BBB.

The material is pretty cheap and thin, you probably are better off putting on your bathrobe backwards. Its ok if you are sitting down with back support because your back exposed like a hospital gown….at least hospital gowns have ties in the back.
The arms are like bat sleeves so doing some things may be awkward. I had a hard time trying to grab the remote, it was slipping in the sleeves.
Its not the WORST product in the world. It might be nice for someone who will just sit in a chair and not move around too much.
If you insist on buying it at least go find one in the store first and see how thin the material is to see if its fine enough for you.
