[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of those items that you hope to never need, but could save your life if you do. We had added it to our survival/first aid kit that I keep in my car and put in my backpack when hiking. A few weeks ago we were hiking in the snow and my husband slipped on an icy trail and twisted his knee. I couldn't get him back to our car alone on an icy trail, so I pulled this out to wrap around him while I went for help. This blanket kept him pretty warm in 25 degree weather while he waited about 15 minutes for me to return. I appreciated that it was bright orange, so he was very easy to spot. This is waterproof so he was able to sit on it and keep the snow from getting him too wet. I didn't expect that I would need to use it so quickly, but am so thankful that I had this. I recommend this for anyone who lives in a colder climate. You never know when you might need it.
