Pros and cons

What we like

  • Glows in the dark after 10 to 15 minutes under sunlight or lamp light
  • Officially licensed Grinch design
  • Holds up through up to 50 washes without fading
  • Soft, breathable fleece for couch or bed

What may bother

  • The glow fades and needs a fresh dose of light each time
  • Fleece is lighter than a thick winter blanket
  • Strongly tied to the holiday season and a single character

Our verdict

84 / 100

Is someone in your family a Grinch fan? Then this throw does double duty, couch warmth by day and a green glow after dark. It matters less for anyone who wants a blanket that is not tied to the holidays.

Best forGrinch fans from about nine years old through adults who watch holiday movies together on the couch.
Avoid ifSkip it if the person wants a neutral blanket for year-round use, since the design is built around one character.
