Reviewed by Leslie from Culver City on Thursday, May 09, 2013Apologies to the fundamentalists but this is one hell of a good deal on something we all should have a few of.

Reviewed by Raivyn from SoCal on Saturday, April 06, 2013Most of the reviews are by folks who have not even used this product. Yes, its great to have in the car, when camping, blah blah blah, but if you were in an emergency when you needed this, could you rely on it? I would say no. It's very noisy and quite thin. As a shelter in any bad weather, its not going to hold up. I tried using it as a ground cloth under my emergency tarp (yes, spend a few $$ and get a real one), and it constantly blew away and was easily punctured by rocks underneath it. I would rather spend a little more $$ and get a quality product that will be there when I need it rather than spend the money on this for the false security of being "prepared" and having it fail when I actually need it.

Reviewed by TV from Oakland, CA on Tuesday, February 12, 2013I have not had occasion to use this product yet. It looks like it should work just fine as a basic warmth retention device. They were far cheaper than what I could find locally so I bought enough to give to friends for their own emergency supplies. They are packaged reasonably well in that each is in a vented zippy bag so they are truly a "toss in the trunk/drawer/backpack" sort of item.

Ask a Question-
Question “Hi, is this a single use blanket, or tough enough to use a few times more?”
-
Answer You can use this multiple time, especially if you take care of it.
-
Answer These blankets are mostly for single use; they're quite thin & thus can be punctured or torn rather easily and are difficult to re-pack after use.
-
Answer These are actually tough enough to be used many times, as long as you don't subject them to harsh abrasion. They'll survive re-folding many times, but as has been said, you'll find it near impossible to fold them back up as small as their original packing.||They're aluminized mylar, which means they can be punctured by sharp objects, but they're difficult to tear unless you start the tear with a sharp cut, as with scissors. (once the cut is started, though, it will split with ease.) (This also depends on thickness--very thin ones may tear easily.)||I believe this type of material reflects somewhere around 95% of radiated heat. And yes, they are "krinkly" and noisy.||Being mylar (polyethylene), they're NOT fire resistant and will melt, and even hold a flame under the right conditions.
-
Answer These are very thin and only meant for emergencies. I would not count on using these more than once.
-
Answer You can reuse them, but you'll never get them folded back up to the nice compact size they started out.
-
Answer This is generally a single use, but there was an emergency blanket on Sierra that does the same thing but is more expensive. Found it: All-Weather Emergency Tarp 4011N. I'eve been using a similar product for years in the military & camping, yes it's full of duct tape but it works. Hope this helps.
-
Answer Although with care I'm sure it could be used a few times, most people buy them for emergency use. Kind of like reusing aluminum foil, it can be done but refolding one would be tricky.

Question “do these blankets keep you warm? like a "space blanket"? (those silver blankets)”
-
Answer This is an emergency blanket meant to keep users warm during a winter emergency and cooler in the summer by reflecting the sun away. The manufacture did not provide a temperature rating for this blanket.
-
Answer I always pack one of these when I go camping as I have a hard time maintaining my body temperature. Not only do they reflect heat, they also serve as a vapor barrier between you and the ground. Might be a little loud if you shift a lot in your sleep but it beats shivering all night.
