You can always count on emergency blankets -- a.k.a. space blankets -- to do what they're supposed to do. They'll keep you warm if you need them to.

Verified Buyer Reviewed by Hikerb from Lunenburg, MA on Monday, July 24, 2017One of these is always in my backpack for a trip of any length, but I also use them when I teach others to make and bake in a reflector oven...this is my make-shift oven. You have to keep your fire and coals low, but if you tent this over a cooking fire, you can create an oven and bake cookies. It becomes a one-use item, but it's worth the cost. Nothing like cookies on a camping trip. :)

Verified Buyer Reviewed by steve from oregon on Thursday, April 13, 2017They each are individually wrapped in a zip-lock style bag. Seem to be the "standard" product.

Ours came individually wrapped.
-
No. All together. You can put them in individual ziplock bags and distribute for individual use.

-
You can use this multiple time, especially if you take care of it.
-
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.
-
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.
-
These are very thin and only meant for emergencies. I would not count on using these more than once.
-
You can reuse them, but you'll never get them folded back up to the nice compact size they started out.
-
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.
-
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.

I forgot the footprint on my Nemo tent early summer 2013 in the Six Rivers and all I could find was one of these I bought from STP maybe 5 years ago. I used it under my tent on rustic ground cover for 2 days. It worked so well and was actually warmer than my regular footprint that I used the same blanket on 2 other trips under my tent. They will never fit back to original folding size but they pack easily and wash easily in any lightly flowing stream. They are LOUD, so position tent door at the edge on mylar blanket just so you don't awaken everything in the forest!

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.
-
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.

These MYLAR blankets are excellent for keeping warm (protect from both evaporative & radiant heat loss) & protecting from sun,cold, wind & RAIN.
,
When chilly or feeling unwell, I put mylar sheet over me in a hot water bathtub; creates a goose-bump free, chill-free "SAUNA-like" treatment in my own bathtub. GREAT for relieving muscle / joint aches.
I use it over all my other bed blankets when the night air has too much chill... lovely WARM.
Great when you have a fever / feel chilled.
Makes a crinkle sound in breezy windy air, so I put it IN BETWEEN CLOTH blankets in the breezy air to keep warm & quiet to sleep peacefully.
These are lovely to buy in quantitiy... give one to each home-less person you see who lives outdoors..... LIFE SAVING on a sudden bitter cold night ! :-) -
