It is very difficult to find in any store, including Gifi, a garment that meets all your requirements. This is also the case for thehoodieblanketof the Gifi brand which, although very attractive in terms of tariffs with a purchase price of €26.99, leads us to ask ourselves certain questions regarding its quality.
Is the Gifi hoodie blanket really the best product for heating at home?Customer reviews are very mixed. On the one hand, some say it is a good product, but on the other hand, others are more critical and think that it is not the best product on the market. So what are reviews and how do you tell the difference between good reviews and negative reviews?
How do you know if their plaid product is of good quality? How do you know if the Gifi hoodie blanket is of good quality?The answer to these questions can be found by reading the rest of this post. Its reading, based on an in-depth analysis by our experts, will allow you to skim over its advantages and disadvantages.
1. Gifi hoodie blanket :package opening and first analysis
The Gifi fleece hoodie blanket is a cozy hoodie blanket that allows you to warm up thanks to a warm and pleasant to wear material: polyester.
Size-wise, it's a fairly large throw, enough for you to wrap around in, but not so big that it's too bulky.
During our test, at first glance, the fleece sweatshirt seems to be of good quality, the seams relatively well hidden or even almost invisible in some places: a positive point moreover.
In addition, the cut is narrow: Gifi seems to be taking the opposite view of the giant hoodie trend favored by all the main players, including our company, to offer a leotard fleece hooded blanket, visually more "slim" but offering much more limited freedom of movement.
2. GIFI hooded blanket : 3 months of use and second analysis
After using the GIFI hoodie blanket for 3 months, several details jumped out at us: we faced several observations, some related to design and others related to use.
Our first discovery was a lack of symmetry in the long sleeves of the hooded fleece hooded blanket: one of the sleeves is noticeably shorter. No discomfort wearing it that said, but for a product that promotes comfort and well-being, it deserves a comment.
The second point worthy of interest was the weakening of the seams: some even became faulty after use by children, who of course use the hoodie blanket much more than adults.
We mentioned above the slim fit of the Gifi sweatshirt: it turns out that wearing this product on a daily basis was more challenging than expected. Its narrow character on the body did not make it very easy.
Last comment: just like the hooded blanket, the hood is also small, which pulls slightly on the fabric and the seams when you put it on.
3. Blanket Hoodie GIFI : in conclusion
In the light of our two analyzes made upon receipt of the package and after three months of use,the cheap hoodie blanket from GIFI offers very good value for money with a purchase price below 30€, against 55€ for most of its competitors.
That said,the durability, the quality of the polyester fabric and the thickness offered by the Gifi hoodie blanket seem to us to be of lower quality than those of the adult fleece hoodies of the main actors , who choose to ensure better warmth, softness noticeable and a more comfortable fabric thickness.
