The all-season blanket from Third of Life arrived in a typical packaging box. The box was undamaged and could easily be opened with scissors or a knife. Inside the box, the all-season blankets were shrink-wrapped in recycled plastic packaging that included the brand imprint and pictures of the blanket. The additional plastic packaging around the blanket protected it from possible water damage during delivery. In this case, the product was fully protected and the all-season blanket was therefore delivered in perfect condition.
The packaging of the all-season comforter is made of recycled plastic. The textile labeling can be found on the blanket and can also be found on the Third of Life website and on Amazon.
The all-season blanket from Third of Life makes a very good impression overall. The blanket was undamaged and the packaging was in very good condition.

Both the filling and the cover of the all-season comforter are made from 100% recycled PET bottles. This makes the blanket breathable, antistatic, moisture-regulating and very light despite its thickness. After opening the plastic packaging, the blanket inflated with air and unfolded its full size and thickness on the bed. Due to its thickness, it was a little difficult to fit into the comforter cover. It should be emphasized that it did not smell of harmful substances and felt very clean and soft. The feeling of sustainability was also convincing. Despite the consumption, fabrics from the environment were recycled and made into something new.
This is what our practical test showed

We really enjoyed sleeping with the all-season comforter when we tested it. With today’s energy prices, where you think twice about heating, the all-season comforter from Third of Life was the cheaper and better solution for us for a warm and pleasant sleep without the cold. We never sweated while sleeping. The blanket was very light on the body and didn’t pinch when we slept. Even in warmer temperatures, it was pleasantly warm and breathable. The advantage of being able to wash the blanket easily ensures healthy sleep hygiene.

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.8 stars. There is nothing to complain about on the first pages of the reviews. Only some consumers wished for an even thicker blanket. There was also one criticism that the blanket unfolds too slowly and does not immediately reach its full thickness in the form of inflated air. Nevertheless, all the reviews were consistently positive, which we can only confirm in our test. Customers were impressed by the fact that it provides a lot of warmth, is very light and breathable and therefore offers an optimal sleeping experience. Many customers also like the fact that the all-season comforter is more attractively priced than other well-known brand products of equally good quality. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the all-season comforter is warm, light and breathable. What was not so good was that there were no separate instructions in the packaging and the information could only be found online at Amazon.
Prices of up to €99.95 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as €49.29. The all-season comforter from Third of Life is currently in the lower price segment with a price of €59.95. The price ratio is very good for the quality and scope of services you get.
