Weather lounging at a picnic, watching the big game at the stadium, or car camping, the amazingly versatile Coleman All Outdoors 3-In-1 Blanket will bring you comfort and warmth. This insulated blanket measures 58 by 83 inches, and is made of a waterproof polyester fabric lined with 140-gram polyester fleece for added warmth. It converts to a hooded poncho, and can be stored in the hood to create a cushioned stadium seat. Easily storable, it's also handy to have available in case of emergencies.

About Coleman
The Coleman Company has been creating and innovating products for recreational outdoor use since W.C. Coleman started selling gasoline-powered lanterns in 1900. Inventor of the hugely popular fold-up camp stove, Coleman developed a plastic liner for his galvanized steel coolers in 1957--the birth of the modern cooler--and the company has been improving their utility and design ever since. The array of products that bear the Coleman name now includes just about everything you might need to work or play outdoors, from tents and sleeping bags to boats, backpacks, and furniture.

Customer Reviews

Cheap and does what it promises
I've only used this item as a park blanket, but for what it costs, this thing is a great deal for its size. Repels water, provides a soft surface to sit on. Its convertible qualities make folding a bit tricky, but not impossible to get the hang of.

Just the ticket!
If you are looking for a picnic blanket that wears like iron and can withstand any punishment, you can find them on line (for $100+). But if you are looking for a decent, versatile picnic blanket to keep in your car and put down when you want to have an impromptu stop at the park with the kids, this is what you want. As a "blanket" it would only be marginally functional because I don't think it is all that warm but better than nothing in a pinch. As a poncho, it is a bit awkward but again, functional in an emergency situation. As a picnic blanket it's just right and the size is much larger than most other blankets out there. The only reason I couldn't give it 5 stars is that it is a bit tricky stuffing it back into the built in pouch. I can see the pouch splitting over time if a person is not careful.

Versatile but what's with the scratchy velcro?
I ordered this based on the great reviews. Liked the blanket in person and how it converts to a poncho and stadium seat. But there is one big flaw. In the blanket mode there is a opening in the middle attached with small bits of velcro. The velcro barely holds the opening together and is scratchy making this a major design flaw. Since I plan to use it primarily as a blanket I am disappointed. Not worth the return shipping hassle so I will keep it. But Coleman should fix this. Anyone have a fix?
