Their rapid delivery is impressive and the blanket is great. Be careful when deciding the size. The larger ones are suitable for chair covers and the smaller ones are good for cover in a cool room

Very happy with my blankets
Very happy with my blankets. Soft and warm. Feels nice with the natural feel of the wool. Much better than a nylon blanket.

Great customer service
Delivered very quickly. Unfortunately I ordered the wrong size - totally my fault. Customer service were very helpful - I took it to the Huboo courier rather than posting - and the return and refund processed immediately. Can't really comment on the blankets but rest assured you are dealing with decent people if you need a return.

A bad buy
It is a pretty blanket/throw, but apart from dropping fluff (which I’m not bothered about) it has formed what I can only describe as little dreadlocks - presumably it is equivalent to pilling. This had happened very quickly - only a month or two. It already looks pretty awful. Initially I was disconcerted by how very thin it is - I don’t think that matters though, it’s just different to wool or fleece. It’s how poorly it’s worn that means I wouldn’t get one again.

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback — we really appreciate it.
Alpaca fibre is quite different from sheep’s wool or fleece, and its lightness is actually one of its key natural qualities. Alpaca blankets are designed to provide warmth without bulk, which can feel unfamiliar at first if you’re used to heavier textiles.
Regarding the pilling you mentioned: alpaca fibres are very fine and smooth, and during the first period of use it’s normal for some loose fibres to surface, especially with friction. This doesn’t affect the structure or warmth of the blanket and typically stabilises over time. Gentle care, such as light brushing or careful removal of surface fibres, usually keeps the blanket looking its best for many years.
We’re genuinely sorry that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. Your feedback is valuable to us and helps us improve both how we present our products and how we guide customers on what to expect from natural alpaca fibre.

Very poor quality.
Very poor quality.
Excessive pilling .
Not to mention that I nearly returned it because of colour scheme.
Not worth the money I paid.

Thank you for sharing your feedback — we’re sorry to hear that the blanket didn’t meet your expectations.
Alpaca is a natural fibre, and some light pilling can occur, particularly at the beginning of use. This is a known characteristic of natural wool fibres and usually settles with time and gentle care.
We understand that colour and texture are very personal, and what feels right for one person may not for another. Your comments are appreciated and are taken seriously, as they help us review both product presentation and customer expectations.
Really happy with the purchase
Really happy with the purchase, alpaca wool poncho for my hubby which he loves, walking around like Clint Eastwood. It’s really warm and received the order pretty quick and would use this company again for purchases in the future
