Product Information

The blanket is designed with high-quality glass bead fill encased in a cotton shell. Grid stitching keeps the glass beads in place, resulting in even distribution across the blanket and preventing the fill from bunching up.

We prioritize safety during our weighted blanket tests. As a rule, the weight of each tester must represent at least 10% of the blanket’s weight for all testing stages. If we are evaluating a blanket for couples, both participants must meet this weight threshold.

Clinical observation may point to a reduction in maladaptive behaviors, or an improvement in attention while wearing a vest or using another sensory strategy, however, it is difficult to determine if the vest is making the difference versus sleep, diet, mood, exercise, weather, or 75 other variables. Depending on availability, we test up to three weights for each blanket. This allows us to gauge how comfortable the blanket is for different weight groups.

Moderate evidence suggests that weighted items can increase attention and occupational performance. You know the feeling of getting into bed after a long, tiring day, and your body feels heavy in the best way—like you could fall asleep in a second? That's how I feel when I put the Therarobe on. It's not quite as soft as its super-soft blanket, but it's still very nice to wear. The general rule of thumb is to choose a weighted blanket that is roughly 10 percent of your own body weight. However, this is not a hard and fast rule. Realistically, a blanket weighing between 5 and 12 percent of your body weight may be comfortable. The best way to determine your optimal blanket is to test out different weights.Most weighted blankets contain plastic pellets, ball bearings, and other objects that make them feel significantly heavier than a standard cover or duvet. However, some newer weighted blankets feature open-knit designs that many sleepers find more breathable. Typical weights for these blankets range from 5 to 30 pounds. Sleepers tend to feel most comfortable beneath a blanket that comprises roughly 10 percent of their own body weight. The shell is composed of Tencel lyocell, a smooth Eucalyptus-derived fabric with a naturally cool feel. Resistant to stains, the fabric is suitable for outings such as picnics and beach trips. The blanket is filled with 100% PET recycled from plastic bottles, making this appealing to shoppers who prioritize eco-friendly products. Quilted stitching gives the blanket an attractive pattern while also keeping the fill in place. Choose your weight. Most companies advise that the weight should be around 10 percent of your body weight; for example, if you're 150 pounds, that would be a 15-pound blanket. But we often wanted a much heavier blanket. The 10 percent rule is just a guide. Do you like to be tightly cuddled while you sleep? You probably can go with a heavier blanket. Kids or elderly folks should go with something lighter.

The Buffy Puffer Blanket is a functional yet stylish throw blanket that you can use both indoors and outdoors. Available in a vibrant array of colors, the blanket stands out from other blankets with its attractive and thoughtful quilted design. Most weighted blankets sold today consist of inner blankets with weighted beads or pellets encased in an outer cover. These designs have a tendency to trap heat, even if the fabrics are composed of breathable materials. The Silk & Snow Weighted Blanket takes a different approach with soft cotton yarns in an open-knit design, ensuring plenty of airflow while delivering the deep compression people have come to expect from this type of covering. A person being interviewed about the behavior of their student/child may not paint a clear picture. Oftentimes, caregivers either over dramatize, or deny behaviors and outcomes. Weighted blankets carry benefits for a wide range of sleepers. Whether or not it is officially due to sleep onset insomnia, those who struggle to fall asleep at night may feel more relaxed and less anxious under a weighted blanket. This can be true for adults, teenagers, and children age 2 or older, especially if they experience an undue amount of stress over work, family, or other concerns. Which Weighted Blankets Are Best for Kids? Are They Safe?The weight should typically be 5-10% of the body weight, higher for a weighted blanket, as the weight is distributed differently. Adjust as needed for maximum effectiveness. Some people are more sensitive to input than others. Compression vests are currently less likely to have specific data on their use, as they are often used a part of a treatment plan, either with weighted vests or other sensory items. Weighted vests are far more popularized in the research arena, but below you will find the best available evidence for compression vests. With a soft duvet cover made from polyester microfiber, this weighted blanket offers a very plush and fleecy feel. The cover is removable, and can be washed and dried at home. Grid-stitching ensures uniform weight distribution. For added stability, the inner blanket is equipped with corner ties and elastic buttons that secure it to the duvet cover and prevent uncomfortable bunching. Gravity Blanket offers seven cover colors, ranging from neutrals to bold blue, purple, and yellow. The inner blanket should only be hand-washed and air-dried. The Nappling is Bearaby’s kids blanket, providing Bearaby’s trademark knitted design in a smaller, lighter, and more affordable form. With two weight options, this blanket can accommodate a wide age range in children. The blanket is available in two sizes, each with a unique weight. The single blanket weighs 12 pounds, making it ideal for solo sleepers in the range of 100 to 140 pounds. If you weigh more than 140 pounds or enjoy sharing your weighted blanket with a sleep partner, the larger 20-pound blanket might be a better fit. This option is comparable to an oversize queen/king, so there’s plenty of coverage for two people.
