Why do shoppers love it?

This weighted blanket weighs 12 pounds and is 60 inches by 80 inches. It comes in a few colors, with the pink on sale for just $36 currently. The red and gray, Wine Red, and teal are all on sale for less than $40. The Navy Blue and Pink Checkered options are both less than $45 right now. The manufacturer also sells other sizes and weights if you need a different size. It's recommended to get a weighted blanket that is 10% of your body weight for maximum performance. 

This blanket is made with a 7-layer construction: two layers of wear-resistant polyester on the outside, two layers of cotton to keep the filling in place and prevent movement of the beads, two layers of cushion to provide extra comfort and softness, and the middle layer is non-toxic glass beads to provide calming pressure while you sleep. It is designed with a stitching pattern that keeps the beads in place to provide equal weight distribution and prevents them from bunching up. It also has hooks on the corners so you can use a duvet cover with it if you like.

According to shoppers, the best feature of this blanket is that it helps them sleep better. One shopper said they purchased this weighted blanket for their daughter, who loves it. They said, "She falls asleep so much faster, and I've noticed she doesn't roll around as much in her sleep. It is soft, durable, and the fabric and sttiching is great quality. It holds in warmth and is still a breathable material. It is plenty big enough for her to curl up under when she's sleeping or just lounging around." Another shopper said they bought it for their mother, and it's helped her relax and move less in her sleep, too.
