Is 7 lb heavy enough for an adult?

For most adults, no. Sleep experts suggest roughly 10% of body weight, so 7 lb suits a child around 70 lb or an adult who wants only light pressure. Adults wanting deep pressure should look at 15 to 20 lb blankets.

Will it make me sleep hot?

The cotton cover breathes better than minky or fleece covers, so it is a reasonable pick for warm sleepers. It still traps some heat, and a 7 lb blanket adds little warmth on its own.

What size bed does 48 x 72 inches fit?

It fits a twin bed with little overhang and works as a throw on a couch or chair. It will not cover a full, queen or king mattress.

Can I wash it in a machine?

A 7 lb blanket is light enough for many home washers on a gentle cycle, but check your machine's capacity and use cold water. Air dry or tumble on low to keep the glass beads from clumping.

How does it compare with heavier weighted blankets?

It is lighter, cooler and easier to wash than 15 to 20 lb blankets, but it gives less pressure. Heavier blankets calm some sleepers more; this one suits people who find weight oppressive.

Our take on the 100% Cotton Weighted Blanket - 7lb Gray Weighted Twin Blanket - 48"X72"

The Bare Home weighted blanket is a 48 x 72 inch twin-size blanket filled with glass beads and covered in 100% cotton, weighing 7 pounds. That makes it one of the lighter weighted blankets on the market, closer to a lap pad than a full-body pressure blanket. It suits hot sleepers and people who want gentle weight rather than deep pressure, and it is easy to move and wash compared with heavier rivals. Shoppers looking for a 10% body-weight blanket for an adult will find it too light.
