The Alansma weighted blanket is a reversible velvet throw meant to give gentle, hug-like pressure for sleep, naps and couch time. It comes in one Twin size (48 x 72 in) and one weight, 5 lb, so it suits lighter adults and older kids rather than the 12 lb version the brand describes for 110-130 lb users. The velvet face is soft and warm; the reverse side is the cooler option for warmer months. Against heavier glass-bead blankets, 5 lb is light pressure and easier to move, but it gives less deep-pressure benefit and is small for two people. Owners rate it 4.3 out of 5, generally liking the softness and finding the weight lighter than expected.

This weighted blanket is made of velvet and feels very soft to the touch. Its weight gives the feeling of a gentle hug. It is reversible and made for all seasons, for adults and kids.
Use it on the bed for sleep or a nap. It also works over a couch while you watch TV or read.
For the right weight, choose a blanket that is 6% to 10% of your body weight. If you are new to weighted blankets and worry about it feeling too heavy, choose about 7%.
