What weight should I choose?

A common guide is about 10% of body weight, so a 150 lb adult would look at roughly 15 lb. Go lighter if you want it mainly for sitting or for a child.

Is it hot to sleep under?

The cotton cover and cotton-rich filling breathe better than polyester or minky covers, so it suits warm sleepers and summer use better than fleece-backed blankets.

Can I wash it in a machine?

Yes, the blanket is machine washable. A weighted blanket is heavy when wet, so check your machine's drum capacity and dry it fully before use.

What filling can I pick?

The filling is one of the options chosen at order. Glass microbeads give a quieter, more even weight; plastic pellets are heavier and noisier. Ask which fillings are offered before ordering.

Is it safe for children?

The fabrics are OEKO-TEX certified, which covers harmful substances. Weight still matters: choose a light weight for a child and check with a doctor if the child has health conditions.

Does it come with a cover?

The blanket is the cotton shell with the weighted filling inside. No separate removable duvet cover is described, so the printed cotton is the outer surface.
