Is 8 lbs heavy enough for an adult?

It is on the light end. Most adult weighted blankets run 15 to 20 lbs, roughly 10% of body weight. An 8 lb blanket suits people who want mild pressure, are sensitive to weight, or run hot.

Will it fit a queen bed?

No. At 47 by 78 inches it is a throw size. It covers one person on a couch or lies across the foot of a bed, but it will not cover a queen mattress.

The polyester shell and fill make it hard to machine wash without clumping. Spot clean and air it out; use a duvet cover if you want to wash the outer layer.

Is it hot to sleep under?

The sherpa side and polyester fill hold heat. Hot sleepers should use the jacquard side up or keep it for cooler rooms.

Our take on the Jacquard Sherpa Weighted Blanket 8lbs for Adults

This is an 8 lb knit-jacquard throw in 100% polyester with a sherpa reverse, sized 47 by 78 inches. The weight is light for an adult blanket, so it suits people who want gentle pressure rather than deep compression. The long, narrow shape drapes over a couch or the foot of a bed better than it wraps a queen mattress. Against heavier 15 to 20 lb blankets, it is easier to move and less claustrophobic, but it gives less of the calming deep-touch feel that heavier blankets are bought for.
