How do I choose the right weight?

Weighted blankets are generally chosen at roughly 10 percent of the user's body weight, plus a pound or two. For a child, go lighter and check that they can move the blanket off themselves.

Is it warm to sleep under?

The plush fabric and weight hold warmth, so it suits cool rooms and cooler sleepers. Hot sleepers may find it too warm for summer nights.

Plush weighted blankets are usually spot cleaned or washed on a gentle cycle and air dried. Check the care label before washing, since the weight filling can clump in a hot dryer.

Is it safe for young children?

Weighted blankets are not recommended for infants or toddlers who cannot remove them independently. For older kids, choose a lighter weight and confirm they can push the blanket off.

What makes it different from a plain weighted blanket?

The raised-bump side gives tactile feedback for sensory seeking, while the smooth reverse suits users who prefer a soft feel. Most weighted blankets offer only one plain fabric.

Does it fit a standard bed?

It is sized as a personal blanket rather than a bedspread, so it covers one sleeper. Pair it with regular bedding rather than using it as the only cover.
