Weighted blankets provide gentle and even pressure across the body, offering sensory stimulation and a deep touch pressure sensation. Simba may be best known for its rolled-up mattresses, but the brand’s sleep-promoting expertise extends far beyond what we sleep on, it seems. Our tester wasn’t sure if this would mean that the weight would cover not all of their body, but the area is generously large enough to do the job. The general rule of thumb is that people most prefer blankets that weigh roughly 10% of their own body weight.Weighted blankets derive much of their comfort from their added heaviness, but the hand feel of the blanket can greatly enhance this comforting quality. While many sleepers report more relaxation and less anxiety sleeping under a weighted blanket, others feel too claustrophobic and pinned down. Weighted blankets use gentle pressure to promote a sense of calm and relaxation and reduce feelings of anxiety. It’s generally safe for adults to sleep with a weighted blanket every night – in fact, our tester now sleeps under their Simba blanket at all times.

The outer jersey-style fabric is super soft and while the open weave is quite stretchy it doesn’t feel draughty. The result is a breathable, super-soft blanket that helps you adapt to changing temperatures for a comfortable night’s sleep.Study participants noted the massage therapy helped reduce knee pain and improved their quality of life. The velvety cover included in the box feels wonderful next to skin, and we often found ourselves running our hands along the dimpled detail throughout. Brentfords super soft teddy fleece weighted blanket for adults and children / kids is engineered to provide a relaxing sleep experience using deep touch pressure therapy.

We liked: I love that the covers are interchangeable for warmer weather – that’s a real bonus some of the other brands can’t match. Not to mention that the cover can be unzipped and popped in the washing machine for cleaning on a cool cycle. If your child weighs more than 100 pounds, then a blanket for adults or children may be more suitable. and the brand recommends choosing a blanket that is 10% of your body weight for the most comfortable experience. The participants included 48 children and 37 adults who found it easier to relax during the day while using weighted blankets for sleep.

Those made with cheaper fabrics and plastic pellets tend to wear out more quickly, especially if you wash and dry them in household machines. The pure bamboo weighted blanket and cover are wonderfully breathable and a joy to sleep under on warmer evenings or with a low-tog duvet on chillier nights.

For others, you’ll be able to choose from a broader selection of sizes, such as twin, full, queen, and king. The weight is slightly less than most weighted blankets, but this isn’t necessarily a bad thing because it should be perfect for people who find 6kg-plus blankets a little overwhelming or claustrophobic. Using a few large bath towels on top of your duvet can give you a good alternative feeling of how the weighted blanket might feel before you invest in one. Pros: Unfortunately, in the UK we can't get hold of the Bearaby weighted blanket — so this Remy Sleep weighted blanket is the next best thing.If the weighted blanket comes with a removable cover, cleaning it is as easy as washing the cover, following the label’s instructions. Results have shown that anxiety levels were reduced by up to 60 per cent with the use of the weighted blanket. We gauged noise levels generated by each blanket and closely handled each blanket to get a sense for the overall feel and softness. Otherwise, if we’re being picky, then a wider range of colours would have been nice – they were all a bit safe and fairly neutral (navy, grey, white, oatmeal), save for a baby pink shade. However, one 2020 study found that people that slept with a weighted blanket reported higher quality sleep and more energy during the day as a result.
