Product Information

Some blankets also promote more airflow than others due to how they are constructed. Knitted blankets have an openwork design that allows air to pass through freely, and this can help you keep cool – even if the blanket is exceptionally heavy. Quilted blankets cannot circulate air as well and often sleep hot as a result. Our Weighted Throw blanket has small loops sewn into the seams at the sides and corners to securely connect to a Baloo Living linen duvet cover, if desired. However, it's important to note that some weighted blankets also have their own “cooling system”. Usually, this means that the weighted blanket has multiple layers that are designed to maximise airflow. You can also use a duvet cover that's extra breathable if the weighted blanket itself has a stuffy cover.

The Nappling is Bearaby’s kids blanket, providing Bearaby’s trademark knitted design in a smaller, lighter, and more affordable form. With two weight options, this blanket can accommodate a wide age range in children. Of course, a good night’s sleep begins by finding the best mattresses, pillows and duvets for your specific needs, so a weighted blanket is really the cherry on top. If you are dipping your toe into the world of weighted blankets, whether for anxiety or in pursuit of the greatest night's sleep possible, we’ve put together a handy guide with everything you need to know to find the best weighted blanket for you. How heavy should a weighted blanket be? Most sizes for the blanket are sold with white or gray colors, but the 12-pound throw is available in four other colors: white, silver, navy, and rose. All three are derived from sustainable, 100% natural dyes. With a soft duvet cover made from polyester microfiber, this weighted blanket offers a very plush and fleecy feel. The cover is removable, and can be washed and dried at home. Grid-stitching ensures uniform weight distribution. For added stability, the inner blanket is equipped with corner ties and elastic buttons that secure it to the duvet cover and prevent uncomfortable bunching. Gravity Blanket offers seven cover colors, ranging from neutrals to bold blue, purple, and yellow. The inner blanket should only be hand-washed and air-dried. The 6.8kg (15lb) King Size Weighted Blanket measures 152x203 cm (60x80 inches) and fits the TOP of a UK double or king size bed.

Cool & breathable. Thoughtful design.

According to this study put forward by Harvard, touch can play a role when it comes to helping children with ASD calm down. However, not all children will have a positive effect nor will the positive effect be noticeable to the same degree. Some weighted blankets are constructed with breathable cover fabrics and interior components to keep you cool during the night. Others may absorb and trap body heat; combined with their hefty weight, this can lead to excessive warmth.

Now that we've covered all the best weighted blankets in the UK, it's only natural to ask – how do weighted blankets work in the first place? Organic cotton and rayon derived from bamboo are highly breathable materials, and the blanket contains glass bead fill for added temperature neutrality. These components make the blanket suitable for people who sleep hot or live in warmer climates, but the cover is also cozy enough for cold weather. One side of the cover has a fleecy texture, while the other is silky-smooth. Due to the hand-knit construction, the blanket should only be spot-cleaned as needed and never machine washed. Regardless of which weight you select, the blanket is designed for a throw size of 50 inches wide and 60 inches long. These dimensions make it best suited to single sleepers. In other words, weighted blankets can help but don't assume that they 100% will. Talk to a medical professional, try it out, and don't be afraid to search for other means if the weighted blanket doesn't seem to calm you down. Do you have to have a weighted blanket to deal with stress, anxiety, and ASD?This is because some children might have tactile sensitivities and simply not like the feeling of the weighted blanket. However, at the same time, other sources have claimed that weighted blankets can help lower this hypersensitivity to touch. Our 5.4kg (12lb) Weighted Throw blanket measures 107x183 cm (42x72 inches); it’s the perfect size for the sofa and is similar in size to the TOP of a single bed. It's also perfect for individual use on any size bed. Most weighted blankets contain plastic pellets, ball bearings, and other objects that make them feel significantly heavier than a standard cover or duvet. However, some newer weighted blankets feature open-knit designs that many sleepers find more breathable. Typical weights for these blankets range from 5 to 30 pounds. Sleepers tend to feel most comfortable beneath a blanket that comprises roughly 10 percent of their own body weight.
