15 lb Weighted Blanket for Adults - Queen Size 60"x80" Cooling Heavy Blanket with Glass Beads - Light Grey Weighted Blanket for Anxiety Relief, Stress & Better Sleep - Perfect for Bedroom, Couch & Travel

After a brief stay in a hotel with minimal bed coverings (I missed the multi-layers of blankets on my own bed) I decided to try a weighted blanket. With this one, I was able to eliminate most of the other coverings at home and still feel as snug and secure as if I were still huddled under Grandma's hefty quilt. I find myself lifting and tugging as I wake up briefly to turn over, and I figure I'm getting a minor workout, just sleeping under the weighted blanket -- more than I was getting under the heirloom quilt! The one I got is a fairly ugly dark gray, but on the bed in the dark and covered with a duvet, who cares what it looks like? The glass beads are evenly distributed in small sealed pockets and have shown no propensity for shifting around. If I hadn't bought this one already, I'd buy it again.I bought it for all the popular reasons, with mine being insomnia and trouble falling asleep. The blanket itself is great. Very comfortable, giving you that feel good sensation you get (at least me) of having multiple quilts and blankets on you in the winter time, most definitely for those that need to sleep in a very chilly bedroom, and it was all of that. However, IF YOU SUFFER FROM ANY BACK, BONE, JOINT ISSUES, this is NOT for you. I have lower back and hip pain that is bad enough on its own, but the first night I slept under it, I was in tears in the morning! I literally had to have helpgetting out of bed and remained in pain throughout the day. It was like having an additional 15 pounds of weight, on top of my already fat ass, driving me further into my mattress. This blanket may be someone else’scure all, but it really needs to come with this type of warning. The only one I actually read that would be considered a warning is, “don’t use this product if your claustrophobic” where it should include, “don’t use this product if you have preexisting back, bone or joint problems!” I returned the blanket.This (15 pound) weighted blanket is very comfortable if you have restless leg syndrome, anxiety, PTSD or just want to feel more comfortable. I had purchased a 30 pound one and it was way too heavy and made me feel “suffocated I had purchased a 30 pound one and it was way too heavy and made me feel “suffocated“ I weigh 120 pounds if that will help anybody determine what size weighted blanket to get. I gave the 30 pound one to my stepdad and he felt comfortable with it being that he is larger.The feeling of this weighted blanket is really soft and the pink color is a very pretty color of pink, the pictures are exactly like the color, a very soft pink and not too bright.This is my favorite thing to sleep with every night.My blanket is amazing! I would buy it again. Just like the picture. I bought it because I heard great things about a weighted blanket, and people says it helps with anxiety, which I do have. Honestly, it does nothing for my anxiety but it probably would help if you are a restless sleeper. If you are a person looking into one of these blankets and gets claustrophobic easily it is def not for you. When you are sleeping still (not moving), its so comfy! Feels like you're being cuddled or you've been tucked in, a very comforting feeling. But when you move, it is kind of hard because of the weight, like you are swimming with a full set of clothes on. I can see why some would hate that, but I love it!I don't sleep well. I toss, I turn, I think, I sing, I dance. Sleeping is typically my most challenging task. I'm either too hot, or too cold, and I want the feeling of being held, but I don't want to be touched by a real human. In comes the weighted blanket. Folding it is not fun. Trying to make your bed with a 15lb blanket is not fun either. However, when it comes to comfort, feeling safe and secure, and sleeping so hard you don't even know what year it is.....this is the blanket you want.I bought this because I was having trouble sleeping.. turns out this is not a good idea if you are claustrophobic! But I gave it to my adult son and he loves it! It has held up well. The weight is evenly distributed.I love this blanket. It helps with my anxiety and it helps me to stay asleep. It’s very soft and warm. Also, I’ve noticed how, living in California, that even on warmer days or nights, this blanket keeps me cool. Even if I use it to just cover my feet at night, I feel so comforted and relaxed. This blanket has been a life changer for someone like me who has suffered from anxiety as early as the age of seven.
