Silentnight Wellbeing Weighted Blanket - Anxiety & Stress Relief for Adults Insomnia Therapy - Sensory Calming Heavy Quilted Hug Blanket - 6.8kg, 150x200cm, Grey

Comfortable and feels well-made. Finish to the fabric is neither hot nor cold feeling and weight distribution feels even. I have mine on top of the duvet as an extra layer and it doesn't feel too much, nor does it slip at all. Definitely feel like I'm sleeping better since I started using this. Note re the weight: I think the weight quoted must be per square metre, because I bought the 6.8kg one and when it's all folded up it feels more like ~20kg in total weight.

Great value for money (especially if you can snatch it up during a sale like I did!) The 9kg blanket is heavier than you’d anticipate, especially is 9kg is over 10% of your body weight (the ballpark figure of what you should go for in a weighted blanket). The blanket is ready to use out of packaging, but I put a cotton duvet cover on it for comfort. I was worried about being hot under it but that is certainly not the case for me. It’s heavy but breathable. I sleep with the blanket on top of my thin duvet, and the only reason why I’m warmer than normal, is because the weighted blanket tucks the duvet around you with its weight. Particularly helpful if you move a lot and untuck your duvet a lot, getting cold air in. None of that has happened since I got it! It looks great and the stitching quality is nice, super soft even without an extra cover.

My son loves this blanket and says that it helps him sleep.

I purchased the Silentnight Weighted Blanket for my child who struggles with anxiety and sleep issues, and while I think it's a great product, unfortunately, it didn't resolve their sleep issues. The blanket is well-made and has a soft, quilted texture that feels comfortable to the touch. The weight of the blanket is evenly distributed and provides a calming and relaxing sensation when wrapped around the body. However, despite using the blanket regularly, my child's sleep issues persisted. That being said, I do think that the blanket has potential to help others who struggle with anxiety and sleep issues. It's a well-designed and high-quality product, and I appreciate that it comes in a range of weights and sizes to suit different needs. Overall, while it didn't work for my child, I would still recommend the Silentnight Weighted Blanket to others who are looking for a natural way to relieve anxiety and promote relaxation.

This is a plush, velvet-feel blanket with a good heft to it. My son really enjoys the comfort of being tucked up in it, although it obviously only really works in Winter when it's cold enough to require the layer - it's very cosy and he's a hot sleeper. It looks great, deep grey fabric goes with everything.

Fantastic item! I feel its made a huge difference to my childs sleep, as prior to using the blanket my 4 year old would be unsettled throughout the night, and want to get up around 5.30am. However, since using this product he sleeps much better, most nights sleeping through the night and is getting up around 7am. This blanket weighs 3kg, and I feel the lighter ones around 1.5kg wouldn't have made much of a difference so I did go for a slightly heavier one.

I have wanted one of these for a long time but was always put off by the price, so I was really happy to see this one for a lower cost. It has honestly been life changing! After years and years of restless nights, tossing and turning and never really feeling fully rested, I have slept soundly every night for a week! I have more energy, am more focused, more productive at work, and just feel so much better overall. I’m sure I’d never experienced a proper night’s sleep before this blanket came into my life. My only regret is that I didn’t buy one sooner!! It’s slightly annoying that it doesn’t fit a standard duvet cover, as I imagine it’ll be a pain to wash as it’s so heavy. But I use mine on top of the duvet then fold it up at the foot of the bed in the morning, so I won’t need to wash it too often hopefully. If you have any issues sleeping, especially due to restlessness, don’t hesitate in buying this!

One of my favourite blankets! It's not fluffy, it's not super-warm, it's not fancy, but I can easily relax and sleep underneath it, specially after stressful day! I've shared it with my friends and they wanted to get it as well! 9kg might be too heavy for some, but as a 95kg guy, it's perfect for me! It's survived 4.5 years with me so far and the quality is still high - the stitching is going strong and no glass beads that are inside were lost! If you want to get someone a great gift - this is it! High recommendation!

From the 1st night I've used this the effect is instant. Easier to fall asleep and stay alseep. I used to wake up in the night at least 3-4 time which has reduced and due to the weight on the body it makes me fall asleep easily. Use with a duvet cover if needed but the material of the blanket is very soft and you don't need the duvet cover at all in my opinion.

So for starters i am a person who gets cold so easily throughout the night and then struggle to go back to sleep - this blanket solved multiple problems: 1. You know when you turn or adjust your sleeping position and then the cold air seeps in? You can forget about that because this weighted blanket will not do that to you. 2. I have anxiety and i am also an overthinker, so before sleep even if i set the mood i tend to find myself staying up for 1 extra hour - this blanket felt like a lovely hug that kept me feeling safe and sound, the weight is spread nicely so it felt consistent and very comfortable. 3. The beads did not make any sound they will not bother you! Btw i got the 6.8kgs and i am thankful i did~!

Deep sleep, recommend only at bed time. I used it to just chill on the sofa. Woke up 3 hrs later. Very happy customer!

Exactly as described, good quality. Haven’t washed yet, using for a few days, so far so good

This is perfect for anyone who needs extra support during sleep. It’s perfectly heavy. Can only wash at the laundry, too heavy to wash at home.
