Review on Super-Soft Kids Weighted Blanket 15 Pounds with Washable Minky Cover πŸ›Œ - Ultimate Comfort for Boys and Girls - 48x72 Inches 15lbs Heavy Blanket by Suhas Payton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very calming for my anxious 6 year old but warm and cuddly for my 5 year old.

*** Update: My second daughter loved her sister's weighted blanket so much we bought another one. The kids sleep soundly with these. Very soft and comfortable. Washing isn't difficult, but takes some thought and effort to do it correctly to get everything back in place. My second daughter does not have sleep issues but loves this for the warmth.We gave this to our 6 year old daughter who has anxiety issues and wakes up at least 1-2 times a night. When she opened this on her birthday she loved the bright pink color and the soft minky feel. Once she covered up with the blanket she immediately relaxed (even after a long night of presents and cake) and nearly fell asleep in her chair. She slept through the night that night and the following couple nights. Now about a week later, she still sleeps better with this weighted blanket than without it but she will wake up if it slides off in the night from turning.The minky is really soft and the 5 pound weight seems just right for her (about 40 pounds). It is heavy for her to carry down the hall but adults will have no problem moving it. I haven't washed it yet and am a bit nervous about that since the instructions are very explicit but overall we are really happy with her "heavy blanket." This product was recommended to us from a friend who is an occupational therapist. So glad we splurged on this blanket!

Pros
  • The weighted blanket can be used as an alternative to heavy medications
Cons
  • The blanket may not be as therapeutic as advertised
