Review on 🛏️ YnM Cotton/Polyester Duvet Cover for Weighted Blankets: Grey/White Reversible, 60''x80'' - Enhance Your Weighted Blanket Experience! by Tanya Barker

I bought at least 12 of these for the various 48 x 72 inch weighted blankets I have. I love the Small Tree design, 48'x72', I only buy them when they're on sale for $20 or less and then I stock up. I watch the prices every day and when they get close to that price I buy as many as I can afford. Apparently softer after washing, but I like the crisp, firmer feel of the new cotton sheets out of the box. I hate it when they get too soft and lose their shape. So I keep buying new ones so I can switch to a new one instead of washing them. When I wash them, I iron them and use starch spray to get that new, stiffer feel out of the box. They're well made and, for hot sleepers, are the second best cooling material to 100% bamboo viscose. Although bamboo is two or three degrees colder, it slides everywhere, it's slippery and almost always falls off the bed or sofa onto the floor while I'm sleeping. It's kind of a pain and that's why I only buy 100% cotton now. Cotton blankets stick better, and a weighted blanket is less likely to slip into the duvet cover, curl up like bamboo, and slide onto the floor. It's beautifully done and I have a tip for you. If you are tying a weighted duvet into the cover, start by turning the duvet cover inside out. Pull straight on all ropes to ensure blanket pulls straight out at all corners. Then lay it on the floor or on a large flat surface like a large bed etc. Then place a weighted blanket over it and line up all the corners with the duvet cover. Then tie the cords into the loops of the blanket. Do not tie the bow as the weighted blanket will come loose inside the duvet cover. Make sure each thread is double knotted when in the loops. It's going to be a little fiddly to untie if you want to replace it, but if you tie the ropes into loops they'll definitely come undone under the weight of the blanket. (Look for 8 loop weighted blankets because those blankets have 8 straps. Some cheaper weighted blankets only have 4-6 loops and then move into the duvet cover because they can't be fully fastened. Two corners and pull it all back out of there inside out.Then your weighted comforter will lie properly inside the duvet cover.Align all the corners, shake firmly by holding the two ends of the corners, lay horizontally and close and you have your comforter and weighted comforter properly inside cover and well secured.Make sure all drawstrings are tucked in so they don't snag on the zipper.You may need to smooth it out daily by grabbing the two corners,hang it upside down for a second or two and shake out so the duvet doesn't fold and stays that way for another night this is my favorite brand of duvet covers from 1st 00% cotton. Trust me I've tried them all and while thin as a sheet these were the thickest and fit well made of any brand I've tried. If you're still hot under the covers if you're prone to hot sleepers, just turn on the fan and turn on the air conditioning. I do this in the summer, otherwise it gets too hot for me. I would not recommend minky duvets if you get hot in your sleep or hate getting hot under your duvets. You'll wake up toasty and sweaty underneath, and the heat will be too much for you. If you want something warmer for the cold winter months this might be a good idea.
