Review on 🛏️ ZonLi Weighted Blanket 15lbs (60x80, Queen Size, Navy Blue), Cooling and Breathable Heavy Blanket for Adults, Soft Material with Premium Glass Beads by Jeff Hall

Mixed Emotions StillUPDATE: 11/17/2020I haven't had this blanket 3 months and it's leaking the sand! I'm not sure of where it is çoming from, it seems to be coming from all areas of the blanket (see attached photos). With that said, I'm going to have take back some stars, changing to 3.I love the blanket and it keeps me asleep, weight is good, it's just leaking. I don't see any torn or separated seams?********************************Okay, I received my weighted blanket on October 18th & my Duvet Cover on October 17th, both received on time as stated.Okay now for the review! I have not tried the weighted blanket before now, so this is my first time and I have mixed emotions. I read the reviews for different sites, and wow they differ so much. The description that I read for this blanket said it had glass beads, but mine, the one I received has sand in it. Check out my video.Getting this out of the box, into the duvet cover and on my bed, OMG was a serious workout! 🙂 I mean it weighs a ton, not really only 25 lbs, but wow, I had to take a nap after putting it finally on my bed.Okay, for me this was so time consuming 1) because I had to figure out the assembly of the duvet cover and the weighted blanket and tying them together. After inserting the blanket into the cover, I discovered I had it going the wrong direction, it did not sit correctly. 2) After readjusting the blanket in the cover and sleeping with it for about a week, I hated the cover. The blanket would shift and it would be all on one side weighing the heck out of me. I guess because of the material the cover is made of, the blanket slips and slides so to speak.So now I sleep with the blanket only, which I find is much better. I'm able to be covered fully and sleep comfortably throughout the night. And it fits you like a glove, a great big snugly hug.PROS:I love the weight of my blanket, it's 25 lbs and is not too heavyIt's described as they say it isThe size is just right for my California King bed, if you like to just fit. It is not hanging over the sidesI'm a side sleeper so it's comfortable and helps with keeping my legs straight instead sleeping in a fetal position, I need to have knee surgery and my knees are always hurting during sleepingI love the color and the material seem to be a good quality and the craftsmanship is good so farGreat purchaseCONSIt does get hot under the blanket, so I keep my thermostat at about 70 degrees, and my ceiling fan on low and I can sleep comfortably through the night, before, I would get up and turn down the thermostat, turn on the ceiling fan, and trust me when I say I'm a cold nature person and can take a lot of heat. So if you're a hot nature person, you may have to adjust your temperature to accommodate a good night's sleep.It's very heavy, depending on weight you purchase, but if you have any problems with heavy lifting you may need help, which is what I needed since I live alone, but did it by myself anyone.Do not buy the duvet cover if you don't think you need, especially if you think it's going to "help" with the weighted blanket, because in my opinion it does not.Overall, after sleeping with just the blanket for a week, I'm much happier than I thought originally. If you've never tried the weighted blanket, try it, it comes in different weights and there is a size for everyone, this is a good purchase and I would recommend this blanket!
