Brentfords Weighted Blanket 8kg, Super Soft Weighted Blanket Adult Therapy Sensory Autism Insomnia Stress Anxiety Relief for Adults - 150x200cm, Hot Pink (Disclaimer: Only suitable for age 3+years)

THE ITEM The recommended size for my body weight was a double size, however this sold out. my bed is a king and adult can add an extra few pounds but i went for the king even though i was slightly worried. the item came 4 days early and came packaged nicely and came in a white bag with handles. The colour is the super cute like the picture and it is soft and good quality. It is really heavy so i feel like its an arm workout every time i pick it up and move it but thats expected. It is hard to lift but its easier to drag but its not that bag of a deal since the weight is the point of the product. THE EXPERIENCE so when i first laid under the blanket it was such a strange (in a good way) experience. The weight was nice and relaxing and it felt really good on my body. I have slept with it on top of me and on top of my quilt too. Surprisingly, it doesn't get too warm and stuffy just under the blanket so its fine during the hot summer. I feel like i get use to the weight, but i do feel it helps calm my body and anxiety. It can get quite annoying when i wake up and i wanna take it off so i just end up kicking it to the bottom of my bed. The beads are unnoticeable and they evenly fit to your body shape. MY WORRY i was worried if this was dangerous to sleep with but i think it may just be unsafe for young children. please do your research. The description also says they are made from micro-beads made from glass so i was scared to sit on the blanket and break the glass/damage but i think the beads are too small to break. OVERALL I feel like this is a great blanket to ease anxiety and maybe relax you at night time. as some blankets are like £100 this is worth the money and hopefully it lasts.

"I am very happy with this weighted blanket. The 6kg weight is perfect and really helps with relaxation, anxiety, and better sleep. The quality is excellent and it feels soft, comfortable, and well-made. It has made a big difference for me. Highly recommended!"

I suffer from crippling anxiety from my CPTSD and struggle terribly with sleep. I always feel exposed in a way even when under my duvet. I’ve had a weighted blanket before but not as heavy as this one. I’ve had it for 24 hours and it made a HUGE difference in my sleep quality immediately. My body is usually crawling with anxiety like tv static. This blanket has significantly reduced that feeling. Thank God! I have it on my bed under my duvet so I’m under both. I plan to, on very bad days, fold it in half for even more weight on the top half of my body. I also feel this blanket would benefit those with restless legs. The material is soft and of good quality. I highly recommend if you suffer from any kind of anxiety or sleep issues.

So I finally got a weighted blanket after years of wanting one but finding them expensive. However I looked on the Amazon Black Friday sale and managed to get this one for under £16, bargain. The delivery was really speedy and well packaged on arrival. Now down to the blanket, so it definitely feels heavy, I’m just glad I didn’t go for the heaviest size I feel the 6kg one is just right for me. The material is very soft and nicely stitched and well made and i absolutely adore the plush pink colour! The blanket is a little on the thin side but it just about keeps me warm. I haven’t tried to use it at nighttime for bed yet so time will tell if it improves my anxiety and sleep, but I really do hope it helps. So why did I take a star off? Well the product is very well made, soft and a great weight however I do wish I went for a bigger size as it doesn’t cover me properly so my feet stick out the end, doesn’t help with the fact I’m tall. But overall this blanket is well worth the money, and the delivery was very speedy also so I really recommend this product. Thank you.

AMAZING SLEEP !! After trying so many other things to help me sleep, (teas, sleep apps, pillows, pillow sprays), I wasn't holding out much hope. I'm delighted to see that I was proven wrong. From the first night of using my new best friend, I've actually fallen asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. I'm also sleeping through the night too. I find the weight and warmth so very comforting, and with energy prices being as high as they are, this blanket is a must for me. The quality of the material is very impressive, especially for the price. The value for money is fantastic, so don't waste your money on the more expensive options.... THIS IS THE ONE !!!! I am a bit worried about the washability of the blanket. Being housebound I know there's no way it will fit in my domestic washing machine. THE 1 DRAWBACK.... I wasn't happy with the state of the parcel when it arrived. It came in a plastic bag that was obviously never going to be able to hold the weight of the contents. The bag was fully open and had another hole in the side. Maybe a rethink on the packaging would be a good idea.

Excellent weighted blanket, very comfy and highly recommended!! Only downside is trying to get the teenager out of bed in the morning!

I'm so impressed it's really heavy but once your covered you will sleep like a baby! Carrying it around is a workout in itself haha

Quality is really good. The filling is beaded and it’s quite nice to the touch and therapeutic in a way. Definitely helps quality of sleep, I think I sleep a bit deeper when I have th weighted blanket on.

Nice and soft. The size is perfect for relaxing and reading on the couch. This is my second weighted blanket and by far my favorite of the two. I chose an 8 pound blanket, I’m 120 pounds with a small frame. I find this to be much more calming than my previous 12 pound, which felt a bit crushing. The light grey color is also soothing. I’m using it as I write this review, hence, no exclamation points ;)

Nice color, texture and weight, slept well.

higly recommended for nervous people like myself

8kg sind für mich nicht zu schwer bei 70kg Körpergewicht. Ich hätte es sogar noch gerne etwas schwerer. Aber es passt gut, Material ist super schön weich und alles sauber verarbeitet. Ich bin zufrieden. Wie eine Umarmung fühlt es sich aber nicht an. :D

Ich hatte schon 2 andere Gewichtsdecken, diese hier habe ich behalten. Sehr gute Verteilung, habe mir einen Bezug drum gemacht, da man die Decke nicht waschen kann. Schlafen tue ich selten damit, aber sie beruhigt mich bei Panik.
