Improves sleep quality for RLS and sleep apnea
I bought this for my spouse to try, as they are dealing with Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) and sleep apnea, as well as chronic pain issues. They are also prone to nightmares, which are sometimes associated with sleep apnea. I did a lot of research and read lots of reviews and finally settled on this one. It has been wildly successful in improving the quality and duration of their sleep. Often they would wake early in the morning after only 5 or 6 hours of sleep and not be able to fall back asleep. With this blanket we are happy to say it’s more like 8 hours of restful deep sleep. As the person sharing the bed, I can observe the sleep is more peaceful with much less tossing and turning, and much less leg movement. It’s made a huge difference in the quality of sleep!We have a king bed and this works perfectly for his half of the bed. It does overlap onto my side by about 8 inches, but I roll that up toward the center, which makes a heavy part and helps keep it from sliding off the bed. If you let too much of it hang off the side of the bed gravity will pull it, so be mindful. It would be the perfect size for a twin. We choose the 20 lb, he likes it. It does make him a bit hot, but we were able to solve that by turning our AC down 2 degrees. The baffles are sewn with extra smaller panels and really helps keep the beads distributed well. The fabric is beautiful and there are tabs for using inside a duvet cover, if desired, but it would be too hot for him. We have had absolutely no issues finding sand in the bed, which was a common complaint almost every other weighted blanket had. I haven’t washed it yet, but we have a cat that likes sleeping on it and using the upholstery attachment on my vacuum has kept it fur free.I tried it and within five minutes I had to get out from under it. It was just too much for me and really bothered my feet to have something that heavy on them, regular blankets are fine for me. On the other hand, within five minutes my spouse was almost asleep for an afternoon nap, which never happens. You will either love it or leave it in our experience!11/17/18: thanks to a cat with poor litter box hygiene I had to wash the blanket. I have front load machine and washed it on gentle, as per the directions. I thought it might bunch up and not tumble correctly due to the weight, but it worked perfectly. And it actually dried faster than a regular quilt or duvet because the weight kept it from rolling into a ball. The cotton is a little less smooth than before washing, which is to be expected.

Interesting experience
I bought the 15 lb version for my wife as a birthday present. She is 120 lb back sleeper who is extremely sensitive to any type of disturbance to her sleep routine. She did not like it. She felt like she was being crushed. She was worried about hurting herself when making the bed. She assured me that it must be a 20 lb blanket because it is so hard to move (even though the tag showed it was a 15 lb blanket). She was also concerned that it was a queen size cover and she has a king size bed. So I took it for use on my bed.I slept better than I have in months. Every night I used to toss and turn and wake up and lay there for hours. I am now getting 7 hours of sleep. I think it is great.She decided to buy a 10 lb blanket somewhere else. Still too heavy. We spun it sideways so it is only across her lower half. She now likes the new one.The short story is that a weighted blanket can make for a positivesleeping experience. Buy one and give it a try. If you don’t like it then return it. The caution would be if you are buying it as a present then don’t get it way in advance and use up most of the return period.

I had contacted customer service when looking for a weighted blanket although could not find chemical free cotton that is cool and breathable all year round, available for purchase in canada. They shared they were going make they would notify me when it occurred with great follow through. No surprises with exchange rate, duties and it arrived within a few days after purchase. It is beautifully made and very soft. Obviously good quality and I love that I covers my bed and is long covering my feet as well as being able to be pulled up high to snuggle around my neck, unlike the throw style. Premium quality for sure. Upon opening I felt like I was receiving a gift and absolutely love how they displayed the free gift. Thank you Baloo for making this cozy eco friendly product available for us in canada

Really disliked this the first week or two. Even contemplated maybe getting a lighter weight. But stuck with it and no regrets. I’m loving this. I toss and turn a lot and at first I found it hard to lift all that weight. That has decreased a bit but overall I find the quality of the sleep I’m getting to be better. Just what I needed! And dont expect it to be extremely cooling, it’s still a blanket, but I do find it better than my usual duvet. I usually stick my feet out from underneath but dont do that with this weighted blanket. The only thing is, as soon as I put a duvet cover on it, it was no longer cooling. Otherwise, I love this and encourage others around me to give it a try.
