Started with a 15 lb blanket (I'm about 150 lbs) but eventually could barely even feel the weight so I decided to buy a 20 pounder. it's so nice!!

Bought this for my wife. It took her some time to get used to sleeping with the weight. Now she loves it. I have a different weighted blanket, but the Bearby is much nicer. I confess I'm a bit jealous.
BBearaby8/20/24Hi Timothy!👋 Thank you for sharing your wife's experience with our weighted blanket. The transition to a weighted blanket can indeed take some adjustment, but the long-term benefits of improved sleep quality and relaxation are truly rewarding. 💙
- Stacey C.Verified Buyer8/9/24ReviewingCotton Weighted Blanket Cloud White / 15Rated 5 out of 5 starsBeautiful blanket
This was a splurge for me! I love sleeping with heavy comforters in the winter...but I cant in the summer.
This is a great substitute that provides the weight without being so hot. It's the right size for my side of the bed too.
Love it
BBearaby8/14/24Hi Stacey!👋 I'm thrilled to hear that our weighted blanket has become a beloved addition to your bedtime routine. The ability to enjoy the comforting weight without the added warmth is truly a game-changer, especially during the summer months. Welcome to the Napperhood! 💙

Frequently Asked Questions
How do weighted blankets work?
Science shows that sleeping under weight improves sleep quality, lowers stress, and eases anxiety – and when those things are better, everything’s better!
Here’s a breakdown of the science that lies underneath our cozy and calming Nappers:
- Activates the effects of Deep Touch Pressure (DTP)
- Increases serotonin to make you feel happier and more content
- Increases melatonin to lull you into blissful slumber
- Decreases cortisol to help reduce anxiety and stress
- Mimics the effects of ‘grounding’ or ‘earthing’
- Mimics the sensation of a warm hug

What are the health benefits of weighted blankets?
The most significant health benefits of weighted blankets include improved sleep and reduced feelings of anxiety and stress.
The benefit of a heavy knit blanket is the even weight distribution, which helps to extend the comfort of Deep Touch Pressure (DTP) to your full body.
What is the ideal weighted blanket weight?
The recommended weighted blanket weight is 10% of your body weight. For someone who weighs 150 pounds, your best bet is the 15 lb weighted blanket. For someone closer to 200 lbs, we recommend our 20 lb blanket.
If you’re in-between weights, we recommend to bump up to the lower weight option. Our Nappers are available in 15, 20, and 25 lb weight options.
We also have an 8 lb weighted blanket, the Nappling, designed especially for kids.
How do you wash a woven weighted blanket?
Our Nappers are machine washable!
- Wash separately in cold or lukewarm water (max 90 °F)
- Select either the delicate or permanent-press cycle
- Use only gentle or mild detergent
- Avoid using fabric softener
- Tumble dry on low heat – please note it may take more than one round for your Napper to dry completely
- Never hang your Napper up to dry – it’ll stretch!
Make sure to check your washing machine’s weight capacity before washing your Napper. Our delightfully heavy blankets are great for deep sleep, but it’s essential to check beforehand if the washing machine model you have can bear the full weight of your blanket.

What is the difference between the Cotton Napper and the Tree Napper?
It’s simple: if you like it cozy, usually don’t get overly hot at night, share the bed with a furry friend, and you want a Napper you can use all year round – the Cotton Napper is for you.
If you tend to sleep hot and often find yourself waking up feeling a bit sweaty every night – the Tree Napper is your new best friend.
Our original Cotton Napper is made from 100% sustainably-farmed cotton. Our Tree Napper is made of TENCEL™, a fiber made from the wood pulp of trees grown and replaced on specialized tree farms. Our TENCEL™ comes from eucalyptus wood pulp, making it extra cooling and completely biodegradable.
While the Cotton Napper and Tree Napper both have the same braided blanket design, they’re made with different materials to suit different snuggle preferences.
