    A weighted blanket is one of the best purchases you can make. My wife detests ours so I get to double it up for double the weight and keeps her away from my side of the bed, wins all round.

    I meant to add that the Three Camels have this as the lowest price so far

    Wonder how many they sold at £103?

    Do people use this instead of a duvet, or ontop/underneath?
    Debbony's avatar
    Instead of during summer, on top of during winter.

    Just recieved mine. To clarify for others, the glass beads are contained within each quilt 'pocket' so amount of clumping is limited (although they definitely do clump within each pocket as would expect).
    Been wanting to try out a weighted blanket for a while and at this price very pleased to be able to do so - thanks OP! : )

    I've been thinking about one of these for a while, I got sent a promotion from Amazon if I use a local pickup point I will get £5 off an order, so I've applied it to this so got it for £21
    Heat added

    I have to say they are not very warming, I used to have sherpa one which was great, this one sometimes just makes you colder as during lower temperature glass balls inside get cold so ideally you need another blanket under.
    JoeKing5321's avatar
    I don’t use mine to keep warmer. It’s got other benefits. I place mine above my duvet.

    Any good for people who have Fibromyalgia?
    Mich8ll8's avatar
    I have fibromyalgia and been using my weighted blanket for years and couldn’t do without it now….I find it eases the pain and keeps me from being too restless through the night so helps to keep me sleeping longer now.
  8. deleted2720528's avatar
    What does the loop thing do?
    A_BHot's avatar
    You can buy a cover for it (like a soft minky duvet cover) that has bits of string that you can attach the loops to, so it doesn’t move around inside the cover. (edited)
  9. kannaiah's avatar
    I don't understand how the weighted blanket helps. Also this is not washable.
    scuttle's avatar
    Ever heard of Google?
  10. Fankaria's avatar
    Why would amazon expect people to rate the lightweight aspect of a Weighted blanket? This gets 2.5/5 for lightweight rating
  11. Laurynas_Misevicius's avatar
    Hmmm, wonder if having this being weighted would help my missus sleep better, she’s such a light sleeper

    Never had one - what does it mean by loops for cover etc? The sizes seems odd from a normal double or kind duvet?
  14. rollerturtle's avatar
    Ordered one of these and it seems to be good so far. For what it's worth, my 'sleep score' from my watch has gone from 70ish average to 90ish the last two nights when I used it.
  15. LRD3's avatar
    I’ve never understood the meaning or the wanting of a weighted blanket. What the purpose of it apart from, obviously, being heavier than normal blankets?
    ChampEon's avatar
    I'm wondering the same thing
  16. skidz73's avatar
    It’s meant to help with insomnia and other disorders such as anxiety
  17. Proveright's avatar
    Thanks OP. Was going to buy the Fortnite 8kg one then saw this.
    I am a great fan of weighted blankets, keep you warm and promote deep sleep.
    Hopefully the stitched panels will help as my existing one all the beads up moving to one side and you have to shake it to get them back (edited)
  18. PhoenixS's avatar
    This is a strange question but would the weight in the blanket stop a person from kicking in their sleep? About a week ago I was dreaming of playing football and kicked my cat in the head I checked the security cameras after his reaction to see what had happened. I love him to bits and never want that to happen again.
    jarvester's avatar
    Best use of VAR this season. What was the verdict? (edited)
  19. Wibblefish's avatar
    How hot are these compared to say a 10tog duvet?
    99bakerc's avatar
    The ones at IKEA say tog 2.5, assume similar
  20. kerridge0's avatar
    One of the concerns with this type of product is whether the source of the weight (in this case, glass beads) stay in in one place or move, meaning that the weight isn't evenly distributed. If they do move, is it possible to move them back again. I had a quick look and at least two reviews state that the beads do move and it appears that they can't be moved back, at least easily. When that happens, it's not much use? So I haven't pressed fire on this just yet...
    matman050988's avatar
    If it’s anything like the picture and my goose down duvet (never again! I now HATE feathers) they are sewn into small squares. So even if they do move around in that area. You probably won’t notice.

    Great Price.
  22. youngchap's avatar
    Oz it actually really good and really cheap price too?
  23. Smm0's avatar
    Giving it a try. Only weigh 72kg myself...might be a bit much. Ms is only 40kg.. shes gonna get smushed by it. Oh well.
    Joanna_K's avatar
    40kg? That's only 88lbs so curious about this

    Any deals on a size fit for a king? 🫅

    This one is UK king size

    Got a couple already but bought anyway as this is mega cheap
  26. mz13's avatar
    Should I get this for a single bed?
    Minty's avatar
    Depends what size bed you need it for?
  27. turbo_c's avatar
    If it's good enough for Bezos, then it's good enough for me (edited)

  30. Weimaraner's avatar
    Might get one to try , already woke up in the night with sore joints/ muscles so guess it will either make it worse or better

    What does sore joints indicate?

    How do you clean this?

  32. PD2K79's avatar
    Thanks - wanted one for ages so have given this a go
  33. mwa's avatar
    Yeah a shame this isnt washable otherwise I would have snapped it up, my Silentnight one is safe to go in the wash
    A_BHot's avatar
    I wouldn’t imagine putting something this heavy in your machine would be a good thing. Put it inside a cover like you would a normal duvet.
  34. deleted1945554's avatar
    Spot clean only? Seriously, this is going to ming within a few months.
    codebee's avatar
    Why would it? It sits on top of your duvet. It’s not touching you.
  35. ran123ran's avatar
    Does the frame expand to accommodate bigger table tops? Wanted use ou existing IKEA table top.
    mudcat's avatar
    Are you sure you're in the right thread? Personally, I wouldn't recommend sleeping on an IKEA table top but I guess since this is a weighted blanket you might also like really, really like a firm bed?
  36. A_BHot's avatar
    Arrived today. There are less beads in the outer perimeter squares, probably so you don’t take your eye out when moving in the night!
  37. JoeKing5321's avatar
    Amazon had it out for delivery today by Hermes or so it says. They said they attempted delivery no chance. I’m sat in the front room, ring doorbell active. Think the 10KG weight of it put them off. Annoying twits. 
    shrapnel's avatar
    Hermes (Evri) are the worst for this. Seems to happen on at least every other delivery but most other couriers seem to have no issues. 
    Last time it happened, they uploaded a black screen for the photo to prove that they attempted delivery, but the location was miles away from where I live.  
    It’s so annoying especially when you stay at home to accept a parcel!
  38. SJ01's avatar
    Okay could not get on with this lol
    A_BHot's avatar
    Takes a few nights to get to it I think. I really like it.
