Check out my BlanQuil Chill review, which also updates this BlanQuil: ua-cam.com/video/GVdcWpXcCoE/v-deo.html
"Do you even lift bro?"
"Ya, I wake up and make my bed"
Lol
Your beds gonna fall through your floor
Bf 109 K-4 if most beds can handle the average American, I assume his bed will be alright with and extra 20 pounds.
😂😂
Jessica Vance his pillow is 10 pounds, his matress 200, and now a 20 pound blanket. That's not including the two people sleeping in said 200 pound bed.
Kaitlyn Holtzman lol that's a lot
Still nowhere near as heavy as a water bed that was all the rage in the 90’s.
I had the old version at home. It's called 7 cats and a chihuahua.
GeminiGold27 -- that seems like the best version!
GeminiGold27 LOL! Only two cats and a chihuahua here.
I think that might be more than 20 pounds! hah.
Freakin' Reviews Sure feels like it!
disgusting
Today's news headline: The world's heaviest bedroom has been found in suburban Las Vegas, Nevada!
Lol that may be true!
Tanner's Tools That blanket looks like big show's type of blanket.
Haaa
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm not even here to buy products, there's like some sense of relaxation or satisfaction watching your videos
c1ntr0n his videos are hilarious to me idk why
Same

Your daughter is a very sweet seeming human and I love her hair color and the fact that she draws is very impressive. She also did a good job at telling us how the blanket made her feel. So thanks for the review!!
You seem like an awesome dad ! Im not entirely sure why, but I love these reviews of things I know im probably never going to buy haha! keep up the good work :)
Thank you!
You're absolutely right, he is an awesome dad!
Yes Noah!!!! I suffer with severe anxiety and panic attacks. I bet it took a lot of courage and lady balls to get on camera and first of all prove you exist (🙄) and secondly talk about your struggles. You’re gorgeous and you definitely have my love and respect hon!
OregonGrownTexasTransplant but r u an emo
Carter Skrtic If I am or if I’m not, what does that have to do with anything?
OregonGrownTexasTransplant that you and that girl have alot of problems
Lol ok Dr Phil, whatever you say 😂👍
Wow that's a good comeback idk how to come back from that
Love having your kids in these vids. Let your daughter know she added a lot and did great and she should be in more
Great review my daughter has autism and she does use a weighted blanket she uses a child weighted blanket she is only 50 pounds so hers is only 6 pounds but you do give great information thank you!
I have actually used a weighted blanket for years (different brand than the Blanquil). They are very beneficial for anyone and I love mine. I have Asperger's and anxiety. I like to wrap up in my blanket when I watch TV if I've had a hard day or am feeling stressed an anxious. I'll also use it to help me sleep if I'm having a hard time at night. Yes they are quite expensive but I think that's just due to all the material they have to use to make one and because they can claim it's therapeutic.
Loved your review and all of your videos. I have PTSD and suffer from anxiety after a medical treatment (Ketamine for CRPS) went wrong. I also get night terrors. I had someone make me a quilt with pockets on each square. There is a loop and hook closure at the top of each square. The pockets allow me to add rice in baggies which then weigh down the blanket. I can take them out when I wash the blanket. I love it! Recently my sister visited and she used the blanket for 10 days. She also loved it. It is summer here in FL but the blanket is great. I would recommend a weighted blanket to anyone who might be struggling with mental issues. 💙💙
Noah did great!! I'd love to see her in more reviews if she is able.
Mellissa Ketamine is great for therapeutic uses, sad that it didn’t help you ):
Great review! I'm SO GLAD you brought up using this blanket on children with disabilities. I have a 5 yr old son who is on spectrum, and I have researched weighted blankets to possibly use for him. Like you said, you're only supposed to go as heavy as 10% of your body weight, so 20 or even 15 lbs is way too heavy for a small child. Throw in the child being non-verbal and/or have limited mobility and this could be a recipe for disaster! So bravo to you for saying this and bringing awareness to the subject because some parents truly dont know these blankets must be used according to the weight of the child.
i love the weighted blankets, i wish i could afford one. my experience with them was while i was in surgery it felt so warm and comfy i asked the dr if i could sneak this one out with me. it relaxed me so much i felt like sleeping during the surgery and i was suppose to be awake.
good to your daughter again and more then just a split second too, she is beautiful and you need to throw in some of her art work in your reviews to help out her career. or try and give her more reviews to be in.
great review as always.
Muse t -shirt? Awesome! You have a good taste in music😉 Great review as always!
Great review! As a person who suffers with anxiety and panic attacks, I'd like to say Thanks Noah, for your thoughts about this blanket. It's greatly appreciated.
Patricia Bowser u look like his daughter
Patricia Bowser
Aren’t weighted blankets also used for autistic people?
Yeah, I got my girlfriend one she absolutely loves it she even said she sleeps so good Now even when I'm gone it Makes her less worried and sleeps very good. She can even sleep in now Haha she Calls me Later than she used to. Glad she loves it hope you got one.
Weighted blankets changed my life, I went from getting 2 hours REM sleep a week max to at least 1 and a half hours a night, I charted my sleep for 3 months and it's remarkable how much having a weighted blanket positively impacted my quality of sleep. I highly recommend getting one to anyone who has sleeping issues, that and using white noise like rain or wind, both helped me immensely.
Going to take your advice 👍🏽 I received my 20 pounds blanket in the mail today and I'll pair it with asmr 👍🏽☺️
I just used mine for the first time, for the past couple of nights, and I definitely had a huge improvement in my quality of sleep!
Your daughter is my hero!! I'm 41 and have panic attacks almost daily.. I'm going to give the blanket at try!! Love your reviews!!
Have you tried buspirone?
Scott Schapiro No . I will definitely research it.. Thank you for caring enough to response!!😊
Respond ...lol
Scott Schapiro whats that?
kelly butterbrodt if that pill works for you that's awesome. Made me feel like I was going to pass out all day. Vistaril works well for me with no side effects.
that blanket looks so soft and warm. I have anxiety and depression and my kids are....not autistic but are very sensory influenced so as soon as I can afford one of these I want to try it out. they have different weights depending on your size so kids would not use the same one you would. Side note to add that I am older (almost 40) and had been without a cat for a couple years and had to talk my hubby into another one because they really are amazing bed cuddlers. their warmth and purring is like a sleep pill. Edited to add that your daughter is adorable.
It's a similar principle to Dr. Temple Grandin's "Squeeze Box" which she developed to help with her own anxiety issues, then adapted for use with stressed cattle. Weighted blankets are highly recommended for children all along the autism spectrum. Great review!
Having your daughters opinion on it was actually super helpful, because my anxiety attacks can get bad. Thank you
Great review as usual!
Just found this video. Thanks for the review. I’m a 57; year old wife, mother of 4, and Mimi to 2 grandsons. I have had problems with panic attacks and anxiety since I was 26. Since hitting the middle age change I also have severe insomnia. I need one of these blankets. 👍🏼👍🏼
Let's be honest, the star of this video wasn't the blanket, it was Noah's hair.
Ben M HER name is NOAH???
Holy pink batman, wasnt expecting that.
Her hair was awesome
Ben M I loved her hair!
Was just thinking how good the colour was
I have a funny feeling you had hair similar to your daughters in your younger years lol
ps love the channel :)
Mine was actually a lot longer that hers lol.
Freakin' Reviews haha that I'd love to see, thanks for the reply. Hope all is well :)
Maybe that mean she'll start shaving her head one of these days.
Matthew Tracey you can actually see his long hair in a recent video (I think it’s a bonus at the end of his water pillow video)
I have lots of panic attacks, maybe a product like that would help me, Thank you for showing me that it exists. Also I love your daughter's style~
pierre11167 weighted blankets should be done by weight. You should look into brands like SensaCalm
CLAM boyz2k17 DICKY STIFFY UH Smh... Would surprise me if he came to Canada besides I'm already taken lol
I hear weighted blankets are good for that. I haven’t tried one yet though!
They would help you but its better to go with a different company that actually customizes them for you. Picking just a weight doesn't help and can actually make it worse. If you get one to light it doesn't provide that comfort but if you get one to heavy for some it can make them have a panic attack.
pierre11167 weighted blankets are quite helpful for anxiety because they apply deep pressure. My therapist actually recommend I get one. Although I'll be making my own because I'm a poor college kid. However 20 pounds is pretty heavy. How heavy it should be is determined by your weight. I forget the actual ratio but I think it was either 5 or 10 percent of your body weight plus 2 pounds? Or maybe just a plain 10% plus nothing. Like I said, I forget.
This is the most realistic view of mental health today. Thank you! You and your daughter are both wonderful.
Your daughter is really pretty and I love her hair❣️ so glad to finally get to see her. I love your reviews and they way you present them! Keep it up!
My daughter has a 12 lb different brand to help with anxiety attacks. She likes it and finds it helpful. They recommend different weights for different size people
The best review channel on UA-cam
Hmm....I have restless leg syndrome. Maybe this blanket could help with that or at least give me a nice workout when I sleep.
Strap a couple dumbells to your legs, and you never have to do leg day again!
I suffer with restless legs and my weighted blanket takes it away within minutes. Highly recommend for restless legs.
That's good to know, I'll look into them, thanks!
Check your electrolytes. I think it’s magnesium that helps.
@@JosephQPublic Thanks, I'll look into that.
I'm considering buying one of these because of my daughter, thanks for the honest review.
We use a weighted blanket for our physically and developmentally disabled son my daughter is adopting. He is 18 so he can kick it off if he wants to. It is just one piece. Very soft velvety material on one side and more cottony soft material on the other so you can choose which trxture you prefer. It has the separated pockets of weighted “stuff” in them just like the one you reviewed. We washed ours on low and dryer it on low a few times so far. It washes up like new. My adopted grandson seems to like it a lot - it calms him down when he is getting upset. He can’t tell us how it feels but it seems to help him.
My 18 yr old granddaughter has anxiety issues and after hearing what the blanket did for your daughter, I am going to get one for her. My granddaughter describes her anxiety and wanting to cuddle a pet when going to sleep exactly the way your daughter describes it. Thank her for sharing that with us.
We got our blanket from BearHugBlankets through Etsy. You get to choose your fabric. The have a lot of choices. They are expensive too but they are made to order. You pick fabric and weight. And ours is washable. Not much difference in price as the blanket you reviewed
Edited to say: it just occurred to me hours after I wrote this, we have a 10 lb blanket and it washed and dried fine in our washer/dryer. But a 20 lb? That’s pretty heavy. I think it could do some damage to your washer/dryer. The 10 lb may not be doing any favors to my appliances but they are still working. Our blanket has washing instructions that says it can be washed and dried. Read your individual blankets labels and think about the wear and tear on washer and dryer.
Also, for children, 10% of the child’s weight or close to it. A 20 lb would not be appropriate for a small child.
Another great review. Your daughter is very pretty. I thought about getting one for my son who has a social anxiety disorder but the price is awful high. If it would really help it would be worth it but I think, for me, it's a pretty expensive gamble. Thanks for your reviews. They are really helpful.
I've been subscribed for a while. I remembered that you did a video on these blankets. My wife bought a weighted blanked, and I like it, but it's lumpy, as in the "weighted" parts aren't evenly distributed. So I came back to your review as I remembered that you did one, maybe the Blanquil is better. I enjoy your stuff dude, you're OK.
I love watching your reviews. Your whole family is one good looking family. I too suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. I also have the restless leg syndrome and I have heard that weighted blankets are suppose to help with restless leg syndrome. I will not be able to afford one of the weighted blankets due that I'm on a limited income. It was a great review and I enjoyed listening to both your daughter and you
Thank you for the nice comment Shannon. Hope to hear from you again!
If you have some basic sewing skills there are some tutorials on UA-cam to make your own weighted blanket which could be far more affordble
Donate it to Shannon.
I didn't know this existed. I suffer with PTSD and panic attacks and am glad to find out about it. (Seems there's quite many of us who do.) Thank you for this. And Noah is a gem. Heartfelt kindness to her. Thank you for the way you treat people always 💙
Great video! It was really cool to see your daughter! Why would someone think you made it up? Why would someone make up having a daughter? Haha so strange! Anyway, I didn't think I wanted a weight blanket, but now I think I might! Thanks, James!!
I guess because I relayed what she said in a prior video, rather than have her say it herself. Who knows? hah. Thanks for watching Ashley.
Ashley Hall Cause some ppl are not very bright.
I wish I could roll my eyes hard enough at some of these internet folk. However, I believe my eyes would pop out and roll around on the ground if I were to achieve that level. XD
I purchased the 20lb Blanquill from Costco - only $100.00 there. I was impressed with the quality, but found that the weight was loose inside and fell to one end. There were no instructions with the blanket and I had not even noticed the zipper at one end. Your video enlightened me and when I checked, none of the corners were tied down. I will now easily fix that problem. I do find that I move less in my sleep. The outer covering is very smooth - like velvet. I do find it to be warm, but it's cold here on the east coast and I find the warmth of the Blanquil a positive. Now that I know how to secure the weight inside, I'm very pleased with it - the quality is high. Very glad I watched your review as I was going to contact the company about the shifting weight. So, in short, I'm a happy customer.
imagine your having a sleep paralysis and this blanket is on top of you. scary.
I am a light sleeper and often wake up at night. I have one of these and I love it. I like the "cuddle" effect and , like you, I don't move around so much. My blanket can be washed, but the instructions recommend using a commercial front loading washer. Even though this is expensive the benefits are worth it.
To make threading the strap through the tab easier attach a safety pin to the end of the strap. It's easier to push the hard safety pin head through the tab.
I have a weighted blanket, a gift from a friend who suggested it for my anxiety issues. It is very effective; now I can't imagine being without one. Like you, I'm looking forward to the colder weather. I do like the looks of the BlanQuil, particularly the way the cover is tied to the weighted part. (BTW, Noah is great; so glad she had a chance to share her opinion on camera. Rock on!)
I’ve always wanted to try a weighted blanket. Might help with my movement, nightmares, and overall anxiety. Especially recently, I haven’t been sleeping well at all. My biggest issue is that I hate sleeping hot, I can do warm, but being really hot means I won’t sleep at all. And the pricing. It’s seem REALLY expensive for something I’m not sure would work for me. I really wanna try one though.
ApexingTheApocalypse try sleeping with a fan or space cooler
I’m really glad the blanket helped out your daughter, I know from personal experience that anxiety isn’t much fun. Great review as always, best wishes to you and your family
Noah is gorgeous!!
In regards of your review, I have aspergers and anxiety and I would like to try this blanket, maybe not in the summer since I don’t have air conditioning but in the winter I feel like it would be perfect. Thank you so muchhh! Was it hard to move around at night though?
Thank you! I wouldn't say it was hard to move, but the weight seems to make me less inclined to move as I sleep.
Your review style is more personal than majority of the other people and I like that :) the car rides and bringing in your own family is such a nice touch. Great review
He seems like such a good dad! Would love to get a gravity blanket
My brother with autism would probably love this product. He likes when our cats and other family members lay on top of him.
I have anxiety and the blanquil really does help.
I'm in awe at the size of that blanket
Its an absolute unit
*GANG. GANG. GANG.*
Justin Y has finally found this channel, we're doomed.
well well
Goddamn you...
Thank you so much.. this review helped settle any anxiety I had about my purchase.....you and your daughter did an incredible job.
She did a great job! ❤️
2¢ Chicks She looks like him and she has the way her father talks..
John Doe His daughter did the video with him..
John Doe Don't you ever watch his video? ?
John Doe His daughter.
How did you get the cent sign? I'm more interested in that lol
I might have to get a few of these if I can find them for a cheaper price. I have anxiety issues, but I mainly want to get one for my daughter. She is mildly autistic, and LOVES covering up with blankets. Even if its hot inside. I bet she would love this thing. I would probably have to find one that is 10lbs though (she is 8).
Your daughter seems like a wonderful person, im glad you got a chance to have her in your video. Yall are a great duo!
I love your daughters hair. It looks great on her. Very beautiful girl. I dealt with anxiety and panic attacks during my early 20’s and know how hard it is on your body, it’s so much more then just the attack. It takes a toll on your body so I hope she heals and stops getting them.
New sub here. You AND your daughter, Noah, did a great review. As I watched, you answered all the questions I had. Looks like a super product if you're camping, not backpacking(LOL!), in the cold.
Now I'm off to watch your other reviews I missed. TY for sharing.
Thanks Debby, and I'm glad we could help!
I see this blanket being helpful if you use Fire during the winter to cool your house and you don't want a fire going during your sleep.
Awesome to see your daughter! She did great. Hope she comes on again!
It makes sense that if your daughter has panic attacks and anxiety she hasn't been in any videos. Nice to meet you Noah! You did great!
This would be great for someone who has autism or other disorders, my son has sensory issues and he always has to sleep with me and not only that, he is getting growing pains so when the blanket heats up a little bit it would be great for him, so I think after seeing this review, I think I'm going to buy this
Leonard Crate that's what I was thinking. I have nerve damage from meds and my youngest has cp with similar issues to adhd/autism. I am so glad to see him doing these.
mordeys, it will be something we would both consider buying now I guess 👍👍
Leonard Crate just wondering, how old was your son when you realized he has sensory issues? How do they present themselves? My 3 year old daughter is not like other kids, so i was wondering, maybe she has something similar. She too cant sleep without me, and looks for physical contact with me trough out the night. She will toss and turn till she finds me and puts her leg on me or till i put my hand on her back or hip. She sleeps a lot calmer with the contact. I don't know if its just a learned habit (i co-slept with her since birth and she was a breast fed baby) or if there is a deeper issue. But during the day she cant stand being hugged or touched, she will push me away... so i just give her a kiss on top of her head instead. She tolerates that better. She is 3 years old now, and the doctor just shrugs and says all kids are different.
SpiritDragoness, well when I realize he had sensory issues he was about 2 month's (now 3 going on 4) he would cry during the middle of the night every night, and either me or my girlfriend (now fiance) would have to get up and hold him for about an hour or just bring him in bed with us, it was very hard for me to do that because I work 11 hour shifts at a music store and I'm a musician (Bass player) so I do gigs with a few other musician friends at top notch hotel lounge's and restaurants so I really have to try hard to fit in my sleep schedule with that as well, and I'm going to start touring the east coast very soon so it's going to be hard to be away for awhile but he was also breast fed until he was about 10 or 11 months old so maybe he's just used to that physical contact, not to sure, I even took him to the doctor to see if he had any disorders like autism or tourette's syndrome like I had when I was young but I grew out of the tourette's but the doctor said he's just fine so maybe he does need that physical contact
Great review and was nice seeing your daughter too. I like to sleep with a small light blanket because I can't sleep if I'm too warm.
Your daughter is beautiful!!!! You guys did great together!! Please do more reviews with both of you!!
Great review once again. I looking to purchase one soon. I have layered comforters on me for the weight. I never knew there was weighted blankets. The bonus in this video is your daughters review! I love her style and love that vest! Where did she get it?
the blanket looks so comfy. awesome review. love your channel.
Ive been thinking about getting one of these. Especially since like your daughter (Whose hair I love!) I also suffer anxiety, and panic more than I would care to admit. It certainly sounds as though it really was working out well for her, and so I definitely think this will be a purchase of mine very soon. Always love the videos, and keep up the fantastic work.
They need to make a full-size blanket!
As some one who also suffers from anxiety and Panic attacks its great to see Noah conquer it all and get on camera!!
Most of the time I don't buy anything of this but this dude is just so cool and seem a great person that I lovr to watch this kind of videos
I have panic attacks and anxiety aswell! I know its not fun! It helps me to know there are others, (thats why i am leaving this for noah). It helps me to read books on it aswell and general success books. I will overcome it soon.
Btw, most kids in that (not a) phase only think their hair looks cool. Your daughter's hair is actually cool.
I've been dying my hair all sorts of crazy colors for about 8 years now. It definitely isn't a phase for some people (;
Noah White some phases are longer than others.
Noah ~ I love your hair! I'm almost 62, have silver grey which I just chunky colored teal, royal and purple. Also, great to finally see you are more than just a mythical unicorn in your dad's videos!
Yeah, she definitely has style
Noah your hair is glorious. I recently said to my mom, "I'm not that same wild looking kid I was way back in High School". When she finally caught her breath from laughing so hard, she told me to go look in the mirror. Looking back was my tattooed self with five different colors in my hair. I may be in the midst of a Guinness Book of World Records level phase. lol
Noah! Love, love, love the hair color! Fits your personality! Your eyes are beautiful, would love to see your bangs feathered so they are easier to see! Your way too pretty to hide those eyes!
Thanks for your feedback along with your dad! Gave us a better idea of who it benefits more! (I never doubted your existence lol!)!
Why is this channel so amazing? Also, just let your daughter use it and we can have her long term review!
Are you o.k.?
That was probably the best review I've seen you do and your daughter is a cutie. I just need to find this blanket now and get it shipped to Ireland in time for winter!
I love seeing how siblings/parents/children look similar. Definitely have loads of the same facial features.
I have wanted one of these blankets for a very long time for my anxiety but they can be so so expensive. I try to use several quilts or heavier blankets to try and get a similar effect but can't get it heavy enough and it gets to hot. thank you for this review!
Here in Bama we would just "Put the dog on"... LOL!
Like the weight not the heat in BAMA. RTR!
I love when the dogs sleep with me (in Alabama too), but it’s so DOGgone hot! Haha
i love your daughters style! also i loved how you guys reviewed it and went into detail, and how it does benefit for both her and you. since i have insomnia, and anxiety as well. i hope that i could try and buy it. :)
I dressed nearly the exact same as your daughter when i was her age! pink hair and everything XD
I've never actually thought about weighted blankets before when considering what I'd need for comfort.. sometimes I fight with blankets when sleeping, for various reasons, so I'll definitely check them out and see if I find a difference in sleep quality.. very good review as usual~! I like it when your family comes onto your videos, you're all so pleasant :) Keep it up~!
Also, her hair is so cool ;o
Your daughters hair is awesome.
No it’s not
jJL I like it
I approve of the hair. \o/
Suprised me he has a child totally thought he was gay lol
@@juliuslinus quit being a turd... her hair is great. just because you like natural blonds doesn't mean you have to hate on dyed hair.
natural color is boring for a lot of people.
Just ordered one. I loved watching this! Some reviews are awkward or poorly organized but this was informative, fun, and I really enjoyed hearing your daughter’s perspective (I also have anxiety problems). First youtuber I’ve subscribed to in ages!
Noah's hair is awesome!
Your daughter is so pretty! She gave such a good review! Very concise and helped understand from a different perspective. Great content! Keep up the good work!
Cool blanket, but I’m only commenting because of your shirt..The Contortionist is awesome lol.. carry on
I'm intrigued by this blanket. Thank you for this review! Also your daughter was great!!!
Lol I bought on of these from amazon for like $20. But it was a 15lb blanket instead.
I can't fucking wait till it's winter so I can actually use it lol. But when I did sleep with it for one night when it was 70F, I had some crazy ass dreams O.o.
This is summers worst enemy blanket because the weight of it, the blanket practically hugs your skin so the heat doesn't escape. So like I said, can't wait till it's winter and it hits -20F
Candi Soda A
can you send the link please?
It was one of those deal sites where you have like 20 seconds to order it from amazon lol
Candi Soda I thought those were scams lmao
It's not 20 seconds because they want your money and run off with it lol.. There are other people who are stalking the site and there's a limited amount of codes they give out that gives you the big discount, so it's first come first serve.
Not to sound like a commercial but... I ordered like 20+ items so far and it's been successful. It's like the dollar store, but online and it's not complete shit. Only like 50% shit and the other is semi-shit, and once in a blue moon you get something like.. a weighted blanket for only 20 bucks.
I just bought a weighted blanket a few months ago. It definitely helps. I bought the 15 pound like they recommended but I'm going to move up to the 20 pound as I like the weight. I'll be getting the blanquil. Thanks for the review.
Your daughter has a really awesome fashion sense and glad that the kitty doesn’t hate it
Nah
Sounds interesting. I don't have anxiety or any of the listed conditions it states it has a theraputic use for, but I move around a lot when trying to sleep, and it tends to take me well over an hour every day for me to fall asleep. Something like this might be a good option for me. Not so much in summer though, even with AC my existing comforter is a bit warm as it is.
Seems it's not readily available on Amazon in Canada though. If it has a retailer, it's probably some sort of exclusive deal. It's also rather on the small side for me, but maybe that would be mitigated by me not moving around so much under it in the first place.
I suffer from existential panic attacks and I found that weighted blankets made it worse for me. It felt like something was laying on me, and not in a pet on your lap kind of way. I get my relief from some bubblegum flavoured CBD vape oil.
Didn't know there was such a thing as that!
Kinda reminds me of when I was a kid and would sleep under my grandmother's hand made quilts ! They weighed a ton but was really nice and warm in the winter ! 😊
Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
Whew thats so heavy... Would drive me nuts. Love your reviews always thoughtfully crafted and entertaining.
I like having as less weight as possible. It was another pro going with a heated mattress pad over a electric blanket I had used for years. When it’s hot out, I’ll sleep on top of my bed and not under anything.
Christopher Johnson j
We use a heavy blanket for my nephew who has autism and down syndrome and it calms him.
Great video like always...
It also helps people with chronic pain
Heather Byerly Could you explain how it does this? I'm curious
I got a 25 LB weighted Blanket for my birthday and it is great. its a bigger one though 80" X 60". does not have the extra cover on it, Zonli is the Brand of mine.
Love your hair! My 11 yr old always sleeps wrapped up like a burrito even in the DEAD HEAT, she would probably love this! Thanks for the info =)
Little Miss Stamper PLEASE go with a lighter blanket! Research the proper blanket to weight ratios, because a 20 lb blanket for an 11 yr is WAY too heavy
Well first off I'm not BUYING the blanket I just think she would like it. Secondly my 11yr old is turning 12 in 2 days and is 5'8 and an athletic build...in other words she is adult sized and would be fine IF I did buy the blanket...which I'm not, lol. Different strokes for different folks, though I'm sure you'd be correct for a smaller, dainty 11-12 yr old though. Thanks for the feedback
Little Miss Stamper your 12 year old is an absolute unit
Damn. Parent that has the grammar of a 11 year old. *Your
Ever heard of auto-correct numb nuts? Rather have the grammer of an 11yr old than the IQ troll.
It sounds like a big hug....glad you reviewed.....been wanting one
Ive been looking into getting one or making one, but my biggest concern is the heat. I already have trouble regulating my temperature from time to time while sleeping, so ive stopped using my regular blanket, though I miss that extra weight. So im not sure how well a weighted blanket would work for me, since I want the weight but not the heat.
ac3ofspades878 you should look into the different materials. Some of these blankets use plastic pellets same as in weighted teddy bears, but there are others too. Where i live, buckwheat husks are popular, natural, eco friendly product. But not friendly with washing though like the plastic pellets are. The soft battings are different too, material and weight, cotton or synthetic. Cotton i guess will be cooler. Try looking for more info as i am not an expert.
Heavy blankets are available without batting -- just cotton cloth so it can be used summer or winter.
I second the buckwheat suggestion
I enjoy your reviews.. I’m considering getting one of these weighted blankets for myself.. It does sound a bit pricey but I think it would be worth it in the long run.. You have a beautiful family James & I think you’re a great Dad.. (Btw, I’m absolutely in love with your Dog Bailey!!!)
