I don’t know anyplace else to put this. It does qualify as a gadget.
It’s a weighted blanket. Thing weighs 15 pounds. I think it’s filled with sand? Feels like it.
I know they try all kinds of BS advertising. Bottom line with me was I wanted a heavy blanket. Remind me of when a child. Blankets felt heavy and comfortable. I wanted that back.
I can’t say I gotta sleep with it. Can or not. Do like it when I do. Had one night I couldn’t sleep. Just lay there and not fall asleep. It did help me to fall asleep.
I’d add a picture. But no big deal.
I have all kinds of luxury in my sleeper. Two Bamboo pillows. Two heavy blankets. But they don’t have weight to them like this weighted one does. Glad I got it.
Yes a gadget.

Amish make great blankets,,,I believe you are referring to "grandmas feather bed", and that's long gone.

Thanks, I've been on the fence about picking one up.
WesternPlains and Pamela1990 Thank this. -
My son has a weighted blanket and says he loves it. Not me anything more than a sheet, it's on the floor.

Weighted blankets do a world of good for autistic children. Makes them feel safe, among other things.

I have the opposite feelings on weighted blankets. Makes me feel I can’t breathe, it comes from my childhood. Now when I see one of these “communist blankets” as I call it, I start feeling like I’m running out of air.

Inspector.
WesternPlains and BennysPennys Thank this. -
My daughter has one too. Helps her with a few issues. I guess the theory is it’s a call back to the feeling of being swaddled as a baby.
Something so simple.
Been thinking of getting one.BennysPennys Thanks this. -
I have the window open (winter included) with half the blankets kicked off. Cool idea though.
