Aricove Cooling Weighted Blanket for Adults, 30lbs, Queen/King Size, 80x87 inches, Silky Soft Bamboo Viscose, Machine Washable, White

I wanted so badly to like this . I don’t !! There is nothing I like unfortunately. First off , it is far far too light to give that necessary hug feel, and I am a tiny 4ft 11 lady . So this was the weight suggested . It is so light, that when I tried it as a lap blanket on the couch,one time , it did not get the desired affect. However ! What I like least , the fabric is slippy and slidey . It’s horrid . I tried it only one night on the bed , and it simply was sliding all over and off my body . The glass beads , kept shifting also. There was no hug , they did not stay where needed. I had purchased the duvet cover. I dislike it as well. It has a course Cotton feel . It is horrid to feel next to the skin . There is no ah from this blanket for me, it is an ick! I am sending it back .

I love this blanket - I bought the 17lb one - had 2 great sleeps so far. Really well made!

The blanket itself is ok. You must turn on aircon to use the blanket if you live in a tropical climate. The main issue is that the blanket is too heavy and slippery to "stay in shape" in a duvet cover, even with the 4 corners tied down together with the cover. It often ends up piling up to one side. It is easier to just put the blanket on top of a sheet.

I've been researching cooling weighted blankets for a long time - not because I wanted the best on the market, but because (1) I'm desperate for a good night's sleep and (2) it seemed impossible that something heavy could also be cool. It defies logic to me. Several sites said the Aricove was the best on the market for several reasons, i.e., washable, quality of product, great customer service, etc. I bought it because it was one of only a few that came in 10 lb weight and wasn't for kids with a cutesy pattern. I have a Queen size bed but I only needed the blanket on my side of the bed and I weigh 110 lbs. I ordered the Aricove blanket on Monday afternoon and received it the next morning around 7:30 a.m. Amazingly fast delivery. To say I was skeptical was putting it mildly, but again, I'm desperate for a better night's sleep and use everything to help including CPAP machine, Melatonin, Valerian root, keeping my room cool, no caffeine after 8 a.m. - but to no avail. I still wake up once every 1 or 2 hours every single night. My sleep is not a deep sleep and I get up tired every day. I was tired of being tired. The Aricove weighted blanket is extremely well made and came packed beautifully in it's own carrying case and had instructions for use: start by only pulling the blanket up to your waist, relax and breathe deeply, etc., then move it up to your shoulders when you've given yourself time to adjust to the weight. I did as instructed and it felt ok, but since I toss like a fish out of water all night, I was concerned that the weight of the blanket would wake me up every time I tossed and turned and I'd end up feeling trapped and claustrophobic. Wasn't I pleasantly surprised when the first time I woke up was 6 hours later! I've not slept 6 hours straight in more years than I can remember. Shockingly, the blanket WAS cool -- not only was it cool to the touch, but my entire body felt cooler and I never woke up with night sweats like I always do. The weight was perfect and I felt like I was in a cocoon but not at all trapped or too weighted down. All my skepticism flew out the window. It still amazes me that this weight can be cooling, but it definitely is and I'm a very hot, menopausal sleeper. The only negatives about the blanket are: (1) I can't imagine ever sleeping without it now and (2) it was even harder getting out of bed this morning because all I wanted to do was luxuriate in it's snuggleness - and yes, I know that's not a word but it sure fits how I feel under this amazing blanket! PS: I've now slept with the Aricove blanket for over 2 months and love it even more now than when I first got it - if that's even possible. It's much hotter out now, but this blanket still keeps me cool at night. I still sleep through the night without getting up 2-3x like I used to. Cannot say enough great things about the Aricove blanket. Love it, love it, love it.

For years now my wife has always talked about needing a certain amount of weight of blankets to help her sleep. While that works fine for winter, summers are always difficult because it's a balance of weight versus heat. After reading quite a bit on weighted blankets and reading multiple dozens of reviews on various blanket offerings, I settled on the Aricove blanket for her. Her height and weight were perfectly suited for dimensions and weight recommendations of this blanket. Ten pounds sounds "light" when you see blankets that weigh up to twice that, but it really is a noticeable weight and the 48" width is nice personal size so that in our king bed, the blanket covers her only. It took some getting used to (as seems to be the norm) but she really likes it now. The quality is great. I wanted something with smaller bead pockets to keep the bead distribution even and the bamboo material is soft and feels very comfortable to the touch and it isn't hot. That was a big concern, but between the fabric and the glass beads it lives up to that claim of being pretty cool. It comes with a travel duffel bag which will be handy on trips. As soon as it came out of the box you could tell that the quality is there and, honestly, I don't see how a such a blanket can be made and imported to my door for only $40 and still be decent. I opted for quality over price. The weight is great for her to sleep and seems to keep her comfortable and from moving around. I guess it holds her down a bit which helps improve my sleep as well. Ha! So while there are "cheaper" alternatives in weighted blankets I think you have to factor in quality, performance, and life expectancy into the overall purchase. In that case, I do think that this blanket is well worth the money.

J’ai acheté une 48x72 mais j’aurais du acheter plus grand. Tout le reste est parfait. Le tissu est confortable, sa température est toujours parfaite. Elle me réchauffe lorsque j’ai froid et me rafraîchit lorsque j’ai chaud. Elle est parfaite pour les femmes en ménopause! 😂 Sans blague elle a changé mes nuits…JE L’ADORE! 😍
