Let me start by saying I actually weigh about 20 pounds more than this blanket is recommended, but my weight is more fluffy (wouldn't say I have muscles at my current 230 pound weight, but that is part of my underway resolution!) I have been using this for 3 weeks, every night. It does take me a good bit of EFFORT to move this blanket around on my twin sized bed. I have included a photo so you can see how little this "queen sized" blanket hangs over the edge of my twin sized bed, for reference. I like that the final surrounding row (pouches in the quilt, if you will) are empty/nearly empty to reduce weight right there (sides, bottom and top, where potentially could be too much weight on neck OR along sides/bottom try to pull the blanket off the bed). In the middle of the night if I wake to go to the bathroom, I do feel like I am getting a mini workout just to leave and re-enter the bed, because of the weight of the blanket.Work stress and life stress with caring for my mom, I'm just not sleeping well and finally decided to get a weighted blanket. I always joked I needed a blanket with chain mail inside, but the expected noise put me off. This says there are glass beads inside (can't tell, but maybe) and there has been no shifting noise at all in the three weeks I have been sleeping with this blanket - SILENT BLANKET.I expected this to feel "snuggly" based on other reviews and other products, but instead I liken it more to the comfort that is given to a pet when you put them in a loud sound (lightening), calming type jacket/wrap. The first night sleeping with this weighted blanket was weird, I may not have moved the entire night (I toss and turn: all over the bed, laying on either side, back and even stomach at times). Using this weighted blanket, I don't get the fake-human comfort another actual person would provide, but then I also don't have to fight them for the covers, space, etc. in the bed. If I were in a larger bed than my twin bed, sharing my bed with another person, each of us would need our own blanket, in my opinion. While in a situation where two people are sharing a normal blanket, the normal blanket lofts over the space between the two people - instead the WEIGHT of THIS blanket is going to bring the blanket down, leaving less usable coverage space between the two people unless they remain co-joined the entire time sleeping, which is very unlikely.They say you can wash this blanket, but I will NEVER do so because of the weight. This will only ever get spot cleaned, not that I have yet gotten anything on m blanket; my blanket remains clean. This blanket weighs 20 pounds, is filled with tiny itty bitty glass beads according to description and feel, and should that break apart in my washing machine, it would be like bringing 20 pounds of sand from the beach and putting it in my washing machine - never going to happen. Washing machines cost too much and a blanket is relatively cheap to replace comparatively.I went with the 20 pound grey color because weirdly different blankets have very different purchase costs both when I bought it 3 weeks ago and still now, gray (on sale right now for $34.99, regularly $45.99) was a lot less than the navy and blue color that would go better with my comforter, but they are asking $58.99, regularly $69.99 for Navy and Blue color, with the top price being $79.99 regularly (rose color isn't on sale, yellow on sale asking $75.99). As you select colors, keep an eye on the SIZE and WEIGHT as there are LOTS of different options so you are comparing similar. It is sort of weird that there are such price differences between fabric colors, most of which are same color on both sides (but not all). Now that I know I really like my blanket, I do wish I had paid more to get colors better suited for my basic bedroom decor, but I told myself 'gray goes with everything' so I know I will just live with this color because it was cheaper.All in all, I am happy. I am definitely spending more time SLEEPING when I'm sleeping, and that was the whole reason I bought this weighted blanket. There have even been a couple of nights where I slept the entire night, not even getting up to go to the bathroom, which I didn't think I was physically capable of doing since it had been so many years getting up at least a couple times each night. I may have the added benefit of building a little more muscle strength using this weighted blanket, but muscles are needed for healthy living, so also a plus. If you are reading this far into my review, then just get it. I'm very satisfied, so I am giving this 5 of 5 stars.In case Amazon comingles my blanket's review, here is my blanket's description: yescool Weighted Blanket for Adults (20 lbs, 60” x 80”, Grey) Cooling Heavy Blanket for Sleeping Perfect for 190-210 lbs, Queen Size Breathable Blanket with Premium Glass Bead, Machine WashableI hope my review helps someone else.

My husband surprised me with this. It is the BEST thing that’s ever been brought in my bed. Even my kids stay fast asleep throughout the whole night. It’s the perfect weight. It doesn’t make it too hot. The size is perfect for me and the kids. I highly recommend.

Went on a random Amazon scroll and found this weighted blanket. Debated a few days and then went for it. I have the 20 lbs, queen sized, orange & gray color option.I was suspicious about the 'cooling' part. I have found that the blanket does not cool my body and my body does not warm the blanket. It's like the Squish without the sweat.This is my first weighted blanket, so I can't compare to other weighted blankets quality. However, mine has survived both my nightly use and playful children. It is a sensory friendly, non shedding, simple design. The stitching is holding up well, the beads are staying in their assigned squares. The sizing appears to be accurate.If you are impartial to color, check the different color options. When I bought mine orange was the cheapest.5'10" 155#

My autistic son told me that he liked sleeping with heavy blankets, so I decided to buy him a weighted blanket. I followed the provided weight guide and purchased a 7-lb blanket. Unfortunately, as we found out after the blanket arrived, the length was too short for our needs. My son is tall for his age, and 41 inches (the only available length for 7-lb blankets by this company) barely goes up to his chest. It also doesn't provide enough weight for him to make much of a difference. I understand that the guidance in the weight guide is conservative by necessity, for the sake of safety, but it simply didn't work well for us. With that being said, I did like the material and quality of the blanket (even though it isn't cooling, as advertised, and we couldn't use it during the summer), so I plan to order a size up from the same brand.

This replaced another weighted blanket I bought for almost double the price and returned. This is one is immediately better. It's soft, heavy, and the perfect size for the blanket to be. A much better price than the other blanket, which wasn't soft and had other issues too.
