Generally, weighted blankets that weigh 4 kg (8.8 lbs) and under are made for children, while most adult weighted blankets weigh upwards of 5 kg (11 lbs). Share the warmth! A Big Hug single heated blanket is of course lovely for yourself, but also a wonderful gift to give to your mother, father, grandmother, friend or girlfriend. For example, on a birthday. But other great moments to give a Stoov® as a gift are also holidays like Christmas. Who wouldn't want a pillow or blanket to keep you warm during the colder days? Some people with claustrophobia, who usually wouldn’t feel comfortable with weighted blankets, can even experience some benefits with lighter weighted blankets. Existing data on the benefits of weighted blankets in healthy adults is limited. Still, one study has found that when using a weighted blanket, 60% of patients fell asleep faster, 40% of patients slept longer, 50% of patients had increased sleep efficacy, and 40% of participants snored less (Stevens & Roby, 2019).As the second most expensive weighted blanket on this list, the Simba Orbit feels very good quality. It’s about the size of a single duvet and only comes in one weight. But, unlike the pricier blanket from Emma, this one comes with a removable cover included. Silica glass beads are a bit more eco-friendly than their plastic counterparts since they are fashioned from sand and can be repurposed for the most part. On the other hand, they cannot be recycled and they are a bit energy-hungry to produce. Cotton is also not too keen on water and energy consumption during the manufacturing process.

Some weighted blankets are made with expensive materials like silk or cashmere, while others are made with more affordable materials like cotton or polyester. 🌱Yes, the same goes for the Stoov® Big Hug; not only are they lovely to use, but you also save energy! After all, with the wireless heated blanket, you don't heat the whole room around you, but only yourself. You can easily turn your thermostat down a degree because of this, and you save 7% energy with every degree. So Stoov® heated blankets are not only better for the environment, but also definitely better for your bank account. Do you have any medical conditions? - If you have any circulatory, breathing issues or diabetes you should avoid using a weighted blanket. For example, people with heart disease or respiratory problems may find it difficult to breathe when using a weighted blanket. ❤️ Otherwise known as a gravity blanket or an anxiety blanket, a weighted blanket is pretty much what it sounds like: a blanket filled with small glass, sand, or plastic pellets that distribute anywhere from 5 to 35 pounds of weight across your body. The idea is that this form of deep compression, this cocooning, will relax your body and nervous system, leading to better sleep.
