Product Information

For those who toss and turn at night due to stress, anxiety or persistent issues with sleep, the Kocoono LUXE Weighted Blanket is for you. A luxurious option for all sleepers, this blanket features two fabric options when purchasing along with multiple choices of weight. Price: Children's weighted blankets vary widely in price, so it's worth weighing up the pros and cons of a blanket before you buy. Medical concerns

If you decide to use a weighted blanket, it is important it is heavy enough to be effective but not too heavy so it is uncomfortable to use. The maximum weight used must be no more than 10% of your child's body weight. For adults to experience a peaceful sleep at large, these king-size blankets are the best way to create rejuvenating effects and a comfortable experience. Child SizeThe other option you have is a cotton blanket such as Eve Sleep or Sommio. These can be more aesthetically pleasing and as the weight comes from the cotton itself, it looks and feels more like the blankets we're all used to. However, as an official inventor and designer of weighted blankets is considered Keith Zivalich. Zivalich invented the weighted blanket in 1997. Due to their deep pressure stimulation, weighted blankets became broadly popular around the world. In a related commentary, also published in the September issue of JCSM, Dr. William McCall writes that the study results support the psychoanalytic “holding environment” theory, which states that touch is a basic need that provides calming and comfort. McCall urges providers to consider the impact of sleeping surfaces and bedding on sleep quality, while calling for additional research into the effect of weighted blankets.

So, if from the previous example you find the best weighted blanket on the market, it's better to get a 7kg weighted blanket than a 10kg weighted blanket.

Why have both a duvet and weighted blanket on your bed when you could have one? Especially if you're prone to overheating and want to keep your bedding as lightweight as possible. In most cases, weighted blankets will be filled with plastic poly pellets, micro glass beads, steel shot beads or in some cases even sand or grain. We’d suggest steering clear of the organic fillings. As you'll soon see, weighted blankets with organic fillings tend to be a nightmare when it comes to keeping them clean.
