nuvirtu Weighted Blanket for Adults Double or King Size 200x150cm. Cotton Weighted Blanket 9Kg, Glass Beads. Reversible Anxiety Blanket Helps Reduce Stress and Anxiety

I ordered this simply because I really like the feeling during colder nights of having more bed coverings, it's great to feel snug. Of course during warmer seasons that has the high downside of being too hot, so I finally got around to trying something I hadn't realised even existed before briefly hearing about them a couple of years ago, weighted blankets.Can't believe I took so long! Whilst it's not the exact same feeling as e.g. two quilts, it does provide much of the same great feeling, and without the stifling heat. I haven't tried in really hot weather as I've only had it a few weeks, but so far it's been great and totally worth it - I definitely won't be going back to the old way!The blanket itself is as described, the weight is evenly distributed so although it's heavy when you pick it up all at once, it feels very different when you're underneath it. The quality seems great, certainly had no signs of any problems, and I popped it straight into my existing quilt cover with no problem. I actually found it easier to get into the cover than a normal one due to the weight.You will notice the difference in feeling for the first couple of nights, and then it will feel completely normal, but in a good way!Overall, very glad to have made this purchase, and would really recommend Nuvirtu to anyone who wants to go the weighted blanket route.

I bought this for myself as I do find it hard to fall asleep and a friend had said she had one and it helped her so I thought I’d give it a go. I have a king size bed. The blanket just about covers the top of it and I bought the kingsize version. To me it would sit better on a double mattress. It is very soft and when you hold the blanket in your hand you think that it’s maybe gonna make you feel crushed underneath it but it doesn’t. It’s so soothing and calming like someone cuddling into you. I didn’t buy a cover for it as I use a flat sheet then the weighted blanket and either a duvet or bedspread one top depending on the weather. It has improved my ability to fall asleep and my children are now pestering me to buy them one. To me this is a great buy if you are unsure if you will like the blanket and are afraid to be put a whole lot of money. It’s definitely good value for money and I’d recommend this product to anyone. It’s just a pity it’s not available in lots of other colours but since I put it under my duvet this is not an issue for me but might be if someone just wants to use the blanket on its own. It’s got the heat of a 4 tog duvet.

This blanket is truly amazing. I've suffered from anxiety for years and I really struggle to fall asleep. This has been a total game changer for me. It has been surprising how much it has helped me relax and feel settled. This has meant I have fallen asleep much faster than I used to. If you are considering buying this for someone who suffers similar issues like me then I would 100% say go for it. It's been an absolute godsend. Who would have thought that a blanket could have had such a positive impact on how l feel.

Love it im even going to buy one for my son for his Xmas present because he has problems with sleeping. I usually sleep 4hrs a night ive been going to sleep at 12.30am and not getting up till 10.10.30am ....i would highly recommend it. Its a shame no one sells the covers for it like a duvet cover.

I definitely have calmer sleep, not as much tossing and turning. I noticed that my temperature is more even during the night, not too hot and not too cold. I love the feeling of the weight of the blanket on me. It's a gentle weight, not a feeling of being overwhelmed by the weight. I recommended it to a friend and she put in an order straight away.

Nice quality blanket.

Very pleased the blanket is a good weight for my young adult with special needs. It is soft and doesn’t get over heated. She enjoys sitting under it and it does calm her down.Would recommend

Really happy with this blanket! Heavier than I expected but I’m loving it. Sleep has greatly improved since it’s arrival. Delivery was quick. It was well packaged and is of good quality. Delighted to recommend.
