PREMIUM PLUSH BLANKET SERIES

The Gravity Weighted Blanket is filled with evenly distributed glass beads. There are three colors available (navy blue, white and grey), so if you’re gifting this one it should fit in with most bedroom decor themes. Our tester stated that once he acclimated to the extra weight, he woke up feeling more refreshed and ready to take on the day. Bear in mind, it works at its best during the colder months, and its removable micro-plush cover (suitable for machine washing) feels divine to snuggle beneath. What's more, it locks in the heat should you ever feel chilly at night. The original Gravity Blanket is the best choice for anyone looking for a relaxing way to ease stress before sleep and to calm an anxious, restless mind in bed. And if your sleeping habits could use a little tweaking, this premium weighted blanket might be exactly what you need. In the world of weighted blankets, the original Gravity Blanket is perhaps the most famous and the one most likely to be gifted.

PREMIUM PLUSH BLANKET SERIES

You could fasten it inside a compatible duvet cover you already own (it has a series of loops fitted to the blanket to help it fit securely), or buy a YNM washable cover to slip over the top. Our only annoyance is that you can’t wash this blanket by hand or in the machine, so it's spot-clean only. The effect is highly calming, and certainly took the edge off our stress levels at the end of a busy day. The beads sit within individually stitched pockets, sandwiched between layers of Oeko-Tex certified cotton, to distribute pressure evenly across your body. Like many others in this guide, the YNM Weighted Blanket reproduces deep pressure stimulation (DPS) with a glass bead fill.

The brand has produced an easy guide to what weight you should choose for your body, as well as if you're planning on sharing the blanket with your partner (you'll need the biggest size and weight). Like the Luna above, the seven-layer YNM Weighted Blanket is available in a range of patterns, sizes and weights. We've been using YNM’s super-plush and snug weighted blanket for a few months now and love it for sleeping at night and for relaxing naps on the sofa in the day.
