help Weighted Blanket (Bearaby) FAQ
What weight should I get for a Bearaby weighted blanket?
Bearaby recommends choosing a blanket weight that is approximately 10% of your body weight—for a 150-pound person that would be the 15-pound option. They offer weights ranging from 10 to 25 pounds, and going too heavy can make the blanket feel uncomfortable rather than comforting.
Does the Bearaby weighted blanket make you hot at night?
The Bearaby blanket is specifically designed with an open-knit, chunky weave that promotes airflow, which is a significant advantage over traditional weighted blankets that use solid fabric shells filled with glass beads. This breathable construction makes it one of the better options for hot sleepers who still want deep pressure stimulation.
What materials does Bearaby use—are their blankets organic?
Bearaby offers their signature knitted blanket in a cotton blend and also produces a version called the Tree Napper made from TENCEL lyocell, which is derived from eucalyptus fibers. The Tree Napper is marketed as the more eco-friendly and cooling option.
Can I machine wash my Bearaby weighted blanket?
Bearaby blankets are machine washable because they do not contain loose filler beads—each strand of yarn is weighted throughout the knit. You should wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and dry flat or tumble dry on low, though the heavier weights may be too heavy for a standard home washing machine.
