20 Real Amazon Picks: The Best Weighted Blankets You Can Actually Buy

Twenty real, currently-listed Amazon weighted blankets across five categories — cooling glass-bead and bamboo-viscose blankets, cozy minky and sherpa blankets, kids' blankets and lap pads, premium and luxury picks, and budget glass-bead options. Every item below is a genuine, real product with its own real photo, numbered so you can actually work through the whole list.

Short answer

Pick by sleeper weight, heat and use. A common rule from Sleep Foundation is about 10% of body weight. Hot sleepers should look at items 1 to 5 with cotton or bamboo-viscose shells, cold sleepers at the plush items 6 to 9, and children only at items 10 to 13 after checking weight limits with a pediatrician.

How to choose

Questions and answers

How heavy should a weighted blanket be?

The Sleep Foundation says a comfortable weight for a healthy adult is generally 5 to 12 percent of body weight, with about 10 percent feeling best for most sleepers. Hot sleepers may prefer lighter.

Which weighted blanket is best for hot sleepers?

Look at items 1 to 5 here, which are glass-bead or bamboo-viscose blankets sold as cooling. The Sleep Foundation names cotton and bamboo-viscose among the most breathable shell fabrics, and says microfiber and plush fabrics run warmer.

Are weighted blankets safe for kids?

The Sleep Foundation says they are generally considered safe for children at least 3 years old and 50 pounds, after checking with a doctor, and the blanket should not weigh more than 10% of the child's body weight. Any weighted blanket can pose a suffocation risk for younger or smaller children, so ask your pediatrician.

Who should talk to a doctor before using a weighted blanket?

The Sleep Foundation lists people with breathing disorders such as asthma or COPD, cardiovascular conditions, obstructive sleep apnea, or claustrophobia. This is general information, so ask a licensed professional about your situation.

What is the difference between glass-bead and other fills on this list?

Most items list glass beads. Item 9 uses ceramic beads and the Bearaby (item 14) has no bead fill, with its weight coming from the knit yarn itself.

What size weighted blanket should I get?

Sizes here run from a 29x24 inch body-sized blanket (item 17) to 60x80 inch queen blankets. Check the dimensions against how you will use it, such as on a twin bed, a queen bed or a couch.

Can I wash a weighted blanket?

It depends on the model. The Sleep Foundation says some all-fabric blankets can be machine washed, others have a removable washable cover, and spot-clean-only ones are hard to freshen. Check the care instructions in the listing.

How long does a weighted blanket last?

This page does not test durability, so we cannot say. The Sleep Foundation notes that cheap fabrics and plastic pellets tend to wear out faster in household machines.

What if the blanket I buy is too heavy or too warm?

Choose a lighter one or a cooler fabric. The Sleep Foundation recommends buying with a sleep trial or return window so you can send back one that is the wrong weight, so check the seller's return policy.

Is a 50 lb weighted blanket right for me?

Only for a very heavy sleeper. Even at the 12 percent upper end of the Sleep Foundation's range, a 50 lb blanket matches a sleeper of over 400 pounds, so most people should choose a much lighter one.

How do I check price and availability for a weighted blanket?

This page carries no prices or promotions on purpose. Open the listing for the current price, stock, fill and return terms, and read recent reviews for shifting beads and sizing.
