These blankets are great. After 1 month my boys are sleeping better and are more focused while reading on the couch under it. My husband and I also love it when we get a chance to use it. It's soothing and relaxing. We had a minor issue with one and I reached out to the owner and she was amazing, it is the customer service that we all wish every company had. She even emailed a couple of weeks later to ask how my boys were enjoying their blankets. I cannot recommend this blanket enough. If you are considering one, this is the one get. You won't be sorry!

On someone else's recommendation, we bought this heavy blanket for a child who has trouble falling asleep. He loves it. It works. It's soft, comfortable, and soothing. The heavy weight is really nice. It helps him sleep better. We would absolutely buy it again. Note the size, though. It isn't big. It doesn't even completely cover him, but this hasn't been a problem.

I love this blanket. More importantly, so does my 7-year old! Before getting this, he often needed me to stay with him for significant time at night while his mind settled and before he could drift to sleep. No more with this wonder blanket! He loves it and asks for his 'special blanket' before we even start book time. He's sound asleep within 5 minutes of lights going off. The blanket itself is great quality too. Very soft and comfortable material.

My daughter, who struggles with bedtime and falling asleep, slept through the night for the first time in a long time and I really credit the Huggroo blanket for that accomplishment! We've tried weighted blankets in the past, but she much prefers this blanket b/c of the softness and texture of the fabric as well as the way the weight is distributed throughout the blanket. Moreover, I was super pleased with the quality of material and workmanship of the inner and outer layer of the blanket. As an occupational therapist, I understand the benefits of the deep touch/pressure the weighted blanket can provide. I will definitely recommend this blanket to my clients.

I am a dentist and many times in the office we have anxious patients, especially children. In the past, we would use the x-ray vest to cover them for calming purposes, but it isn't the most comfortable. We wanted something weighted that was warm and soft. The Huggaroo blanket fits our needs perfectly! We have had 3 year olds fall asleep during dental treatment. It also washes very easily and maintains it's softness. The quality is excellent and the material is so soft and snug.

This weighted blanket is amazing! My daughter has sensory issues and aspergers. This blanket is allowing her to get much better sleep, which is a win-win for all of us. Her anxiety is quickly decreased as soon as the blanket is placed. I would highly recommend this blanket to anyone. The easy care and very soft cover make this item an excellent buy.

I bought this as a gift for my niece who has little ones. She ended up using it for herself. Her mom is a Pediatric Speech Pathologist who works with children all the time with various issues and she told me the blanket was one of the nicest ones she'd ever seen. Both she and her daughter were impressed with the quality and attention to detail including the soft outer fabric, invisible zipper, and inner and outer layers that can be washed separately. My niece sent me this thank you note: 'I've really enjoyed using the weighted blanket. It's silky soft, washable, and the extra weight helps me relax after caring for two small children all day. It is also small enough to cover most of me without intruding on my husband's side of the bed. Thanks so much!' A WINNER!

This blanket has changed my life! I had never tried a weighted blanket before and knew there was some good research out there showing the many benefits of these. I deal with a lot of daily anxiety and have a lot of pain from Rheumatoid Arthritis. I have always had trouble sleeping. I would flip and flop and toss and turn constantly trying to get into a restful sleep. I would always wake up so tired because I could never relax and settle into a deep sleep for long. It was a constant negative cycle. Enter Huggaroo, and things started changing from the very first night! The soft, plush exterior felt amazing to the touch. The weight isn't too heavy at all and it did not make me hot or feel overheated. The gentle weight of this blanket caused my body to calm down and start relaxing very quickly. Before I knew it I was asleep. Here's the best part...it was quality sleep! Sleep I had been missing out on and craving for years! I just couldn't believe how well my body responded to the gentle, calming weight of this blanket! I cannot recommend the Huggaroo enough for anyone who struggles with anxiety and trouble relaxing/sleeping. Another great feature of this blanket is that it isn't too large. This makes it easy to transport to another room or even pack it for travel. It's also washable and that is very important to me. I hope this review is helpful to anyone who is considering this blanket. It has made a big difference in the way I sleep and feel the next day! Worth every penny.
