Weighted Blanket All-Natural 100% Cotton 48in x72in 12lbs - Light Grey

In this review of the Bare Home weighted blanket, the bottom line is simple: this 48in x72in, 12lb all-natural cotton blanket is best for someone seeking a calming, cozy sleep aid that feels like a gentle hug. The blanket is notable for its nontoxic glass bead filling and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification, which makes it a good pick for people with sensitivities who want reassuring materials and even pressure without irritating chemicals.

Key Features

• Soothing comfort: The blanket uses distributed weight to reduce tossing and turning and help most users fall and stay asleep.
• All-natural materials: A 100% cotton shell and irritant-free glass bead filling are gentle on sensitive skin and avoid harsh dyes.
• Secure construction: Reinforced stitching and small inner pockets keep beads from shifting, preserving even pressure through the night.
• Corner loops: Built-in corner loops allow attachment to a weighted blanket duvet cover to protect the blanket and simplify cleaning.
• Care guidance: Machine wash cold on gentle or hand wash, and hang dry to maintain cotton feel and extend the blanket's life.
• Safety certification: OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification confirms the blanket is free from many harmful chemicals.

Who It's For

This blanket suits adults and teens who prefer a natural-fiber cover and want the calming pressure of a weighted blanket without synthetic fillings. It is especially useful for those who run cold and appreciate extra warmth, or anyone who values certified chemical-free textiles.

It may not be ideal for people who need a heavier or larger blanket than 12lb and 48in x72in provide, or for those who want a blanket that hangs over mattress sides; follow the guideline to choose roughly 10% of body weight for a proper fit.
