What Our Customers Say
"I bought this for my husband who has trouble staying asleep at night. He is a hot sleeper, and wanted something that was 100% cotton and wouldn’t be too heavy. He loves it! We live in South Louisiana and it gets warm. We have not washed it yet, but so far, the color and quality are exceptional. Very pleased with the attention to detail."

"Just what I needed!
I have always needed some extra weight on my body at night without getting hot. This blanket fits the bill perfectly! It reminds me of quilts on winter nights during my childhood. It’s such a comfortable, secure feeling without feeling trapped. Sleeping much better!"
Beverly W.
Verified Buyer
"I am even more thrilled than I thought I would be and I think that has a lot to do with how comfortable this is even in our hot, muggy June! I sleep hot, but this has been a game changer. So soft and the perfect weight for me."

Verified Buyer
Washer & Dryer Friendly
Skip the dry cleaners completely—just drop the blanket in your washing machine on a cold cycle with gentle detergent, and tumble dry on medium or low heat. King size blankets should be washed in a commercial machine due to their size.

FAQ's
How do I use a weighted blanket?
There isn’t really one right or wrong way to use a weighted blanket. You can layer it with your regular bedding to sleep under, rest it on your lap while at your desk, or snuggle with it on the couch while you unwind. With a smaller option like the 12lb Throw, Mini, or Daydreamer, you can even stand with it wrapped around your shoulders.
Weighted blankets administer deep pressure touch to the body, which sets off a number of positive responses in the brain, releasing mood-bursting serotonin, while lowering the heart rate. This physical-mental-emotional connection can create a sense of calm, improve anxiety, and help quiet the body's stress responses.
Even if you don't suffer from diagnosed anxiety or severe stress, a weighted blanket can still be a rich addition to your life, just by providing access to deeper relaxation. They are also a wonderful addition to a meditation or yoga routine.
Sleep is one of the most important things we can do for our mental and physical health and well-being, and one of the most profound benefits of a weighted blanket is to those who suffer from insomnia. We are gratified to hear from so many customers who have finally been able to sleep, after years of struggle. But to be in need of a better night’s sleep, you don’t necessarily have to suffer from insomnia.
We all have a profound need for sleep, and sadly most of us don't get enough. A weighted blanket can help you fall asleep more easily, sleep more deeply, and awaken less often.
If you’re a nervous traveler, have trouble sleeping in strange places, or like to bring something familiar with you on the road, a weighted blanket is like taking a little natural travel-therapy with you, for a quick access to some calming hormones and a soothing embrace.
How should I use and adjust to my new Baloo weighted blanket?
Your new weighted blanket may feel surprisingly heavy when it arrives. That's normal! If you'd like to ease into using it, here's what we suggest:
Start by using your Baloo on your lower body for the first few nights, then raise it up to your chest.
You can also try using it for small increments of time on the sofa at first.
Give yourself one or two weeks to adjust to the new sensation.
Over time, your body will adjust to the feeling of the added weight while you sleep. You'll continue to receive the benefits, even when you stop noticing the weight.
We offer a 30-day window for returns and exchanges, to give you time to really experience the effect of sleeping with a Baloo weighted blanket.
How do I layer a weighted blanket and duvet cover with my other bedding?
Because our blankets are designed to add weight, and not warmth, we generally recommend using your Baloo as an additional layer with your existing bedding.
We suggest layering it above your top sheet if you use one, but underneath any other comforter or blanket that you use for warmth.
This can also allow you to easily adjust the temperature by removing your other blankets if needed.
We do offer linen duvet covers to fit our 12lb, 15lb, 20lb, and 25lb weighted blankets and comforters. While not at all necessary, our linen duvet covers are a luxurious addition to your Baloo weighted bedding. They offer the softness of premium linen in soothing color options, along with added protection and easier washing. Crafted from the highest quality stonewashed French flax linen, the covers are available in sizes that perfectly fit our throws, blankets, and comforters.
If you are a very hot sleeper, we suggest using the blanket without a duvet cover. Although our linen is very lightweight, it does add extra layers.
Please select your size carefully, as our weighted blanket duvet covers for weighted blankets and weighted comforters are sized differently.
Each duvet cover includes fabric ties sewn into the seams, where they match up with loops sewn into the weighted bedding. The larger the product, the more ties and loops we include, to ensure a secure connection.
Why are there no glass beads in the edges of the Weighted Comforter? And which side is the "top?"
Because of the unique design of our Weighted Comforter, the weighted area is actually asymmetrical. There is one side that is weighted all the way to the edge, which is designed to lie at the head of the bed, where it will cover your body while you sleep. The other three sides are filled only with cotton batting, and are meant to go along the sides and foot of the bed.
We indicate this weighted edge with small white tags that are sewn into the very top seam.
The small white tags show that this is the side that should be placed at the head of your bed, near your pillows.
Though larger in size overall, the weighted area of our comforters is very similar to that of our weighted blankets. We center the weighted glass beads only in the area that rests on top of the bed, since that's where you will actually feel the sensation on your body. The benefit of this design is that there's less weight pulling off the edge of your bed, and less excess weight overall.
How should I clean my Baloo weighted blanket?
Baloo weighted blankets are safe for the washing machine and dryer. We recommend washing the blanket by itself, using cold water on the gentle cycle and drying on low heat. Please wash one blanket at a time. For additional information about the vegetable-dyed Weighted Blankets, please see below.
Due to the variety of washing machines on the market, please check your model for its specific capacity before washing your blanket, and keep in mind that the blanket will weigh more when wet than dry. We recommend taking the king size blanket and all weighted comforter sizes to a commercial washer.
Our blankets dry surprisingly quickly, so they don't need a long dryer cycle; we suggest checking on them after 20 minutes. Please do not dry clean or iron, as it will damage the blanket. We do not recommend using bleach.
Baloo's Mini Weighted Blanket and Vegetable-Dyed Weighted Throws are dyed with 100% natural plant-based materials, using elements sourced directly from nature. One of the qualities of natural dyes is that they change over time.
Some color change and fading with use & washing is normal and to be expected, as a natural characteristic of the vegetable dyes used.
For the first few washes, please wash on its own, using a gentle detergent and cold water, to help preserve the natural color. After the first few washes, launder with similar colors.
Dry with low heat. Our blankets dry surprising quickly, so check on them after 15-20 minutes so as not to overheat.
The use of spot stain treatments may alter the dye color. For stains, try soaking the blanket in cool water with some gentle detergent added, before washing.
Please note that Hope Rose, Luna Blue, and any Silver Sage blankets purchased in 2022 or later are not vegetable dyed.
