The full review
How much weight you want
For weight, 10-15 lbs is right for most adults, the rule of thumb is roughly 10% of your body weight. I went with a 15 lb YnM and it's been perfect.
It was at its current price and has held up great for about two years, which is the real test. It's way cheaper than a Gravity Blanket or the other fancy brands, and honestly I can't tell what the extra hundred-plus dollars would have gotten me. The glass-bead fill is evenly distributed so it doesn't clump.
What I liked
- A fraction of the price of premium brands
- Held up well over two years
- Even glass-bead weight distribution
- Multiple weights and sizes to match you
What to know
- Runs warmer than a normal blanket
- Heavy to wash and move around
- Pick weight by body size, too heavy is uncomfortable
- Duvet cover sold separately
Common questions
What weight should I get?
Roughly 10% of your body weight, for most adults that's 10-15 lbs.
Is a premium brand worth it?
In my experience no, the YnM held up two years and I can't tell the difference from the budget blankets.
