That $80 weighted blanket was a total letdown for me
I caved and bought one of those heavy blankets from a big box store near Tacoma after seeing everyone rave about them online. First night I woke up sweating like crazy even with just the lightest cover over it, and the fill bunched up into these lumpy piles by morning. I tried it for two weeks straight, hoping my body would adjust, but it just made my shoulders feel cramped and my sleep worse. Ended up selling it for $20 on a local swap page, so I basically paid $60 to learn that weight is not my thing. Anyone else find a decent alternative that's cozy but not suffocating, like maybe a fleece throw with a different type of fill?
