Q: Will this fit a twin or queen size bed?
A: A weighted blanket should not drape over the sides of the bed. So this may not be queen sized, but could be used for a single person on a queen bed.
submitted byMFree - 6 years agoA: Will it fit twin or queen
submitted byPat Kelsey - 6 years agoA: It's only 4ft wide by 6 ft long. It's a throw size so definitely won't fit a queen might be usable on a twin.
submitted byPW - 6 years agoA: Twin bed. I use it on my queen but only for myself.

Q: what is it filled with to weight it? Glass beads?
A: 93% glass beadsand the other is polyester fiber. It’s a little noisy.
submitted byRockme100 - 6 years agoA: It’s definitely not noticeably noisy! The beads move when you move, settle when you settle. Less than the sound of sheets and blankets rustling when repositioning.

Q: Is this safe to use? Will it get me sick? Being made of glass and all?
A: Hi there, the glass beads are sewn inside of the blanket so you will not have any direct contact with the glass beads.
submitted byAmerican Textile Co - 5 years agoA: The glass beads are microscopic and leak through the fabric constantly. You will have glass beads everywhere. I'm returning mine because of this.

Q: Can this be used for children? I have a 72lb child with ADHD and not sure what weight to use
A: The recommendation for weighted blankets is 10% of body weight +1-2lbs. So for a 72lb child, you’d want a blanket between 7-9lbs.
submitted byRainCityMom - 6 years agoA: It's recommended that you use 10% of their body weight. So about 7-8 lbs.

Q: Do the beads stay evenly distributed? Some weighted blankets are described as being box sewn to keep the beads evenly distributed. I didn't see that listed here.
A: The beads do stay evenly inside the blanket.
submitted byPaula - 6 years agoA: This blanket is box sewn so the beads don't empty to one spot on the blanket.
