You know that feeling of diving into a hotel bed and getting lost under the abundance of sheets and fluffy duvets? It’s pretty much impossible to replicate that weighted, delicious feeling at home without spending thousands on a whole new luxury bed set – but a weighted blanket is a very close second.

Weighted blankets have been making waves in recent years – and for good reason. Not only do they help keep you warm and cozy wherever you are (totally home office appropriate), they’ve actually been proven to help lower anxiety, symptoms of ADHD, and can help those who suffer from restlessness in the night.

Sounds great, right? We think so! Which is why we were excited to find the Vellux Heavy Weight blanket on major sale over at Amazon today. Not only does this weighted blanket boast a unanimous high rating, it’s also available in a wide variety of weights to suit your particular needs.
