YNM Weighted Blanket Review (Winter 2022)

The YNM blanket is designed to be comfortable and effective while staying within the affordable price range. To facilitate the pursuit of effectiveness, the blanket uses premium glass beads as its fillers and a bamboo viscose fabric that helps the body breathe easier. These glass beads are hypoallergenic and are sewn into pockets which are then stitched together to make the blanket proper.

Overall performance and functions

The performance of the YNM weighted blanket, as reviewed by customers, has been exceptional. As regards their quality of sleep, many customers have pointed to the effectiveness of the blanket in increasing the average length of their sleep. The blanket has also been reported to induce deeper, less interrupted sleep.

Alongside the improvement of the quality of sleep, the YNM blanket has been advertised as capable of helping with anxiety, and this has been proven to be true as well. Customer reviews sourced online shows many customers affirming the effectiveness of the blanket in curbing anxiety and helping to usher in a state of mind and mood that is suitable for sleep.

Available sizes

When it comes to choosing weighted blankets, the size and weight should be seriously considered. This is true for the YNM blanket, which uses a deep pressure stimulation therapy to produce its function. Proponents of this therapy have claimed that the weight of the blanket applies pressure to certain areas of the body and stimulates the release of serotonin. As such, the blanket should be big enough and heavy enough. Yet, it shouldn’t be too big or too heavy.

The YNM weighted blanket comes in three major sizes. You could purchase a single, double, or king-sized blanket. Regarding the weight, the blanket is available in five weights; 12, 15, 20, 25, and 30 lbs. Kids are, however, not left out as there are also some weighted blankets available for children that weigh 5, 7, and 10 lbs.

Remember, though, the weight of the blanket is quite important. Too light and you don’t get your money’s worth in quality sleep; too heavy, and you risk being too uncomfortable even to sleep. The recommended weight for a blanket should be 10% of your body weight for optimal function and safety. This advice is best followed as one of the key safety requirements for using a weighted blanket is that it should be light enough for easy movement by the user.

Material

The YNM weighted blanket was designed with a lot of emphasis on the quality of sleep it promises and the potential problems weighted blankets could come with. One of such problems is that of too much heat. It is uncomfortable to sleep while sweating, and this blanket strives to prevent that by being more breathable. For this reason, the cover material used is 100% bamboo viscose. This makes the YNM blanket a much more suitable choice than a weighted blanket for people who overheat in bed.

Glass beads are highly appropriate for use as fillers because they are hypoallergenic, washable with a machine, and suitable for use with a dryer. They contribute to the prevention of overheating as well because they are cool to touch and to cap things off; they are environmentally friendly as well. Win-win for you and the environment!

Purpose

Weighted blankets have been advertised as effective at reducing anxiety and stress, restless leg syndrome, and ADHD while helping to make sleep more comfortable. The YNM weighted blanket has been proven to back those claims up more than adequately. You don’t just have to take my word for it, though, and you could always check out other customer reviews online as well.

The blanket uses the concept of deep pressure stimulation, which proposes that added pressure to certain areas and regions of the body help to relax the nervous system and trigger serotonin release. The blanket produces a pressure that is similar to how one feels when hugged.

Maintenance

The YNM weighted blanket is made in by filling little square pockets with the glass beads that provide the pressure and stitching all the pockets together to create the blanket properly. As such, it is self-explanatory that a key maintenance practice would be checking the stitching regularly.

This should most especially be done after washing the blanket as the spinning in the machine could cause some problems. It is important to reiterate the fact that the blanket is suitable for washing in a machine and dryer, and this is just a simple piece of advice that might help to prolong the life of your blanket.

Colors

Regardless of the color of the blanket, you prefer to purchase, the efficiency of the blanket doesn’t change. However, if you are specific about the color you may like, this weighted blanket comes in blue-grey, light grey, and fresh mint.

Durability and warranty

The materials used in making the YNM weighted blanket are quite durable and effective, and they confer on the blanket as a whole that durability. For one, the bamboo viscose utilized is top quality material. It is stronger, more breathable, and more absorbent than cotton, which means that it is less likely to rip or leave you sweating at night.

There is a warranty period of a year for every YNM blanket that is purchased. This may be necessary if you notice any defects on the blanket upon inspection. If such a situation occurs, you can return the product, within the warranty period, for a new blanket or a refund.

Also, if after the purchase of the YNM weighted blanket, you are not happy with the service, you could return it to the manufacturer after 30 days. In such a case, the blanket must be returned in new condition.

It should also be noted that in the event of a return, the blanket must be returned to the manufacturer in the original packaging and the return shipping costs are to be covered by the customer. For further information, you can contact the manufacturers at [email protected]

Price tag

Generally speaking, weighted blankets on the market are priced at between $100 and $300. Despite this, the YNM weighted blanket is affordably quoted at $179 and could fall even lower if discounts are available.

This is, however, not an indication of lower quality. The blanket provides more than good value for its worth. For one, the bamboo viscose used is one of the highest quality fabrics available, and the glass bead technology utilized is arguably the best filler used in making weighted blankets.
