Bearaby is a manufacturer of weighted blankets and comforters. Our review will look at the company’s flagship product, the Classic Napper. This innovative weighted blanket is constructed entirely from chunky organic cotton yarns coated in elastane. The blanket does not have a cover or shell.
Bearaby offers weights of 15, 20, and 25 pounds. Sleepers are urged to use blankets that represent roughly 10 percent of their own body weight, meaning Bearaby’s weight selection should accommodate sleepers who weigh between 150 and 250 pounds.
The Classic Napper offers exceptional breathability due to its open-knit design, which allows air to pass through freely. The organic cotton yarns are also highly durable, giving the blanket a longer-than-average expected lifespan. For added convenience, the blanket can be washed and dried in any household machine.
