ZonLi is a U.S.-based bedding product manufacturer. The company’s flagship product is the ZonLi Weighted Blanket, which is constructed with several individual layers. A middle layer of glass beads provides the weight, with layers of microfiber and solid polyester for extra padding. The blanket also has a cotton shell with additional layers of cotton backing.
Duvet covers made of cotton, polyester minky, and rayon from bamboo are sold separately. The cover is not available for children-size blankets. ZonLi offers blankets weighing 5, 7, 10, and 12 pounds for children, and 15, 17, 20, 22, 25, and 30 pounds for adults.
Most experts recommend using a weighted blanket that represents 10 percent of the sleeper’s body weight, meaning ZonLi’s selection should accommodate any child or adult between 50 and 300 pounds.
The ZonLi Weighted Blanket provides above-average insulation due to its multi-layered construction. The materials are also fairly durable, giving the blanket a reasonable expected lifespan. ZonLi offers free shipping to customers in all 50 states and accepts unused returns within 30 days.

As you can see, weight selection is a key strength of the ZonLi Weighted Blanket. Zonli offers a wider range of weights than most competing brands, meaning most customers can find a suitable blanket regardless of their bodyweight. The blanket is also fairly durable thanks to its layered shell and padded interior.
The ZonLi weighted blanket insulates against the cold very well and is a good option for colder weather. However, the padding layers tend to block airflow and trap heat. As a result, it may feel too warm in hotter temperatures. The blanket is hand-wash or dry-clean only, making it somewhat inconvenient to clean.
