Cottonblue’s weighted blanket uses a 15-pound fill for a queen size. That’s a deliberate choice. It lands in the recommended 10% of body weight range for many adults, providing that grounding pressure without feeling restrictive. The weight is the core function, but the fabric is where you’ll notice the daily difference.

The top is a 260 GSM jacquard weave with a subtle arched pattern. It feels substantial and soft, not slick or synthetic. Flip it over, and the 220 GSM sherpa fleece is the real star for cooler nights. It’s a plush, skin-friendly layer that makes the blanket feel like a wearable hug. The construction prevents the glass bead fill from shifting, so the pressure stays even whether you’re reading or sleeping.

The rust pink color is warm and muted, fitting into most decors without shouting. That sherpa side is exceptionally cozy, but it does generate warmth. This blanket excels in fall and winter, or in rooms with strong air conditioning. For hot sleepers in summer, you’ll likely use it with the cooler jacquard side up.
