Does anyone here own a weighted blanket?

Was thinking of one with the idea that it might help me sleep at night.

used to have one but it felt too heavy, ended up with melatonin

Oh ok.

I do like the additional weight. More worried that it might get too warm or something.

You can buy weighted ones that are designed for hot weather, they woven out of massive threads with large holes for air flow.

Edit: but I think there are some now that are cooling too, if you search for 'Australia hot weather weighted blanket'

Yeah like that!!

That sounds like what I have.

Itโ€™s woven like thick rope in a cross code pattern and thereโ€™s large holes with the way itโ€™s woven as well.
