When I purchased this product I was skepitical that it would even help me to sleep, as you'd think the weight would be more suffocating. Boy, was I wrong! Since buying this blanket I have slept peacfully every night. No joke! I have restless leg, PTSD, and insomnia. I am super grateful I found this product. It, to me, does everything described and more. I cannot express enough what this one weighted blanket has done for. It's truly AMAZING!!!
