First off, this is a well made knitted blanket that breathes. I have both this one as well as a regular weighted blanket using glass beads for weight, also made by this company, in bamboo with multiple duvet options depending on the temperature. Comparing the two, the knitted version provides a more uniform weight distribution than the beaded version. The knitted version is also cooler than my other with a Minky duvet on it—I have not compared it with my bamboo duvet as it is currently too cold for it. The weave of the knitted version does allow ones toes through—not my favorite for sleeping—so I’ve found myself using it more for cuddling up while reading in a chair, but if I’m hot flashing and my Minky version is too warm, the knitted one is a great fast option rather than changing duvets in the middle of the night. I enjoy and use both of my weighted blankets. If trying to decide between them, the glass bead version is cheaper, the duvet covers give one ways to change the warmth rating and easily keep the blanket clean, and I find it better for night sleeping (don’t get body parts stuck through the knit). The knitted version is texturally pleasing, breathes far better, has more uniform weight distribution without “pressure” points, but obviously has the same sorts of issues that one would have with any knitted product. I do not regret either purchase.
