Weighted blanket
2 comments

Agreed just don’t go too heavy. I did and I am unable to move under it.
Does it really makes a difference ?
Depends on the kind of sleeper you are. Personally I can't sleep even in the summer without some amount of weight from fabric on me, which I know doesn't make much sense but it is what it is.

My roommate tosses alot when sleeping and a really heavy blanket keeps her still, which she says helps her get a deeper sleep

I have the same preference, especially when falling asleep.
I can't use it at all, but my partner loves it and now packs it when we go on trips.
I have a 7kg weighted blanket that sits on top of my regular blanket at night and I love it. I feel like don't wake as easily, and overall sleep better. And it's so comfy.
A 15 lb weighted blanket is the best sleep I’ve ever gotten
It feels more cosy, but I can't really say if it makes me sleep better.
