I have a weighted blanket, but it's not quite the right weight for the person – it's significantly heavier. However, the person says they've been sleeping better under it.

I weigh 53kg, and last year I was gifted a 12kg weighted blanket. For about the first week, I slept wonderfully with it. I'd wake up drenched, though. Then, night after night, I started sleeping worse under it. I'd wake up and couldn't fall back asleep, couldn't even toss and turn properly. So, I stopped using it. I wanted to buy one of the same type but lighter, but I still haven't.

Elena Shilova Yes, this is excessive weight for me. I don't know whether to get 5kg or 7kg. I read that dividing your weight by 10 is the best option.
