Read Full ReviewThe Luxome weighted blanket gives you a compression-like feel against the body, which I think is comforting and calming after a long day—like a hug. The feel of the fabric varies depending on which material you choose. We tested out the minky cover option, which had a soft, plush, velvety feel to it.
It’s relatively heavy but doesn’t feel overwhelming on the body. It also responded to my body movements well and wasn’t too hard to manipulate once I was underneath. I wouldn’t have guessed there were tiny glass beads inside if I didn’t already know they were in there.
We put the blankets we review to the test and evaluate them over six performance categories, from proper weight distribution all the way to how comfy they are. Once we’re done, we let you know all the details, so all you have to do is decide whether or not it’s right for you.
I was very impressed by how evenly distributed the weight of this blanket was. The insert is filled with super tiny glass beads and polyester batting, which give the blanket its weight. Thanks to the gridded stitching pattern across the blanket’s surface, the weighted fill stays evenly distributed throughout once you lay it across your body. Luxome says that this blanket is “optimized to a perfect weight per square foot,” and I agree with that claim.
You can choose from eight different material/color options, which include Bamboo Lyocell, minky polyester, or a combination of both materials. The blanket also comes in three size variations: medium, large, and extra large, which all go up in weight with each size option.
I tend to sleep on the colder side and like to have extra blankets, so I didn’t find the Luxome to be overly hot. It did the job of keeping me cozy as I slept. However, my partner is a hot sleeper, and he said over time he started overheating and had to change into lighter clothing to be comfortable underneath.
If you’re a hot sleeper, be wary of this option since it doesn’t have any cooling technologies built in to intentionally combat heat retention. If that sounds like you, try out the Bamboo Lyocell cover option since it’s a lighter, more breathable fabric.
Regardless of which cover fabric you choose, you can feel the quality of this blanket just from its touch. It’s durable, soft, and the material feels luxurious. Plus, the quality is good enough that you can wash it without fear of pilling or stretching out from use.
The only reason I docked it a half point was because this blanket doesn’t come with any active cooling technologies, which affects hot sleepers.
The Luxome weighted blanket is fully machine washable, regardless of which cover you choose. The quality materials and high thread count make the fabric durable enough to withstand a machine wash on a delicate cycle and then tumble dry.
Luxome is an American company based in the midwest. They offer same-day free shipping on all products within the contiguous U.S. If you’re ordering from Alaska or Hawaii, you’ll be charged a small shipping fee. The free shipping and trial period are both on par with competitors’ policies, but Luxome lost points for not having a warranty. Most companies offer at least a one year warranty on blankets.
Bamboo Lyocell
This material feels like a combination of cotton and silk, and is the lighter and cooler option of the materials offered for this blanket. Lyocell Bamboo is moisture-wicking, organic, and uses an eco-friendly process for manufacturing. It’s similar to TENCEL, but Bamboo Lyocell is specifically made with bamboo pulp.
Minky (Polyester)
This is the same fabric type as fleece, microfiber, and flannel. It’s the warmer of the two fabric options. If you choose the combination of materials for your cover, one side will feature the polyester, and the other will have the Bamboo Lyocell. Think of this as a “best of both worlds” option.
Percale Cotton
The inner blanket is made of 100 percent Percale cotton, which has a thread weave that’s durable and has a crisp feel.
Glass Beads
1mm glass beads are evenly distributed throughout the inner blanket and give the blanket its weight.

Nope. As long as the weighted blanket you’re sleeping under is a comfortable weight and you don’t feel overly compressed, then you should be just fine! Your weighted blanket should be around 10 percent of your body weight, so a 150 lb person should choose a 15 lb blanket.
Yes—weighted blankets have been shown to promote relaxation and alleviate stress. If you’re someone who tends to feel anxious at night, the compression from a weighted blanket can trigger your nervous system to release hormones that promote a feeling of calm. That means a lower heart rate and faster sleep.
There is a general rule that a weighted blanket should be roughly 10 percent of your body weight. Avoid sleeping under a blanket that’s more than 12 percent of your body weight, especially if you have mobility or respiratory issues. This rule is especially important for children.
The Luxome weighted blanket is a great option for those who want an extra cozy blanket to share with a partner, child, or pet. The multiple weight, size, and material options allow you to pick the blanket that works best for you and your lifestyle.
Although this blanket is not the cheapest we’ve come across, it still has a good price point considering the quality materials. If you’re a hot sleeper, either try the breathable Bamboo Lyocell cover or take a look at the GhostBed weighted blanket for a lighter, more breathable feel.
