Hush Weighted Blanket Review

Hush Weighted Blanket Review Breakdown

Hush stands apart from many competitors by offering a wide variety of sizes and weights. The Hush Classic model comes in four sizes and six weight options, making it a suitable blanket for adults of virtually all weights and sizes. The Hush Classic Blankets are also several inches longer and wider than many other weighted blankets on the market, which allows them to cover the entire bed surface with extra length to drape over the edge.

The Hush Classic contains a glass bead fill that is more breathable than most plastic pellets commonly found in other weighted blankets. The fill is densely packed into stitched pockets to ensure even distribution. A zipper system securely fastens the inner blanket to the duvet cover, preventing the inner blanket from bunching up within the cover.

With its variety of size and weight selections, the Hush Classic is a good option for sleepers who desire blankets that are lighter or heavier than those offered by brands with more limited choices. It may also be ideal for shoppers who have an aesthetic preference for blankets that fully drape over the bed.

Materials and Options

Hush blankets vary in size and weight depending on the model. The Hush Classic and Hush Iced 2.0 come in teen, twin, queen, and king sizes, ranging in weight from 12 to 35 pounds. The Hush Weighted Throw comes in one size and weight, while the Hush Kids offers the smallest and lightest options.

Each blanket is filled with glass microbeads to add weight, hug the body closely, and allow air circulation. All Hush models come with a removable duvet cover that attaches to the inner microfiber blanket using a zipper system. The materials of the duvet cover vary between models, including minky polyester, microfiber, bamboo-derived viscose, and cotton options.

Blankets currently come in one or two colors, with the exception of the Hush Kids, which offers additional kid-friendly patterns.

Pricing Information

Weighted blankets typically cost anywhere from $100 to $300. Hush blankets hover around the middle of this range. The Hush Iced 2.0 is more expensive than the Hush Classic due to differences in the duvet cover materials. The Hush Kids and Hush Throw models cost less than the Hush Classic and Iced 2.0 because of their smaller sizes. King size blankets, which are the largest size option, are the most expensive.

All Hush blankets come with a removable duvet cover, whereas other brands may sell the duvet cover separately. This is important to keep in mind when comparing prices between different brands.

While there are lower-priced models on the market, Hush’s higher price-point may also be attributed in part to its use of quality materials and construction, which can help ensure greater longevity. Purchasing a quality blanket with a higher price tag may ultimately be more budget-friendly than buying a low-quality option that you need to replace sooner.

Weighted Blanket Performance Ratings

A weighted blanket’s performance depends on several factors. Some criteria to consider are the quality of the fill and shell materials, weight options, durability, breathability, and fill distribution.

The Hush Classic Weighted Blanket uses high-quality materials and construction, which means it will likely last longer than many blankets on the market. Its glass bead fill is more breathable than plastic pellets to help promote air circulation. Keep in mind that the insulating properties of the minky duvet cover may offset the airflow. Sleepers who run hot may prefer to use the blanket without the duvet cover or purchase the Hush Iced 2.0.

Hush offers an excellent array of weight options to meet the needs of sleepers of many ages and sizes. The company also produces a blanket model designed for children and a separate model engineered for cooling.

How Heavy Should My Weighted Blanket Be?

The ideal weight for a weighted blanket is ultimately a matter of personal preference, but the general wisdom is to pick an option that is roughly 10% of a sleeper’s body weight. If the blanket is intended for two people sharing a bed, a slightly heavier option may be preferable since the weight will be spread out. It may take some trial and error to eventually determine your perfect blanket weight.

The Hush Classic comes in six weight options, ranging from 12 pounds to 35 pounds. Sleepers of most ages and sizes are likely to find a weight that fits their needs regardless of their personal preferences.

For those on the market for lighter weighted blankets, the Hush Throw is just 8 pounds. The Hush Kids model comes in smaller sizes and is available in a 5-pound option, which is the most suitable option for children. However, check with your child’s doctor before using a weighted blanket. It’s important to ensure that your child is old enough to use a weighted blanket safely and that the blanket weight is appropriate for your child’s size.
