This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

They're great, the whole point is they give you extra weight of a comforter without additional heat. Cleaning is easy, you just take the cover off like a duvet and wash them.

without additional heat

Lies! Maybe it's just me, but I overheated under my weighted blanket and had to fight my way out of it.

I got one that is double sided. One side keeps heat in a lot more. So I can switch it up depending on the season and temperature. It's lovely.

I just use a sheet most of the time (even now in the winter) because I overheat easily (I don't really sweat).

I'm broke so even the bottom price of $35 seems expensive, anything marketed as "cooling" or just large-weave (?) is considerably more expensive. Large-weave seems like it'd be cooler, but that is coverless so that was my thinking.
