The material used to weight the blanket could easily disrupt its heat-absorbing and heat-conducting properties, rendering ambiguous any sort of "controlled" experiment. | |

| Aug 8, 2017 at 19:42 | comment | added | pipe | @BenBarden I have no idea, but I would like to try one. I would not be surprised if it helped me sleep. Let's hope we'll see some good answers to this question. | |
| Aug 8, 2017 at 19:20 | comment | added | Ben Barden | @pipe - Is there any indication that that actually works? | |
| Aug 8, 2017 at 19:02 | comment | added | pipe | @BenBarden I think the trick is that it hits all points, since it's just a heavy blanket. | |

| Aug 8, 2017 at 15:38 | comment | added | Ben Barden | I'm unclear how they expect a generally heavy blanket to hit specific pressure points. Am I missing something? | |
