Hush Blankets Review

About Hush Blankets

One thing that has never changed for me since childhood is my need for a soft, warm, and cozy blanket. Say what you will, but they are just perfect for days when I am stressed, sad, sick, or just plain cold. What I didn’t know, however, was how many health benefits a weighted blanket can offer.

That’s where Hush Blankets comes in. The Canadian brand offers weighted blankets that are incredibly soft, comfortable, and therapeutic.

The combination of sweat-wicking and cooling technology with innovative materials such as non-toxic sand glass and microfibers is groundbreaking. The result is a scientifically proven, therapeutic, super soft, and cozy blanket—perfect for year-round use.

There are now countless brands offering weighted blankets, but one key difference that sets Hush Blankets apart from its competitors is that it does not fill the interior with additional fabrics. Instead, non-toxic sand glass is used in densely packed pockets to distribute the weight evenly and consistently.

In this review of Hush Blankets, I will give you an insight into the brand and its products so that you can make an informed purchase decision.

The blankets are designed to use DTPS (Deep Touch Pressure Stimulation) to reduce cortisol (stress hormones) and release serotonin (happiness hormones) and melatonin (sleep hormones). The result is deeper, faster, and longer sleep, which is perfect for children and adults who suffer from a range of conditions listed below:

Stress
Anxiety
Sleep disorders
Insomnia
ADHD
Obsessive-compulsive disorder
Sensory processing disorder

Hush Blankets has also launched its own “Hush GiveBack” program. For every five blankets sold, the brand donates one blanket to a child or adult in need. The company has also expanded its partnerships with organizations such as YMCA Greater Toronto, The Scott Mission, and Red Door Family Shelter to help people in need. It’s a wonderful project that is really making a difference in local communities.

Where Are Hush Blankets Made?

Hush Blankets does not clearly state where its products are manufactured. Instead, the brand emphasizes its collaboration with sleep experts in Canada and the technological aspects of its blankets, which I have already mentioned in this review of Hush Blankets and will continue to mention.

3 Bestselling Hush Blankets

Hush Classic

The classic weighted blanket with duvet cover that made Hush Blankets famous comes from the original collection. The Hush Classic is the brand’s flagship product and leaves nothing to be desired. Whether you suffer from stress, sleep disorders, or insomnia, the weighted blanket could be the solution. The outstanding comfort, softness, and flexibility meet all expectations—I never want to leave my bed.

I love everything about the Hush Classic. The outer shell has a texture that feels like melt-in-your-mouth on your skin, providing unmatched softness and comfort. The inner layer is made of microfibers from a blend of cotton and polyester, filled with non-toxic sand in deep pockets to ensure even weight distribution throughout the blanket.

Hush Blankets also offers a 2-in-1 package for summer and winter. Included are the inner weighted blanket, the Hush Classic with a duvet cover, and the cooling cover. The Hush Classic is great for year-round use, and the 2-in-1 set makes it even more versatile for hot and cold days.

Hush Iced

The Hush Iced is the original cooling weighted blanket designed by Hush Blankets. This special blanket is a new addition to the brand’s product range and is revolutionizing the market.

What I particularly love about this blanket is that it actually wicks away sweat. You might think that weighted blankets naturally absorb sweat due to their weight and the heat they give off, but that’s not the case with the Hush Iced.

It features a cooling cover made from a blend of cotton and bamboo, which provides an extra soft, temperature-regulating, and stretchy feel. The non-toxic sandglass filling distributes the weight evenly across the entire blanket, allowing you to enjoy the deep pressure stimulation provided by the weight while staying cool at the same time.

Another similar product from Hush Blankets is the Hush Iced Set, which includes a cooling sheet and pillowcases. The materials are made from the same bamboo, cotton, and spandex, making them great for any bed and perfect for regulating your temperature on hot days.

Hush Kids

The Hush Kids is the classic weighted blanket for children. The blanket was developed for children with sleep disorders and offers them the same feeling of security. In addition, the blanket has different patterns on both sides, making it ideal for playing. This makes your child’s den even cozier.

The Hush Kids is made of soft cotton and breathable microfibers, making the weighted blanket more flexible for your child. It offers the same benefits as adult blankets, including weighted materials and technologies that achieve the same therapeutic results for your child’s health and well-being.

Another series of weighted blankets for children offered by Hush Blankets is Iced Kids, the children’s version of Hush Iced. The cooling bamboo and cotton cover regulates temperature wonderfully, giving you a blanket you can use all year round.

Pricing

Price, value, and individual budget are important factors to consider before making a purchase decision. Brands that offer weighted blankets are expensive, and Hush Blankets is no exception. However, I find that while Hush Blankets are expensive, the investment is worth it, if not more.

As I mentioned in my Hush review, the technologies and materials used in their products have been scientifically proven to offer significant health benefits. The weighted blankets are also great for any season, making them a comfortable and practical choice.

Below, I’ve listed the brand’s products, sets, and bundles, along with their expected prices. All prices are in Canadian dollars, along with current discounts:

Weight & Sizes

Hush Blankets offers a simple but comprehensive selection of blankets for children and adults.

The range of weights and sizes offers a number of suitable options for beds from teen to king size. Although I found the presentation of the information a little confusing at first, I have divided it into the following sections in this Hush Blankets review: availability, weight overview, size overview, and recommendations.

It is important to note that you should do your research before purchasing, as the weight of the blanket depends on your individual weight, the number of people using the blanket at the same time, and the size of your bed.

Availability

Hush Blankets offers three different types of blankets and an additional package deal. Below you will find the sizes and weights available for each product line.

Although the information provided is tailored to a single person, further details on the respective circumstances can be found in the remaining sections.

Weight Guide

As mentioned earlier, I also appreciate the brand for scientifically ensuring that its products are suitable for different body weights.

Remember that the purpose and priority of the blankets is to distribute weight sufficiently across the user to achieve better sleep quality. Below are Hush Blankets’ recommendations for individuals based on their individual weight:

Size Guide

I find that Hush Blankets does an excellent job of covering all relevant sizes suitable for any bed.

I say this because the brand focuses on the idea that blankets are designed for swaddling and individual use. Although their children’s blankets are available in a standard size, the blankets are designed more for the weight of the user than their age or size.

Below are the exact measurements in inches for the available blanket sizes:

Classic Kids – 36 x 48
Teen – 42 x 72
Twin – 48 x 78
Queen – 60 x 80
King – 80 x 87

Recommendations

Choosing the right weight and size is crucial for maximum effectiveness.
The ideal weight of the blanket should be 10% of your individual body weight (rounded up).
Each person should have their own blanket, as body weight varies from person to person.
The heaviest queen-size blanket or two single blankets are ideal for two people.
