This Affordable Alternative To Weighted Blankets Hugs You To Sleep
Today we are going to continue a trend we inadvertently started a few weeks back. Following our reviews of the Snactiv and Saucemoto, we are once again going to cover a product that was featured on Shark Tank. Our newest entry in the series is the Sleep Pod, an alternative to the weighted blankets that have become so popular over the years.
The Sleep Pod is a carefully designed blanket pouch that wraps around you snugly, replicating the feeling of a nice warm hug. This has the effect of calming you down and helping you drift off to sleep. And because it is made for just one person, you don’t have to worry about the bulkiness of a weighted blanket irritating your bedmate.
When we wrote about weighted blankets a little over a year ago, we mentioned their incredible anti-anxiety benefits while lamenting their price tag. The Gravity Blanket, the gold standard of weighted blankets, still retails for close to $200. That is a lot! The Sleep Pod, on the other hand, is less than $100—even for the largest size. Speaking of which, it is available in six sizes: Kids, Tween, Small, Medium, Large, and X-Large. The child versions are $72.99, while the adult ones go for $82.99.
The most impressive part of the Sleep Pod’s design is how it adjusts to your sleeping position over the night. Whether you sleep in the fetal position or completely sprawled out on your back, the Sleep Pod will be sure to fit the contours of your body. No matter how old or young you are, how big or small, the Sleep Pod will have you sleeping like a baby.
