Great Sleep Changes Everything.

And we mean everything.

Your mood, immune system, memory, energy levels, motivation and mindset all do a happy dance when you get a good night’s sleep.

Well rested folks (a.k.a Sleep Heavy customers) make the world a brighter, calmer and happier place.

Good sleep is your secret weapon for happiness. Our weighted blankets make sure everyone gets to experience the benefits of quality sleep — especially those who struggle with relaxation and getting to sleep at night.

Made With Love, Engineered By Science.

Our weighted blankets use a method called ‘Deep Pressure Stimulation’ to relax your body and calm your nervous system.

The weight of your blanket triggers your body to make a switch from using your sympathetic nervous system (SNS) to your parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS).

Basically, your body will go from “fight or flight” mode, to “rest and digest”.

Mimicking the feeling of a comforting hug, our blankets help your heart rate slow, muscles relax and serotonin and melatonin to be released. It’s as if your entire body takes a deep breath, and calm washes over you.

I’m a hot sleeper, will Sleep Heavy blankets make me overheat?

Not at all. Although our blankets are heavy, they’re designed to be breathable, especially our bamboo and cotton blankets. Cotton and bamboo both helps regulate your body temperature by absorbing and retaining heat from your body, keeping you the perfect temperature all night long.

Can I return/exchange my blanket if I get the wrong weight?

Yes, of course, so long that it’s within 30 days. Simply send us an email to support@sleepheavy.co.nz to let us know you'd like to return or exchange your blanket.

How long does shipping take?

Your blanket will be dispatched from our Christchurch warehouse, and will be with you within 2-5 business days. Rural areas may take a day or two longer.

How will a Sleep Heavy weighted blanket help with my anxiety?

Our weighted blankets use a method called Deep Pressure Stimulation. The weight from your blanket encourages your body to make the switch from fight or flight to rest and digest, bringing a sense of calm and peace to your mind and body. You can find out more about how our blankets work here.

Loving the 9kg of extra weight!

Words I didn’t think would ever come out of my mouth - but I love having that extra weight over me at night. It’s so pleasant to sleep with. The silky smooth cover feels great on the skin and it keeps you both warm enough - yet cool enough - to have a restful sleep. Loving it.

Need more time or to take it away

I am un decided atm. I purchased for myself. I have used for 7 days in a row I think i should now take it away. My partner however loves it so I am glad I at least got the larger size so he can enjoy. Maybe send another survey in a week or so.

Bamboo King Sensory Blanket

I received my Bamboo Blanket 9kg a couple of weeks back. It has soon become my go to, and best inanimate object friend. I’ve been able to use the blanket with my mental awareness exercises. The benefits have been instant with stress and anxiety greatly reduced. No major panic attack’s. AS for my sleep. I live with Chronic restless leg syndrome. The blanket has been remarkable in reducing muscle tension. The Fabric is wonderful for sensory input. I really can’t recommend these high enough for mental and physical well being

Feedback

experience with purchasing blanket was excellent - easy website, great communication, arrived within short time frame. First experience with weighted blanket - it is alot heavier than I expected. Bought for my son who's gifted but he hated it, felt claustrophobic. But I'm using it and like it. Not sure how it'll feel as nights get warmer, time will tell

Kicking myself that I didn't buy one sooner

I have always been a bad sleeper, for most of my adult life. I finally bit the bullet after another spell of bad sleep and lots of anxiety in bed, and bought this weighted blanket. It is fantastic, I sleep so much better already, and it's only been a week. I still don't sleep perfectly, that's not really my aim, but I am getting far more sleep, and the feelings of anxiety I was having before have basically gone with this blanket. I got the largest size for our bed, and even my partner, who rarely has a bad sleep, said he feels like he is sleeping deeper.

Does what it says!!

Gone from an average of 2-3hrs sleep a night to an average of 6-7 in the space of 2wks. The rare nights I don't get much sleep I still get up feeling rested. A worthy investment.
