Weighted Blanket 7 kg
After 5 kg, the 7 kg weighted blanket is the most searched-for weight. It corresponds to a body weight of 70 to 79 kg. Four models offer it: the all-season Cotton, the all-in-one Summer, the plush-and-cotton Soft, and the Kids blanket for teens of this build. Prices from $139.90, in 135 × 200 or 150 × 220 cm depending on the model.

What weight for your blanket?
Slide the cursor to your body weight: we apply the 10% rule and suggest the matching blanket weight and models.
- Recommended blanket weight
- 7 kg
- Recommended size
- 135 × 200 cm (up to 1.80 m) or 150 × 220 cm
Between two weights, take the lighter one.
Under 30 kg: kids' range, from age 3 and 15 kg. The child must be able to take the blanket off on their own. If in doubt, ask a healthcare professional for advice.
Why 7 kg for 70 to 79 kg
The starting point is about 10% of body weight. At 70 kg, 7 kg is spot on; at 78 kg, 7 kg is still the right choice, because between two weights you keep the lighter one. If this is your first weighted blanket, or if firm pressure easily takes you by surprise, starting with 6 kg is no mistake.
What each model offers in 7 kg

- You run hot at night or your bedroom is heated: the Summer, with no cover, goes whole into the washing machine at 30 °C on a delicate cycle.
- You want one blanket for the whole year: the breathable Cotton, with a cover washable at 40 °C.
- You are after a cosy, cocooning feel: the Soft, in 135 × 200 cm only.
Prefer the Winter, Premium or Sensory?
These three models go straight from 6 kg to 8 kg. In that case, you take the next lighter weight available, so 6 kg: someone weighing 75 kg who wants the Winter will choose the 6 kg version. You will find them in the 6 kg collection. To replace your duvet rather than use it alongside, the 6.5 kg weighted duvet is the closest equivalent.
Size and teens
The 135 × 200 cm covers one adult; move up to 150 × 220 cm if you are taller than about 1.80 m. The 7 kg Kids blanket is for teens weighing 70 to 79 kg, ideally in 110 × 170 cm: an adult checks the weight, and the teen must be able to take the blanket off on their own. Comfort product, not a medical device. If in doubt, or for a child, ask a healthcare professional for advice. Above 79 kg, see the 8 kg weighted blanket, and the size guide for dimensions.
Frequently asked questions
I weigh 80 kg: 7 kg or 8 kg?
At 80 kg, the 10% rule points to 8 kg. If this is your first weighted blanket or you are sensitive to pressure, 7 kg is a reasonable choice, since between two weights you keep the lighter one. A weight exchange is always possible.
Which 7 kg weighted blanket for summer?
The Summer, in double-sided cotton with no cover, is designed for summer, spring and autumn, and heated bedrooms. It comes in 7 kg in 135 × 200 cm from $139.90 and in 150 × 220 cm at $159.90.
Does the 7 kg Soft come in 150 × 220 cm?
No, the Soft comes in 135 × 200 cm only, at $179.90. If you are taller than about 1.80 m, the Cotton or the Summer in 150 × 220 cm, both available in 7 kg, will cover your body better.
